I am using this 18-200mm lens with a Nikon D3100 camera. This camera uses a smaller sensor size than a full-size SLR. This means that all "mm" specifications have to be multiplied by 1.5. That makes this lens a 27-300mm wide-angle to zoom eqeuivalent, which I like, because I prefer to have more zoom than more wide angle -- and 27mm wide angle is already enough. 300mm is the equivalent of a 6x zoom lens. The lens is reasonably compact at 3.5 inches long. Wen not extended, it is the size of my hand wrapped around it, so a comfortable size. When zoomed all the way, the lens extends by another 3 inches. The aperture is small (f3.5 for wide angle and f6.3 for maximum zoom), but that is to be expected with this low of a price. Since zoom photos are always taken outdoors, this is not too much of a problem. The filter ring size is 62mm, but it comes with a sun shade which also help keep fingers off the glass. The lens works exactly as you would expect: manual zoom control, auto or manual focus. In addition, the anti-vibration can be turned off, which you want off at slow shutter speeds. There is a lock that keeps the lens from extended by accident, such as when you carry the camera hanging down. Read full review

Don't make the mistake I did in thinking this was gonna let me take good images of far away objects. It just is not very strong. It also is very limited on the other end, you can't get good shots very close up. The middle range is nice and sharp.

This Tamron lens is an improvement over the previous version of this lens from Tamron. The reviews on it spoke of sharper images. I would agree with that. This is significantly cheaper than the Nikon version of this lens and is smaller and more light weight from my observation. Shot wide open in most focal lengths you will experience some vignetting, however, the best images come from around the middle area of the F stops and for sure the vignetting disappears at that point.

Received the lens and the first picture taken was of my wife. She has to perform her “quality control” on any pics of her. She was amazed at the detail level in the pic. I used it to take pics during Thanksgiving. With a family of about 20 gathering at my home, taking a family pic around the dinner table provided great results. Having the ability to take candid pics from across the room to preset up close poses and not having to switch lenses was very nice. Very happy with this lens.

An excellent lightweight DSLR lens capable of taking sharp pics. Smooth, quiet operation. Lens works perfectly well with my Nikon D3100. Sample pics taken with the lens given. Reasonably priced. Good value for money. Absolutely happy with owning and using it in my random outdoor photography sessions. Indoor pics are also good.
