Product Description: With the advent of the latest 15X zoom lens from Tamron, the pioneer of high power zoom lenses, the high power zoom lens has steadily evolved from a 7.1X to a 10.7X to a 13.9X and now to the worlds largest zoom ratio of 15X by combining advanced high power zoom design technologies accumulated by Tamron since 1992. The lens covers an angle of view equivalent to that of a 28mm wideangle to a 419mm ultra telephoto with just one lens, letting the user capture once-in-the-lifetime images of panoramic landscape images or close-up pictures of children smiling, without having to get too close to the subject and without having to change lenses. For Nikon Digital SLRs.
Amazon.com Product Description: Camera shake can ruin your photos, particularly when taking telephoto shots or shooting in low light conditions. The Tamron 18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 macro zoom lens, however, fights camera shake with its state-of-the-art vibration compensation (VC) mechanism, which delivers blur-free handheld images for incredible results. The proprietary VC mechanism employs a three-coil system that moves the VC lens electromagnetically based on signals originating from the movement of three steel balls. The lens element that compensates for vibration is held in place by the balls, so there is little friction and the movement is quite smooth. The end result is a technology that makes it possible to create exceptional images at slower shutter speeds under conditions where a tripod used to be necessary. You can also use subject movement to good effect with the lens, bringing out the contrast between motion and stillness, or shoot without a flash to evoke the genuine atmosphere of the scene. The lens covers an extremely broad range of focal lengths, from an extra-wide 18mm length to a telephoto 270mm length (the 35mm equivalent of 28mm to 419mm). The resulting 15x zoom ratio is the world's largest, representing a wide cross section of Tamron high-power zoom design technologies. Plus, the vibration compensation works throughout the entire zoom range, giving you the freedom to create a wide variety of images. The lens lets users capture once-in-a-lifetime panoramic landscape images or close-up pictures of children smiling, all without getting too close to the subject or changing lenses. Other details include a macro magnification range of 1:3.5, a minimum focusing distance of 19.3 inches, and a 72mm filter diameter. The lens, which measures 3.1 inches in diameter and 3.9 inches long, carries a six-year warranty.

I have 2 of Nikon's finest lenses that give me from 24 to 200 mm... I was looking for a single lens that would cover what these 2 Nikon lenses do. Also... the larger of the 2 Nikon lenses is just that... LARGE. I am an avid outdoors photographer and found the Tamron lens to be very adequate for my purposes, and gives me the added range of 18 to 270 mm. All 3 lenses are Image Stabilizing. I agree with previous reviews in that the lens is a little more firm when moving it up to about 150 mm and ... Read More

I bought this lens in our local store(Robis Camera) here in lakewood, Washington. I could bought a nikon 18-200 (online) for the price I pay $599.00 plus tax Total of $650.00. But I like the fact,if I have a problem its only 4 miles away. Plus I need to support the local economy. By the time I got out in the store, I did a lot of quick shot outside, kind of cloudy. I also holding the camera in my lap and do a lot shot while driving (traffic is minimal, not recommend to do in highway while doing 70MPH. ... Read More

I agree with the previous reviewer. The lens is struggling to focus indoor (Couldn't get the focus or takes 5-10 seconds) with the decent lighting conditions (6 recessed lights; 12*15 Room; All lights were lit with full power) where as my other old Nikon lenses (28-80G, 70-300G) takes fraction of a second to focus the same subject with the same lighting conditions indoor.
If the zoom range is more than 50mm, the lens is struggling for the focus. For the same lighting and the same subject, ... Read More

Under low light condition (normal indoor lighting) the AF is very slow and sometimes cannot find the focus. In the latter case, it oscillate about the focus position. It can keep on oscillating like this maybe forever. Such situation is very easy to find for demonstration.
Actually, since I bought new both this lens and a D300, I was wondering whether it was the body or the lens which was the problem. After much time surfing the web and comparison with cameras in demonstration in shops with ... Read More

Great lens, VR works perfect. Pictures are sharp for amateur standards. I tried Sigma 18-200 OS and Nikon 18-200 VR before this lens, and Tamron's super zoom and VR are better than Nikon, colors are better, IQ and sharpness better than Nikon as well. AF is slower than Nikon. Sigma is the worst (stay away). This is not a pro lens, and for it is consumer target, it is the best lens around. Very compact, and lets you take dim light 270mm pictures with it is state of the art VR. I am using it with my Nikon D90. ... Read More
