Taron Lenses, meeting expectations , every time.....

Advantages: Initial Cost is far less then the original Canon and Nikon lenses
Disadvantages: The only negative point I see is the requirement of UV protection film on the lens for protection.

I have been using Tamron lens and have particularly a very good experience, the prices too are very commutative and obviously the picture quality is on par with the original , the price difference between the genuine Canon and Nikkon lenses to Tamron len ...

Review of Tamron SP AF10-24mm F/3.5-4.5 Di II

A must have lens for any photographer

This is a great lens and will suite most amateur photographers needs. The detail and sharpness even at full zoom is fantastic even when hand held. The lens itself is light but feels very ruggedly built and is constructed of high quality glass which you wo ...

Review of Tamron 572D - telephoto zoom lens - 70 mm - 300 mm F/4.0-5.6

Review of Tamron SP AF 17-50mm F2.8 XR Di II LD (IF)

Tamron is best for tight budget

Advantages: Versatile, good range and great if you're constantly on the move.
Disadvantages: A bit too slow, not as sharp but will improve when you know its habits.

I bought my Tamron 28-300mm lens from Jessops, it was on offer at the time, I think I only paid £199. I've used it for a number of different shooting scenarios because of its flexibility regarding wide angle and zoom. Pros: I really like the range. ...
