Tamron B003 Lens for Sony
Consumer Reviews
You'll love this Lens, but it's not perfect
Glad I bought this lens when I did - even though the price has dropped since I bit the bullet.
Why I waited...
I was drooling over the thought of having so much range in one lens, but the cheap Tamron 28-80mm that came with my Sony A55 kit scared me off the Tamron name. Someone told me...

Tamron AF 18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II PZD LD Aspherical IF Macro Zoom Lens with Built in Motor for Sony DSLR Cameras
The acclaimed Tamron 18-270mm VC all-in-one zoom for APS-C format DSLRs has reached an astonishing new level of compactness, performance, and speed with the addition of PZD (Piezo Drive), an innovative ultrasonic autofocus motor based on an advanced piezoelectric design. The result is a lens that’s considerably lighter, noticeably shorter with a much slimmer profile than any previous lens in its class, and provides faster, quieter auto-focusing. Signature features that have made this amazingly versatile lens the world standard in its class have been retained. They include a 28-419mm equivalent (15X) zoom range, an improved compact and lightweight Vibration Compensation (VC) system, macro focusing to 19.3 inches throughout, and, of course, superlative imaging performance. Technical Specifications: Focal Length; 18-270, Maximum Aperture: F/3.5 – 6.3, Angle of view (diagonal): 75°33′- 5°55′, Lens construction: 16 elements, 13 groups, Minimum focus distance: 19.3 in (0.49m), Maximum magnification ratio: 1: 3.8 (at f=270mm: MFD 0.49m), Filter size: Ø62mm, Length: 3.8 in (96.4mm), Diameter: Ø74.4mm (2.9 in), Weight: 450g (15.9 oz), No. of diaphragm blades: 7, Minimum aperture: F/22 - 40, Standard accessories: Flower-shaped lens hood.

Tamron 18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD Aspherical Sony DSLR With 6-Year USA Warranty - PRI
MAIN FEATURES World's first and greatest zoom ratio of 15X, covering 28-419mm 35mm-equivalent angle of view Going back to the basic concept of "one lens covering everything from wide angle to telephoto," engineers at Tamron took up the difficult task of expanding the zoom range of Tamron's high power zoom lenses even further. Their unstinting efforts to extend the telephoto end beyond previous limits while retaining the wide-angle end at 18mm has borne fruit as an ultra high power zoom lens that is exclusively designed for DSLR cameras and boasts the greatest zoom range of 15X for the first time in the world. Tamron's original VC mechanism for effective shake-free hand-held photography Tamron's proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) mechanism was built in the AF28-300mm F/3.5-6.3 Di VC (Model A20) for the first time. It demonstrated its powerful compensation effect employing a tri-axial system that is designed to let three coils drive a compensator lens electromagnetical ly via three steel balls. Since the compensator lens is supported on rolling steel balls with very low friction, follow-up performance is also enhanced, resulting in stabilized viewfinder images. Since the mechanism is designed to allow parallel shifting of the compensator lens solely by means of electrical control, the mechanical construction is simpler and more compact, so the lens can be kept as small and light as possible. Designing a high power, compact zoom lens with VC mechanism: Optical design optimization meets optimum power distribution In developing the long-range zoom lens, Tamron's optical designers pursued the optimum distribution of power within the overall optical system based on the optical design know-how Tamron accumulated over 16 years since the introduction of the first compact AF28-200mm in 1992. The resulting optical system uses two LD (Low Dispersion) glass elements and three aspherical elements in order to effectively compensate for various aberrations including astigmatism, yet this design allows the first optical group to be small enough in diameter to realize the overall goal of a compact lens that incorporates a handheld-shake compensation mechanism. Note: In order to realize the high zoom ratio of 15X, the optical system does not use any XR (extra dispersion glass) element. Instead, compactness is achieved through optimization of the power distribution within the whole optical system. Minimum focusing distance of 19.3" over the entire zoom range for the max. mag. ratio of 1:3.5 The AF18-270mm Di II VC allows close focusing down to 0.49m (19.3 inches) from the subject over the entire zoom range even though it incorporates the VC mechanism. The maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.5* at its 270mm telephoto end is the top class capability among high power zoom lenses exclusively designed for digital SLR cameras. *A format covered by an APS-C sized image sensor is smaller than that of 35mm
