  1. Rockhound5591

    Used this lens for sports events. After editing the pics they still were sharp. The only down side is when zooming in, it becomes harder to rotate. This is still maniable.

  2. MegF

    Outstanding photos taken from our safari in South Africa!
    My son in law was thrilled with the lens and the camera!

  3. RodneyE

    This lens is an excellent lens. It serves as an around lens.

  4. DianeH

    This is a replacement lens for my husband. He really enjoys being able to use just one lens to take all of his pictures. The range is excellent and the pictures turn out awesome!!

  5. RonaldR

    Love this lens! Since the weather is so cold, I really haven’t given it a long test, but so far so good! I’m still getting use to it. Can’t wait for this MN weather to warm up and give it a real test!

  6. AndrewJ

    Best All-In-One lens I’ve ever used. Solid professional look. A little heavy but very durable. Helped me get one of my favorite squirrel pictures.

  7. Stella1006

    Enjoying my new lense! Takes a little bit to get use to the weight and ability to focus, but I’m enjoying trying it out!

  8. JasonS

    Great for sports!!!!!¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  9. Bigdaddyj

    This is a great all purpose lens for events and travel. Works for up close portrait as well as wildlife at a distance. Coupled with an adapter, it also worked with the new mirrorless bodies.

  10. CynthiaF

    Love this lens, it has a great range makes for a great walkaround lens.

  11. KathyB

    Love this…no need to keep switching out my lenses!

  12. MNGranny

    Worked just as I thought. Was able to take many pictures from different distances.

  13. Kaleb

    The photos I’ve taken with this lens are noticeably a look more blurry than other lenses I have even when they are completely in focus and the camera is on a tripod. There is also a decent amount of vignette when you zoom all the way in but its overall a pretty good lens for the price.

  14. Dogmom

    I love this lens for baseball games . I usually shoot with my 70 to 200 2.8 but i have really enjoyed this lens. Its a little sliw but so much lighter

  15. GudmundurS

    A very good all purpose lens for different type of photography. Could use a bigger aperture as it has some issues in dim light

  16. ChrisM

    Great lens with a crazy range. I only wish it could be a little sharper. But there’s reason this lens is the price it is. And when you have such a huge zoom range you’re compromising on image quality.

  17. Brian

    Works really well and easy to use. Have use the lends indoors and outdoors.

  18. Natalie

    I think It is good and can zoom from super far away which is pretty awesome. I can’t get it to focus sometimes, but I am still a newbie at photography so maybe that’s just the case. Otherwise, It works great for my Cannon camera.

  19. arunkumar23k

    Great lens, much lighter than my canon 18-200mm lens and surprisingly the same size about my canon. So I have now worries in fitting this gear in my same bag. Bought this based on some of the neutral reviews on the basis of what it can do vs. cannot. Really worth for the price and I am able to make it work per the need! Still a lot to explore with this lens.

  20. Weebeemcgee

    DOES NOT work with Canon 5D mark II

    The lens specifications clearly states this works with the mentioned camera. However, this lens is more for EF-S cameras, not EF cameras. As you can see in my images, thre is a barrel ring that happens. I think this is due to the 5D mark II being a full frame camera.

    If you have a EF-S, this is probably a good lens but for full frame/EF mount cameras, look elsewhere.

  21. PeterG

    Scored some serious brownie points with my girlfriend. Great quality at a significantly lower price than OEM lens

  22. Angelica

    I was skeptical buying off-brand, but the price and reviews were very enticing. I’m impressed with the quality of the photos. The times I used it were on overcast days and evening hours, with the use of a tripod I was able to get good-quality photos on max zoom. Haven’t used it for any lunar shots, that’s my next test for it. I’d recommend this lens if you want decent-quality shots on a budget.

  23. Axel

    Love this lens works great on my Canon M50. Landscape and close up shots

  24. Excellent

    Best part is if you are in a huge wedding party and theres people walking around you can take close up pictures from a designated spot without being pushed around or having to excuse ppl …very powerful appearance capture apptitude !

  25. ELJLLC

    For the price its not to bad. Little heavy for my R50 but does the job. Focus quick, but when handheld it may take just a little longer to focus again just a little. Special for the price point. It was a choice between this and the Canon 100-400 and end up with this one the Tamron 18-400 for the seal and variaty. First photo is on the Canon and second is Tamron. Both handheld at about 60feet

  26. Marbleman

    I was looking at the Canon lens at close to $3000.00 this one is about $700.00. The pictures so far have been very clear, and sharp so I am very satisfied.

  27. Andi

    This lens definitely reduced the time spent on lens changes. It has also assisted in helping me step up my game with producing quality shots. I absolutely love it!!!!

  28. user286057

    Compact and wide telephoto capability. Great for my business and personal use.

  29. Unknown

    Working good so far without any problems. Taking good pics!

  30. CrystalH

    Great lens! Ive never used any brand of lens outside of Canon. But just cant afford canon brand in a lens this size. Got this lens as a birthday present and was excited to try it out. I use a Canon rebel T5, and the lens works great with it. Took a little bit to get used to because its backwards lol this lens is opposite to canon when it comes to twisting it to zoom in and out. But overall great lens!

  31. Kenny

    This is a very versatile camera lens with huge range. In theory, this one lens can do it all, but sometimes it has a hard time focusing and pictures come out very blurry. Overall, not what I expected.

  32. CarolM

    Css as my wait to get out and use it…I’ve always wanted to be able to take pictures…more clear pictures from a distance

  33. NickM

    Great picture quality. Auto focus is amazing. Wish we would have bought this sooner.

  34. Duncan

    Solid quality. Use the app. Helpful settings. Great image quality

  35. JimM

    Great lens. No need to carry 2 lenses for those shots.

  36. Kaycarlyle

    I just got into photography, and let me tell you, this camera lense is definitely beginner friendly, it has a perfect range between close ups and far away. I hardly ever have to switch between lenses, I can just use this one for everything it’s amazing! Absolutely would recommend to everyone! Not even just beginners, everyone should have these lenses! They have an option for canon and Nikon.

  37. Gkay

    I use a Canon 7D Mark II and since the Tamron 18-400mm pairs only with APS-C cameras, it has been very convienient just to carry a single lens rather have multiple lenses. Professionals mights not like the image quality when shooting beyond 300mm but does a great job for shooting pictures upto 250mm. Overall, a great lens and the only one you will need especially during travel.

  38. SpecialConsepts

    It’s a great cleanse for bringing subjects in a lot closer to take better photos, bought this lease to take photos that are far away

  39. LisaA

    Love it so far. It’s been a great lens for all my current photography I am taking. No need to change lens, all my photos look great.

  40. ctitanic

    If you believe that your DSLR or mirrorless camera take better photos than your iPhone then this lens is for you. It’s an all around lens, the lens that you take in a trip. It’s not a lens to shoot a wedding or perfect portraits. I’m using in an R7 with an adapter.

  41. BrendaG

    Great lens, diversity use and overall light lens pictures are crisp and clean

  42. MelissaS

    This lens was recommended by a friend and I have not been disappointed. I use it practically everyday and am amazed at the close up shots I can now take without switching lenses every time.

  43. Mandieecat

    I shoot a lot of wildlife photography, some landscape & flowers. I have grown attached to this lens. It is on my beginner camera, Cannon rebel T7. This lens will sometimes disappoint & not focus on what I want it to focus on. But using this lens for as long as I have almost everyday, I am extremely impressed with it. Being a wildlife photographer it is already challenging to get that perfect shot that you want but I am getting better every day & would recommend this lens to anyone! It is weightless (compared to other lens I see) & perfect for traveling. I always have it around my shoulder & got a crossbody strap for it when im outside & taking walks. I always get so many compliments on the lens as well. The range is incredible for shooting wildlife & landscape. I can pretty much capture anything with it. Sometimes the wildlife is too far away for the animal to be in focus all of the time which can be pretty frusterating for me but I sharpen all of my photos through LR. But if the object is closer to you and you zoom all the way in it is GOLDEN. I even have snapped pics of little bugs and they have turned out amazing for it not even being a micro lens. If you are looking for something weightless & to travel with to take landscape and shoot some wildlife I would recommend this for you.

  44. PhilipB

    Great lens with high quality images. Provide a dynamic range to capture images ranging from landscape to sports photography. Would recommend paring with the Canon EF body system. Will work with Canon RF body system via adapter.

  45. AnnetteM

    this lens has helped me get rid of having to switch from two lenses.

  46. ElizabethG

    A very long reach..clear photos if used with tripod

  47. Sammy

    Great Lense For My Canon Camera / Easy Purchase / Quick Delivery

  48. CThomas21

    Great lens. I tried to use this with a canon m50 mark II but it’s too big and heavy. Trying to zoom in would be a problem and would cause the lens to stick a bit

    Works much better with canon r7.

    Great for zoom and travel photography since you won’t have to change lenses.

    It is very heavy and hard to be discreet because of the lens size.

  49. RobertP

    Great product the pictures turned out just as I hoped. No problems with anything from 18 to 400mm.

  50. Thomas5007

    Great lens, works my cannon camera as advertised. Definitely great for wildlife photography!
