It is nice to have a telephoto lens with automatic focus. It helps me become better acquainted with my relatively new camera. I am just getting started with this new lens. Will be taking it on a trip next week to really test it. So far I am very pleased with it.

I LOVE it!! I had considered the Nikon 55-300 and Sigma 18-250 also. This lens looked like the better option. I am so happy I chose this. Taken lots of shots and really impressed! Focuses really quickly (33% faster than my kit lenses), really sharp and was amazed my on-camera flash covers the full frame. I have a Nikon D5200 and it complements it perfectly. It bought a used one which is in like new condition. I also like that it is a weighty lens which matches the camera body's weight really well. I took some shots with on-board flash and was amazed that the flash covered all areas. The VR is great. Took some shots at 1/60th second and they are nice and sharp. The lens creep is crazy from 55mm on, lol!! but I can live with that. AF motor is really quiet.

First time i have purchased on line for an item like this and couldnt decide over this or the nikon 18-300mm but the price was to gòod not to go. Item arrived in 2 days which was impressive from UPS . Works well on my D3400 it looks new and other than not in original box i csnt fault it although the auto focus seems a little scratchy but pictures are clear but only taken a few

I upgraded my Nikon Camera and wanted a newer lens...I love the Tamron lenses so I sold my 18-250 and purchased the 18-270, a newer and more powerful lens on Ebay...have used it in the field and it is more than great, takes wonderful pics...with the range, I miss out on very little...it could be a bit lighter but once you get used to it, no problem ...very happy with my new setup...thanx Tamron....Ron T

I am getting back into photography after many years - my last serious camera was a Minolta XE1 35 mm. I purchased a Nikon body but was unhappy with 18-55mm lens that came with it - it wasn't flexible enough to handle general needs of people portraits, candids, and landscapes. I tried a moderately priced Nikon zoom which took excellent pictures but was short to mid telephoto and couldn't take a wide angle shot. I disliked carrying two lenses and switching them. After some research I settled upon the Tamron, which was at a good price point and has both wide angle and moderate telephoto capabilities. I'm happy with the purchase so far. I don;t have to change lenses to get the pictures I want. I was at a party with family and children and was able to get pictures of large groups and candids of individuals without being obtrusive. I was a little concerned about picture quality - it turns out that the pictures look sharp and clear at any magnification. The lens is easy to use and the autofocus is smooth and fast, just pick the focal lens and the lens does the rest. The lens is light and short, making it easy to carry, point and swing - it's MUH lighter than a Nikon zoom lens I had. I've used the Tamron for a couple of months now and have enjoyed it immensely - I will continue to use it as my go to lens and don;t see any reason why I would want another. Read full review
