Description

Tamron AF 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di II LD Aspherical (IF) Macro Zoom Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras From the Manufacturer Tamron's original development of proprietary core technologies such as Aspherical element production, Multiple Cam Mechanism and Integrated Focus Cam design lend to the creation of the world's lightest, most compact 11x zoom lens made for digital SLR cameras. AF18-200mm F/3.5-6.3 XR Di II Highlights Di II Lenses are designed for exclusive use on digital cameras with smaller-size imagers and inherit all of the benefits of our Di products. These lenses are not designed for conventional cameras and digital cameras with image sensors larger than 24mm x 16mm. Extra Refractive Index Glass (XR) Extra Refractive Index (XR) glass can bend light rays at steeper angles, thereby decreasing the physical length of the lens while enhancing imaging performance by minimizing optical aberrations. This has allowed Tamron to develop a line of shorter, smaller-diameter, lighter lenses without sacrificing lens speed, and actually upgrading image quality compared to older designs. XR glass is costlier than conventional glass but it yields enhanced optical power distribution, making possible many of the outstanding and innovative lens designs that bear the XR designation. XR glass, with its superior light-bending power, makes it possible to design a short-barrel lens with the same light-gathering ability (aperture value) as a long-barrel lens—even with a smaller lens diameter. By using this principle Tamron has been able to shorten the length of the entire optical system and produce lighter, more compact lenses of the same speed, and also to provide greater zoom ranges in lenses that are much more convenient to carry by hand. Low Dispersion (LD) Low dispersion (LD) glass elements in a lens help reduce chromatic aberration; the tendency of light of different colors to come to different points of focus at the image plane. Chromatic aberration reduces the sharpness of an image, but glass with an extremely lowdispersion index, has less of a tendency to separate (defract) a ray of light into a rainbow of colors. This characteristic allows the lens designer to effectively compensate for chromatic aberration at the center of the field (on axis), a particular problem at long focal lengths (the telephoto end of the zoom range), and for lateral chromatic aberration (towards the edges of the field) that often occurs at short focal lengths (the wide-angle end of the zoom range.) Internal Focus (IF) Internal focusing (IF) provides numerous practical benefits to photographers including a non-rotating front filter ring that facilitates the positioning of polarizing and graduated filters, and more predictable handling because the lens length does not change during focusing. Even more important, Tamron’s Internal Focusing (IF) system provides a much closer minimum focusing distance (MFD) throughout its entire focusing range. In addition, IF improves optical performance by minimizing illumination loss at the corners of the image field, and helps to suppress other aberrations that become more troublesome at different focusing positions. Zoom Lock Another original Tamron mechanical engineering concept is the Zoom Lock (ZL), a simple convenience feature that prevents undesired extension of the lens barrel when carrying the camera/lens unit on a neck strap.

  • Excellent, this is the right lens.
Style: Canon Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
This is a perfect lens, as all terrain lens this has the hability to do a variety of great funtions as: Great Zoon, Very Aceptable focus speed, light, Hi queality pictures. This les is not expensive (less than $200), and as a extra benefit it include a tulip light cover, this prevent unwanted light coming into the lens, and prevent the lens to be hitten by any object. Some people have concern about the focus speed, and my experience with this is that the speed is fast enought for the all the mayor needs, it is important to mention that the differece between this lens and the $2,000 competitors is less than a second. Then, this lens is a great value item for your camera. About the lens focus in low light I dont have any problem, because in low light condition it is suppose that you will use flash, because this is not a extreme Hi Aperture lens (3.5-6.5 aperture), then if you plan to use flahs you will have the modeling light from the flash, and this will help you to focus, or you can use manual focus. This is not a exclusive situation for this lens, because all the lens with the same aperture has similar situations, some more, some less, but remember, this is a less than $200 lens. For me it is important to keep in mind, we need to evaluate the items in their category and levels. however, this lens is bether than others more expensive levels. I have Canon 70-300mm and Tamron 28-200mm, and Tamrom 28-90mm. and the traditional Canon 18-55mm, for me, this is the better one, because the image quality and the hability to have all the other lens in just one lens. As final i can say that you may think about your lens need, because if yor are only a Hobbie or entry or Mid Level photographer, maybe you dont need a Hi End lens, but if you makes photo sessions for $2,000, then it has sense that you buy accesories acording to your service offered. ... show more

  • Good Lens for the General Photographer
Style: Canon Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
The Tamron 18-200 lens is able to perform at a level exptected for this make and model of lens. The all plastic construction is firm, grip is good, well damped and light in weight. The lock button to prevent zoom creep is a nice feature but not really necessary. The hood is adequate. Pros: Light in weight. Fast auto-focus in daylight. A good consumer all-in-one lens that can do almost anything. Macro works well in bright light. Cons: Auto-focus hesitation in macro mode. At 200mm, satisfactory sharpness at f6.3, excellent sharpness at f 11 and beyond. Does not hold up against dust (keep it covered, in a case, or under a jacket when walking around. Dust gets into the internal barrel of the lens). Lens can get out of alignment if the lens gets banged around, and not made for abusive photographic conditions. Using the built in camera flash at 18mm (without the hood attached) will darken the lower portion of the picture. Tips: When you get the lens, immediately put on a 62mm UV filter to protect the front lens element. Finger prints not removed carefully can damage the coating. Get a case that will fit the camera with lens attached to minimize shock when walking or hiking. DO NOT switch lenses if you don't have to. This will minimize the dust that may enter the camera chamber. Use the lens hood. This is a good all in one lens for the non-professional. Good for family shots as well as "soccer moms" wanting to capture the action. Tamron has a good warranty and has good customer support. I'd suggest that after a year or so of use (or within warranty), have the lens checked by Tamron to realign and make necessary adjustments. I had the older Tamron for over 10 years with the film Canon and it has held up very well. It was sent to Tamron for alighment during the warranty period and worked better than new. This is an excellent lens for the Canon Digital Rebel. It compliments the camera by having a light weight all-in-one lens that will cover most photographers. If you are a serious or professional photographer (or own a Canon D20, D30, etc.) and if your budget allows, you might want to consider the Canon L lenses which has more exacting tolerances, seals against dust, and can handle the abuse. Tamron makes a good lens. Shop for the best price. ... show more

  • Tamron presents a value for a budget lens. Decide if it fits your needs.
Style: Canon Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
I've used and owned this Tamron lens for three plus years and has earned its place as a "go-to" lens for me. Due to the cheaper price point, it has become my favorite travel lens. This is because the wide focal range of 80 to 200. I can shoot little tiny birds far away, or people and objects relatively closer. Price is worth it: So you want a wide range of focals but you don't want to buy an 85mm 100mm, and 200mm and lug them around? Maybe it isn't in the budget. This lens is a great solution, and very versatile telephoto zoom lens. Big help with Ghosting and Flaring: Ghosting and flaring are a nightmare to any photographer. The reason ghosting and flaring occur can be directly linked to the lens. To counter this, buying a filter may be the most reasonable thing to do. This unnecessary cost doesn't assure you that ghosting and flaring won't occur because there are filters that have been known to aggravate the situation. It looks like a hopeless situation but there is an awesome solution by the name of Tamron AF 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di II LD Aspherical (IF) Macro zoom lens. It is mainly for the Canon Digital SLR cameras (model A14E). It can also work with any EOS digital cameras. Tamron's macro zoom lens has internal coating that reduces ghosting and flaring. It rocks the highly recommended flowered shaped lens hood. This external design has been known to bear elevated presentation and high precision images. The extra refractive index glass that makes this lens also reduces aberration by winding light rays at sharper angles thus reducing the physical lens without compromising on the speed of the lens. You have to give it to Tamron for having core features in-built. Good Internal Filter & Optics: The IF (Internal Focus) has a static anterior filter ring that aids in effective handling by ensuring that the lens does not change during focusing. This IF also provides minimum focusing distance (MFD) during the focusing period. The zoom lock in the lens thwarts unnecessary leeway of the lens tub when carrying the camera around the neck. Tamron's macro zoom lens allows you to take excellent images with switching lens from close range to far away by zooming the shots. This walk with lens allows one to take wide angle shots (around 18mm-20mm) and if you want to get a great telephoto lens of around 200mm, then all you have to do is twist the zoom ring. The only shortcoming is that this lens does not have an inbuilt image stabilizer so a tripod would come in handy if you need the lens to be steady. Slight Blur: There can blurriness and deficiency of sharpness at lengths over 100mm and a tripod would compensate for this. Auto focusing is also slow if you are focusing on a slow moving object. With so many pros you would expect Tamron Macro zoom lens to cost a leg and an arm. This lens goes for $199.00. Nikon's 18-200mm VR lens goes for $700 yet it does the same task as the Tamron's lens. With Tamron, you get value for money and their 6 year US warranty is a reassurance that their product delivers on what it promises. Focus Can be Slow: Auto focusing is also slow if you are focusing on a slow moving object. If you are trying to focus on a dog playing in a yard, forget about it. It just will not do the job. It will frusterate you to no end. Also for sports, or shooting your children playing in the yard, it is not a great tool for that. ... show more

  • Excellent at this price.
Style: Canon Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
The Good: -Wide Zoom Range -Low Price -Compact Size and Weight. -Good Optics/Great at this price point. -Decent Macro Performance for a Zoom -Well Constructed -Includes Lens Hood. The Bad: -Autofocus is slower and noisier than my Canon Lenses -In Dim light, It often hunts for focus. I was looking for a lens to take hiking that would replace several in my camera bag. It needed to cover a wide zoom range and be compact. I was actually considering one of the better point and shoots, but at $200 I figured I should at least try this lens on my canon rebel. I am not disappointed. Lens is well constructed, reasonably sharp, and compact. No, it doesn't focus like my USM canon lenses, but for what I want it for, it is a perfect lens. I gave it 5 stars because at $200, it is a tremendous value. The outdoor shots are reasonably sharp and macros at are quite good for a zoom of this range and price. However, if you do a lot of indoor shooting, buy a faster lens - this one does not focus well in dim light. ... show more

  • Love It Love It
Style: Canon Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Face it, you're not going to get an "L" lens for this price. As long as you accept this fact I think you'll love this lens. This is one of the two lenses I bought for my first DSLR camera - a Rebel XT. For less than $1,200 I got the camera body, this lens, the Canon 50mm f/1.8, a tripod, a 4GB Ultra-card, and a Samsonite carrying case. I think I did pretty good! Back to the Tamron lens: I wanted one lens to carry around and to learn the ins and outs of shooting with an SLR. This lens fits the bill perfectly. I can take nice group and landscape shots with the lens at 18mm and can get nice and close to far away things by zooming in. The AF is quick and quiet in my experience. If you're shooting sky or big areas of low contrast (like walls) it's best to switch to manual focusing, which works just fine. I screwed a UV filter on right away to protect the lens and the threads were well-machined. In fact, the entire lens just feels like much more expensive glass. It's solid. Naturally, when setting this lens at 50mm and comparing the shots with the Canon 50mm f/1.8, the Canon will give slightly sharper results and will work better indoors without flash. But that's why I bought the Canon f/1.8 in the first place ... to supplement the Tamron. With these two lenses I think I can spend the next year or so learning SLR photography. Then, I can start investing in better glass. But for under $1,200 I would recommend this set-up for both beginners and experienced photographers. And before I forget; using the macro function at 200mm results in very sharp images. I was quite surprised and pleased at how sharp they were. Zoom ... telephoto ... wide-angle ... macro. All in one lens. Can't beat it! ... show more

  • S-L-O-W focus lens
Style: Canon Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
took this on a recent trip to Cuba (yes, Cuba... I went there legally to do "religious encouragement"... at least that's what I told the State department... I actually wanted to do some taste tests of local rum) This is a decent walk-around lens, and paired with my Canon T1i produced lots of usable photos, but on the whole it just isn't that great. The vignetting is quite noticeable, the distortion and chromatic aberration was bearable but also noticeable, and the colors weren't as saturated as I would have liked. BUT!!! It's cheap and it covers a HUGE range, meaning it really does do quite a bit for significantly lower cost than one of the astronomically overpriced canon lenses. I could live with everything else given the price (truly a steal for this price) except the slow focusing. Especially in medium-low light this thing would just sit and spin (and I never liked those even when I was a kid... I used to get dizzy and throw up... maybe this just brings that to mind and makes me want to vomit). About a dozen really great shots were flubbed because this lens simply didn't focus quickly enough. If you take pictures of landscapes and people that pose for the picture and don't move and want the versatility in a single reasonably priced lens, then this lens would be great for you. It's light and not too big and takes reasonably decent photos (especially for the price). I decided I couldn't deal with the slow focus and upgraded to the canon L series (at 4 times the cost I get less range but better sharpness and faster focus). ... show more

  • This lens is terrible!
Style: Canon Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
I bought this lens to replace to an old Promaster all-in-one that I really liked but it broke - too old to fix. Twice I've taken the Tamron 18-200mm out and put it through its paces, shooting lots of close-up and telephoto shots. I have several lenses and this one is clearly the worst. The focus is almost always fuzzy, the image hazy with color aberrations. In comparison, I've used my Canon EFS 55-250mm lens in similar situations and have gotten spectacular results! When I considered buying this lens, I read the Amazon reviews of it and I had high expectations for this lens. I consider myself a power user (though I can't afford the really good lenses) I know how to work my lenses and this Tamron lens FAILED! This NOT a good lens. It's a mediocre. There are similarly prices lenses out there that are better than this one. The Canon EFS 55-250mm is definitely a winner when compared to the Tamron AF 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di II LD. ... show more

  • Great Lens for the Money!
Style: Canon Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
I've had both IS and non IS, I have found that for the price this is a very handy lens to have. It works great outside, and as long as you have a semblance of a half way steady hand then not having the IS won't be a problem. Some of the issues you might encounter with this lens is when it comes to shooting in lower light situations, for example trying to take pictures inside especially at night if the room is not heavily lit. In that case the IS would help but that would only take you so far. Part of that is due to the lens speed. I found that if you take more pictures and try to stay aware of light you should do just fine. I love that this lens has the wide angle and the ability to super zoom. This has become my main travel lens, because of its versatility. For the price you can't beat it, I think its like $199 and just starting off as a new photographer its a good start. Yes there are better lenses out there BUT you will pay a Lot more for them as well. ... show more
