All zoom lenses involve some degree of compromise, usually in speed and optical performance. The longer the zoom range, the more compromises one should expect so it was gratifying to find the performance of the review lens better than anticipated, given i...
Abstract: Last updated: November 2, 2018Whether you've grown tired of what came with your DSLR, or want to start photographing different subjects, a new lens is probably in order. Whether you're looking to take close-ups, sports photos or interiors, we've got some...
Good levels of sharpness for a superzoom, Customisation via optional console, Built-in vibration control
Fringing can be noticeable at 300-400mm, Only available for Canon and Nikon APS-C DSLRs, No focus distance on lens barrel,
This lens is the superzoom of choice if you want maximum telephoto reach. However, Tamron's 16-300mm has a slightly wider angle of view, is smaller and lighter inweight, and better value for money...

22.2x zoom ratio, Solid image quality, Image stabilization, Moisture-resistant design, 1:2.9 macro magnification, Available for Nikon and Canon SLRs,
Wide-open performance suffers beyond 300mm, Shows some chromatic aberration at longer focal lengths, Visible distortion, Focus ring rotates during AF
The Tamron 18-400mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC HLD covers an incredible zoom range, from wide angle to super telephoto, and while it doesn't match lenses with shorter ratios in image quality, it betters them in convenience...

Proper correction of longitudinal chromatic aberration, Lack of problems with spherical aberration, Sensible coma correction at the shortest focal length, Low vignetting at longer focal lengths, Efficient image stabilization
Weak image quality at the maximum relative aperture on the edge of the frame and across the whole focal range, High level of lateral chromatic aberration at 50 and 400 mm, Significant distortion at 18 mm and in the 35100 mm focal range, A bit too high ast
Of course any demanding fan of photography would spot the flaws of the tested lens. If you prefer good image quality across the frame and a better, more efficient autofocus unit it would be more sensible to divide the 18-400 mm range into two lenses. Stil...
Amazing focal range, Low price tag versus other large zoom lenses, Both Nikon DSLR and Canon DSLR versions available, Improved image quality throughout range versus previous Tamron zoom lenses, Easy to use controls on the lens, Lens moves through its zoom
Image quality not good enough for advanced photographers, Noticeable barrel distortion at smallest focal length, Slight sharpness problem at maximum focal length, Some sharpness issues at high f-stop numbers, Some chromatic aberration problems, Not really
