    Feedback on the Tamron 18-270, and some photos from Singapore – jrarsenault posted up some nice pictures taken with the lens.

    The VC (Vibration Control) is impressive, and jrarsenault says:

    This lens is not “L” class, but it is very respectable. I’ve been very pleased with the lens and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a one lens solution for a holiday or trip.

    Tamron 18-270 at a Soccer Game – Really nice soccer game photos by “cubsfan61″, who mounted the Tamron AF 18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC LD Aspherical IF Macro Zoom Lens (Nikon mount) on a Nikon D90 Digital SLR camera to photograph this set of images.

    I’m reproducing his opinion on the Tamron lens that’s found in a related forum post:

    I had the Nikon 70-300VR and it’s a great lens. For my uses, though, I found the 70 wasn’t wide enough. Also I’m going on a European cruise later this month and wanted an all in one option, so I didn’t miss shots while changing lenses. So, I picked up the Tamron 18-270.

    I have only had it a week, but so far have noticed no lens creep. In fact the lens is rather “tight” in the middle of the zoom range, which I imagine helps to eliminate the creep.

    Here are some shots from my niece’s soccer game. I think the sharpness is pretty good, considering it’s a fast moving sport. I also found the focus speed of the Tamron pretty good. Not as fast as the Nikon, but still pretty quick.

    Tamron 18-270 examples – Superb St. Peter’s Cathedral, Rome, and Isle of Capri photos by “cubsfan61″, who had this to say about the Tamron AF 18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC LD Aspherical IF Macro Zoom Lens (Nikon mount) vs the Nikon 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S DX ED VR Nikkor Wide Angle Telephoto Zoom lens which he also took along with him on the trip:

    Switched back and forth from day to day between the Tamron and my Nikon 16-85VR. While the Nikon was a bit sharper, I have to admit it was nice having the amazing range of the Tamron. While the lens is by no means perfect, I think the results were pretty good.
