 Great low-cost lens October 30, 2005

With lenses, the rule of thumb is, more often than not, "you get what you pay for" - having said that, this lens is an exception. This is a great price for a lens in this focal range. While I'm sure there are better quality lenses out there (if you want to spend a lot more money), for an under $200 lens, this one's great! Construction is solid and the lens feels sturdy and not at all cheap. Auto focus is reasonably fast and manual focusing feels quite comfortable. The level of sharpness and overall image quality from this lens has been just fantastic. I have no complaints at all and am very happy with this lens. I'd reccommend it to anyone looking for an inexpensive lens in this range.

I use this lense a lot for capturing wild life and the first time I used it I couldn't believe what I was seeing. The autofocus mode is quick for those split second opportunity shots. It also does well as a macro lense so it serves a dual purpose. Did I also mention that I am just an amateur photographer? This lense is really easy to use too!
 Easily worth the price. July 30, 2006

The auto focus is faster then I expected based on other reviews. The lens is pretty darn slow. Don't expect any decent shutter speeds for anything but very bright conditions.
Easily worth the $120 I paid.
Tamron AF 75-300mm for Canon Rebel XTi DSLR November 19, 2007

We bought this lens for my wife's Canon Rebel XTi DSLR. The 35mm film equivalent of this 75-300mm lens is 112-450mm.
This lens is outstanding in every way. It has great build quality and a nice ergonomic feel. The focusing is pretty fast and it is able to autofocus accurately even at low light situations. It produces sharp pictures at all focal lengths with excellent detail and color balance. The lens hood is an added bonus.
At this low price for a lens I looked for flaws, but could not find any. I have to agree with the other reviewers that the axiom "you get what you pay for" does NOT apply to this lens.
no macro January 4, 2007

Its a real nice lens for the price you pay, dont forget no macro available for this lens. Tamron is better than Canon for 75-300 deal I bought Canon 70-300 without IS, every photo I ve taken was blurred, I thought all that kind of cheap lenses give the same result, I returned it and got this one, this one is a lot nicer than canon, but nothing can beat Canon 70-200 L Series save some money and buy it, that kind of cheap lenses sooner or later goes to trash or garage sale.
