Product Description
Tamron offers the world's smallest, most lightweight 28-200mm high-magnification zoom lens. With a minimum focal distance over the entire zoom area of 49cm, and a maximum magnification of 1: 4 (at 200mm), this remarkable lens achieves high-magnification zoom performance with the compact size of a standard zoom lens. Through XR (Extra Refractive Index) glass and efficient use of aspherical lenses, Tamron has achieved a 25% reduction in size and a 27% reduction in weight over the previous model (model 371D), along with a decrease in filter diameter by two-steps ?72mm- ?62mm without compromising the superior image quality characteristic of Tamron 28-200 lenses.

If you are looking for a decent walkaround that does 95% of the ranges, and hate lugging loads of lens with kids for zoo trips or travel, this will be perfect. Folds to a amazing skinny size that is even smaller than the Sony Kit lens! Big PLus- Pictures actually turned out better than the kit lenses after some workouts.
I did some research before buying this lens and read about the struggling at 200mm. I verify it does struggles, but not something as unbearable as some made it out to be. Maybe we are more impatient in this age, and cannot tolerate a delay of a split a second. If you can bear with your 70-300, this will not be an issue for you.
However, please note that although it says F3.8, your camera will show maximum of F4.0.. According to the Tamron Customer Service, this is inherent for Sony Cameras only; so don't be alarmed..
Sans the prime lenses and CZ, this's gotta be the best purchase I've made. And it is dirt cheap (<150)!! I'll highly recommend to novice and pros. Try it and you'll soon dump your kits like I did!!

This is a solid excellent quality lens that will work on both your conventional and digital cameras. The price was very good, so buy if you can get a good deal, and are not worried about having the latest model!
