    I purchased this lens unaware that it was for a crop sensor nikon. BUT the autofocus motor was extremely silent i was very surprised and quick to focus. Image quality was good. But returned for a fullframe lens.

    I bought this because I got tired of changing lens all the time. Works well in well lit areas. Not so great in low light. Doesn't focus well with magnifier attachments. Focus is kind of slow as well at times.

    This Tamron zoom lens was an added asset to my photo equipment. It worked well with my Nikon D3300 and I use it frequently for close and far off pictures. A good lens; especially for the price.

    This is a decent lens for entry level photogs just wanting to get into the hobby. It’s usually a $200 lens and you definitely won’t want to pay more. It’s not a bad lens, but it’s also not that great either.

    Does not hold focus when zoomed out. Focus at your crop level and do not move the Zoom.

    I had wanted something more than the basic lens that came with my camera. This is replacing that lens. I have found this lens very useful in low-key nature photography around the local area.

    I have been looking for something better than the kit lens that came with the camera and I think this will fit the bill at a very good price. I have used very little but so far I like it a lot.

    I purchase this lens recently because it was on sale. I really need a lens for my Nikon 7100 because my 50mm was not doing the job. It a wonder lens to add to the collection! I only need this lens now and I take it everywhere! Get this lens and you will not be disappointed.

    I broke my everyday lens on the weekend and needed another for the next weekend. Looked at Best Buy online, found the Tamron 18-200 zoom, which was better than the old lens. Saw a good price, free 2-day shipping, ordered at received it when promised. Couldn't have been happier!

    Lenses I had were, in many cases, too close or too far. This hits the perfect in between ranges. great for basketball and volleyball shots from the stands.

    I did lots of research before buying this... Looked at lots of images and samples, watched reviews and thought I'd give it a shot and I was pretty disappointed. Tried it on both my D500 and D5200 and the image quality was sub par. Lost lots of detail in the shadows, seemed noisy. Compared it to the kit lens from the D5200 (18-55mm) and the kit lens killed it in quality. Returned it after a few days of testing.

    Not the sharpest lens, but you can't expect too much for that price. You need a flash for indoor or a sunny day for outdoor in order to take a semi decent photo. My recommendation, stick with Nikkor lenses.
