    I bought this lens to take on my vacation to Alaska. Last time I went I hated swapping out lenses and wanted to travel a little easier. This lens is great so far. It's a bit heavier so It takes some getting used to, but I am happy with the photos I have gotten at this point. I put this lens on a Canon 4Ti and am using it in place of my 55mm and 300mm Canon lenses.

    I am at best an amateur photographer. I like to hike int he backcountry and always have my camera with me. I use a Canon T6S and have been frustrated a little by always having to change lenses to get that just right shot. Extra weight in the pack as well. The Tamron 18-400 is the perfect lens. It has an incredibly broad focal range. It was a little larger than I thought. It is very well made, I would high recommend this lens for the hiking enthusiast

    Love this lens! Since the weather is so cold, I really haven't given it a long test, but so far so good! I'm still getting use to it. Can't wait for this MN weather to warm up and give it a real test!

    This is a very versatile camera lens with huge range. In theory, this one lens can do it all, but sometimes it has a hard time focusing and pictures come out very blurry. Overall, not what I expected.

    This in all around lens for any situation. I was tired of carrying several lenses when traveling and this lens does it all. I have a CanonT1i and the pictures come out really clear and sharp. Overall, a great purchase... a little pricy but worth it!

    This is my first Tamaron and it's a great lens. With this one lens I can take a Portrait or telephoto shot without having to switch out lenses. It's a bit heavier than I expected. This will be the only lens I carry on my Yellowstone trip this fall.

    Will admit I am not a knowledgeable photographer. Have limited budget but really wanted a single lens to use in a variety of situations. Have a lot to learn but really have enjoyed learning with this lens on recently purchased Canon 77D (another budget compromise but no regrets).

    The lens does everything I need it to achieve. It's a great all in one and awesome for starters learning. it works on the M50 Canon as long as you have an adapter. It is a robust and heavy lens comparing to the kit lenses but very versatile.
