As a concert photographer, this lens does everything I need it to do in the pit ans takes away the hassle of switching lenses. Takes a great range of close-up portraits to wide shots. Just wish the range began at 18mmm.

This has been an extremely versatile all-in-one lens for me as a humble beginner. The 28-200 range is very nice as you don't feel like your missing shots that you might want some extra reach. Using it with the crop sensor also helps extend and pictures remain sharp. Widening up to 28mm you get that 2.8 but as you zoom you're quickly at f3 and 4 which is fine because images remain sharp. It's a little over a pound feels solid in construction and it's proven to be a reliable lens. I'm really impressed with this Tamron lens and the only thing I yearn for is some really good built-in image stabilization. At the price though A+

I was looking for a versatile zoom for my full-frame Sony A7c and didn't want to carry a heavy lens which would balance poorly with the small Sony body (with small handgrip). This lens is priced right and has very good image quality. I wish it was 24mm on the wide end but I'm willing to trade that off for the size and weight savings.

Photos are SHARP and the focal range of 28-200 is amazing for versatile use! Perfect for one lens travel!
Quality seems superb and Autofocus is snappy.
Never encountered any issues so far! Happy with the purchase and definitely a great value compared to the expensive Sony lenses.

Love this lens! Sharp pictures, great bokeh, and the range 28-200mm allows me to carry one lens for the majority of my photo shoots (I am a photography enthusiast not a pro).

I wasn’t sure about this lens, but after watching some reviews I decided to purchase it. I don’t regret it. The lens is excellent. The only downside is the zoom ring is a little tough to turn, but other than that it’s quite a capable lens and at a great price.

This lens is by no means perfect, but for what it is, it is a good choice. Price point and overall ability is strong with this lens.
The F 2.8 goes away quick but overall sharpness is well above good enough for an enthusiasts photographer. If you are a pro, get something better but you already knew that.
Once I am done resizing the demo photos I will get them up. I like the overall clarity and sharpness throughout all rangers. It travels well and the lock is extremely useful for me.
If I had the funds, I would have gotten either the 24-70 GM or the similar Sigma.
