According to our camera lens expert
The Tamron 18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD is a complete and versatile lens. It provides an extensive zoom range and the ability to take macro shots. With this lens, you won't have to change lenses often. The image stabilization compensates for small vibrations, reducing the amount of blurring in your photographs. The focusing motor is fast and silent so that you won't record annoying noises during your recordings. On top of that, you can clearly capture moving subjects, such as athletes or animals.

Professional photographers say that shooting with an SLR is synonymous with changing lenses. Photography is still a hobby for me. I take my camera with me almost everywhere and carrying different lenses can be frustrating at times. You are dragging around with a whole bag, camera and lenses, everywhere, including on walks, trips and the like. Plus the fact that at times you miss successful photos because you have the wrong lens on the camera.
This Tamron lens was advised against me by colleagues because according to them Tamron was inferior. I had two Nikon lenses and a Tamron lens and gathered enough information beforehand. I pushed my way through and bought the lens and I have not regretted it for a moment. It is a super lens for the hobby photographer who likes to take good pictures, it is a real all-rounder. You get good photos at both 18mm and 270mm. I always use the lock on the lens, I have not yet tried whether the lens slides open if the lock is not set. It takes some getting used to to put the button of the lock back when you want to take a picture, but you quickly get used to it and then it becomes routine. In short, this lens is highly recommended.
Coolblue's service is perfect, order, pay and the product is delivered to the door the next day, well packed, no comment about that.

This lens has been on my Nikon D5200 for about 3 months now. The advantage of this lens is that you don't have to change it, so it's easy for travel. What some have that the lens sags on its own, that doesn't bother me...What I also noticed is that there is not much difference between the 200 and 270 mm... For holiday shots it is indeed a nice lens, but if you If you compare it with a simple 18-105 kit lens from Nikon, this Tamron falls short on sharpness and details!!! Too bad... Focusing is also a bit slower and when you focus you sometimes see the image jump... Not really irritating, but strange. I had already sold my 18-105 and my 55-300, but I have since bought back an 18-105 from Nikon out of dissatisfaction. Soon to the circuit with the Tamron...I'm actually holding my breath a bit and I think the 55-300 will come back too...Get rid of the Tamron? No, that's not the case either... Actually a lens for when it's difficult to change on the spot or if you don't want to take much with you, but ......... a B choice. If I'd known I wouldn't have bought it.

Long thought about a lens for our digital SLR camera D5100 and finally opted for the all-rounder. Why?
Weight and Size It is quite a large and heavy lens, but that makes sense if you choose a lens of 18-270MM. The disadvantage of the weight can be that the lens slides down slightly when you take a photo with the lens down. That only happens when you zoom slightly with the lens. If you have taken a photo with a little zoom, you should always check whether it is still in the right place after the photo. An advantage of the weight I personally find the stability when you photograph. It fits comfortably in the hand.
18-270MM With the lens you can actually photograph very well in almost all situations. Of course, this has to do with the large range, so changing the lens is not really necessary with this Tamron. The lens takes very nice pictures in almost all situations. You can take beautiful pictures with it when it comes to:
This makes it an excellent lens for the photographer who does not want to change lenses and who still wants to take beautiful and sharp photos in almost all daily situations. If you really want to take a top photo per situation, it may be more convenient to work with different lenses.
VC and AF On the lens is a button for stabilization (VC) that ensures that your own movements are compensated. You can also turn this off and that is necessary if you are shooting from a tripod because otherwise the lens will compensate somewhat despite there being no movement. You can also focus the lens manually or automatically. That automatic focusing is fast and smooth.
Guarantee The forms supplied indicate that you can extend the warranty to 5 years. For that you have to register the camera via the internet.
sun cap You can secure the lens hood in front of the lens when you store the lens. This is handy and ensures that you always have it at hand. However, it is difficult for us to fasten this cap quickly.
lock The lens has a button to fix the lens in the non-zoomed position (18MM). This prevents the lens from sinking down due to its weight while walking, for example.
Summarized: A great lens for anyone who wants to take beautiful photos in a variety of situations and who prefers not to switch lenses.
