A lot of lens for little money

  • Very good value for money
  • Solid optical quality
  • Light and quite compact
  • Slow and loud autofocus

Everyone with a reflex camera, analog or digital, sooner or later comes to the conclusion that he or she needs a telephoto lens. The question then is: which one?

The Tamron 70-300 mm f/4.0-5.6 Di LD was my final choice. Tamron has had a reputation for making excellent telephoto zoom lenses for years, and I've had to say that this lens is no exception. Quickly ordered from Coolblue, delivered the next day and also received a free UV filter! The lens is well packed and comes with manual (almost unnecessary due to simple operation) and lens hood.

Those who make the switch from a kit lens will be pleasantly surprised by the fairly robust build quality of this lens, those who have already held a Canon L-lens or a Sigma EX, on the other hand, will be less impressed. The Tamron 70-300mm is completely made of hard plastic with the exception of the zoom ring and the focus ring, both of which are covered with a sturdy rubber-like material. This makes this lens light, but not very sturdy. So don't drop it!

Mechanically, this Tamron lens is quite well put together, but it is not top technology. Zooming and focusing changes the length of the lens (the maximum length is huge, which looks impressive but is very inconvenient), the filter rotates when focusing. Fortunately, there is no play between the different parts.

The autofocus, as you would expect from a lens in this price range, is not that great. Slow and loud, but before that consistent and quite accurate. Since the focus ring rotates during autofocus, it is important not to interfere with it, as this could damage the micromotor. Manual adjustment is not possible in auto mode, but it can be turned off via a well-placed switch.

The optical quality of the Tamron 70-300mm is very good. So good, in fact, that you immediately forget the lesser mechanical sides. The lens delivers excellent results, from 70mm to the full 300mm. Also a nice bonus is the macro function, which you can activate from 180mm via a switch. This macro mode allows you to focus very closely, giving you highly magnified images. Unfortunately, the lens is not sharp enough for true macro photography, which is understandable when you consider that a good macro lens quickly costs ten times the price. I don't use the macro function myself.

All in all, this lens delivers tremendous value for money. Tamron has clearly saved on the mechanics (autofocus and construction), but more than makes up for this with the excellent optical quality of this lens. With a maximum aperture of f/4 (f/5.6 at 300mm), it is of course not particularly bright, but those who own a tripod or have the weather can use the Tamron 70-300mm f/4.0-5.6 Di LD beautifully. making pictures.

Canon EF 75-300mm f/4.0-5.6 III

After fiddling around for a while to see how it works, I was able to take very good pictures with this lens.
You get everything very close and you can also take good portrait photos at a short distance. My wife was not really happy with it, the wrinkles were now very visible :-)

Very good value for money

  • cheap
  • price quality
  • macro function
  • doesn't focus so fast

Together with my Canon Eos 350D I use this lens as a hobby photographer. After taking this lens on holiday for a week, I must say that the quality is actually better than expected. The lens is reasonably light, more compact than the standard CANON 300mm zoom lenses and focuses accurately, but not so quickly.
What also turned out to be very nice is the macro function with which you can photograph a flower or insect "larger than life". When you photograph directly against the sun, you see that there is some inevitable stray light in the lens, but this is not so bad, and I'm afraid that if you want to reduce this you can quickly spend a factor of 3 more on a lens, and even then it will stand out when you shoot directly into the sun.
If you want a good telephoto lens, but don't want to spend too much money, I think this is a very good choice. You also get the macro function as a gift.
What I do recommend is that you buy this lens together with a UV filter (only costs +/- 14 euros). This protects the lens against scratches and ensures more beautiful colors.
