My New Tammy 18-250

My New Tammy 18-250 · 01:06 PM

Here are my first shots with it, It just arrived today so I walked around the yard and took a few shots to see If the lens is ok or not. What do you guys think about the quality of the lens do I need to send it back for another or is this one ok? This are all at 200 iso and set on full auto. Do you need shots of things like Newspaper or the sky?

I made the same shot as yours 4th with my Pentax 18-250 and it came out much worse.. I guess I need to upgrade the photographer, lol.

I don't see any glaring problems with your lens. How does it feel to you? Do you see any problems? Have fun with it! I would like to own that lens someday myself.

I just love not having to change the lens to get a long distance shot. But it is a little heavy and will take a little time to get used to. Its built real good just like my 70-300 Tammy,, but it is shorter which is nice.

Lens and operator appear ok from these shots. I have the same lens - at 200+ it becomes a little difficult to hold stead but for such a wide range small price to pay.
