An oldie but goodie

I saw an ad for the Tamron 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di zoom lens that supports full frame from B&H and couldn't resist getting it as it was the last NEW one they had in stock. I'm sure glad that I did.... it's a great walk around lens. I'm hoping that Tamron will reintroduce the lens with updated optics and silent drive. The resized photo on here doesn't do it any justice. It is sharp in the sweet spot like most lenses of this type, although a little soft at the far end, but then again, I'm not always shooting at 300mm... Oh yes... this is London Bridge in Lake Havasu City, Arizona.
