I'm just an avid amateur photographer, and for the most part I am really happy with my Pentax 55-300mm and my Sigma 18-50 f/2.8 for when I'm really focusing on photography. However, there are definitely times where I just want happy snaps, and I find myself longing for my old Panasonic Lumix FZ50 "bridge" superzoom camera. The Tamron 18-200mm basically turns my Pentax KX into a better FZ50. It's perfect for use as a walk-about/site seeing lens. I am pleasantly surprised at the overall good images I can get from this lens. I haven't had any focusing issues at all -- the kit lenses hunt more than this lens.
If you just want to walk around with a single lens, this a great solution that won't lighten your wallet too much. | |
