The Tamron AF 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 of II VC can be defined as a Superzoom lens for APS-C cameras in production since 2015. Built with high quality plastic materials, it is first characterized by a very reduced weight that is around 400 grams. On the lens there are only two controls and precisely the ignition of the VC system and that relating to the AF/MF switch. The lens has the internal focus so it does not stretch but the external ring rotates so it must be left free to move once mounted on the machine body. Specifically, the lens is made up of 16 lenses divided into 14 groups including a ld element. As for performance, even if at the different focal lengths the images are clear, the best results are obtained when the lens is set on the more short focal lengths and the subject is located in the center of the image: in these conditions the sharpness of the images It is truly surprising and also combines an exceptional chromatic quality, with the different colors that are very bright and with a tone of shade very close to the real one. The final judgment on this lens is absolutely positive. In fact, it represents the right compromise among those who are looking for a product to be used on every occasion, which is characterized by a high quality of the performance and for a decidedly low price.
