5 out of 5 stars   Great zoom/macro lens.

Review submitted for Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DI LD Macro f/ Nikon AF w/ Built-in Motor & 6-Year USA Warranty (TM70300DINA2)
Pros: Easily Interchangeable, Fast / accurate auto-focus
Cons: Bulky, Heavy
Other Comments: Bought this just days before leaving for the Grand Tetons & Jackson Hole. It arrived on schedule and in very protective packaging. Tried it out right away around the house and seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. It is replacing it's grandfather relative lens (same make & such) of 20 years which also captured amazing landscapes and wildlife. This lens didn't let me down. Still heavy, but worth the weight. Postcard perfect shots every time including moving water, distant lanscapes, and even low lighting. GREAT LENS!

4 out of 5 stars   Look like a pro...or paparazzi
By Liz the wannabe photo expert on October 27, 2011
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DI LD Macro f/ Nikon AF w/ Built-in Motor & 6-Year USA Warranty (TM70300DINA2)
Pros: Easily Interchangeable, Amazing pictures, Strong Construction, Durable, Consistent Output
Cons: Slow Focus, Poor in Low Light, Heavy, Big
Other Comments: This lens is amazing for photographers that like to look like they know what they're doing (like my husband and myself). My husband uses this lens like he's paparazzi and will take pictures of me from across the street. It takes amazing photos, but you need to make sure you adjust the focus properly, or else it can get blurry. The one drawback is that it's not easy to throw my camera in a bag for impromptu photos because the lens is pretty massive. Though it is worth it for those planned pro-looking images.

By RonJ on July 17, 2011
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DI LD Macro f/ Nikon AF w/ Built-in Motor & 6-Year USA Warranty (TM70300DINA2)
Pros: Easily Interchangeable, Lightweight, Consistent Output, Fast / accurate auto-focus
Cons:
Other Comments: Received both the lens and a used Nikon D90 a couple of days before traveling to view the STS135 launch in Florida. Set both lens and camera to autofocus and got a couple of great shots. Can't wait to learn to use the system. The lens was easy to handle with the D90 body.

4 out of 5 stars   Great product, GREAT price.
By camera junkie on May 25, 2011
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DI LD Macro f/ Nikon AF w/ Built-in Motor & 6-Year USA Warranty (TM70300DINA2)
Pros: Strong Construction, Rugged, Consistent Output, Durable
Cons: Tough To Attach
Other Comments: I would like to see a dot or similar spot on the lens to attach it to my camera. That is the only problem I had with it. I had to rotate the lens until it "clicked" with my camera and sometimes this took too long. Otherwise, it was a GREAT addition to my Nikon and I got some great shots that I would have missed without it.

2 out of 5 stars   Would not Recommend
By Thomas on May 09, 2011
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DI LD Macro f/ Nikon AF w/ Built-in Motor & 6-Year USA Warranty (TM70300DINA2)
Pros: Easily Interchangeable, Lightweight
Cons: Blurry Focus, Slow Focus
Other Comments: Does not seem to focus well on far away objects and was unable to get it to take a good focused upclose (macro) shot. Seems to work good if subject not very far away where a close-up from a short distance is needed. I got it mostly for long range type shots but that doesn't seem to be what this is for. When in auto on my camera the picture seems overexposed (too much light) and I am not good enough at manual shutter speeds and f stops to use it otherwise. I should have done more research before purchasing this product. I will find a use for this at some point I am sure.
