Great review again Jake! I was able to take the lens for a 10 day trip to Iceland and echo your thoughts and findings. I used both the a6600 and the ZV-e10 with great results. It was so nice that not having to change lenses saved a lot of time cleaning sensors! I didn't know turning off the stabilization would get it out of the cropped mode. Thanks again. I see myself using the lens a lot next year in Alaska.

Great Review! I am a long time Sony user, I recently purchased the Sony A7RIV and the Tamron 18-300mm lens. I am extremely satisfied with the crop equivalent of 27-450 that this lens provides especially since the camera gives 26 mp with the crop. This combination of camera and lens provides a fantastic one lens travel camera kit that is relatively light. The full frame 61MP devotees (fanatics) really don’t understand the great flexibility and quality of this combo. Having owned the A7RII and since I have the A6000 and have used the RX10IV for along time, I find that the advanced features of the A7RIV and the overall sharpness of the 18-300mm really give you an opportunity to create great images and provide advantages over other camera & lens combinations during traveling.

Love the video. Had been waiting for a solid review of this lens. Have an a6400 and was wanting to upgrade my original stock 55-210mm zoom lens. Originally looking at the Sony 70-350 as I do definitely enjoy getting into nature photography and felt the severe limits of my old lens. While I do like that extra 50 mm zoom on the 350. The fact of not having to change lens on the 18-300 sounds like a dream especially with family and travel. I'm already used to shooting on stock lens with similar apertures, but besides the freedom, this sounds like significantly better quality than what I'm working with. Thanks again.
@ohAlanho2 жыл бұрын
Agreed, I also don't mind sacrificing 50mm on the tele end to have 18mm on the wide end. This lens is also a bit less expensive than the 70-350 so I'm thinking on replacing my 55-210 as well.

I find that the Tamron 18-300 is better for a general purpose lens than the Sony 70-350, I use my 70-350 only when I need the extra 50mm reach. Prior to the introduction of the Tamron, I used the Sony 18-200, which is quite capable, but I have to change lenses when the 200mm is indequate.

Excellent review. I recently bought the new Sony A6700 and paired it with Sony's 70-350mm lens. While Sony's lens is excellent, I returned it after trying the Tamron 18-300, which I prefer for its comparable image quality and ability to shoot from 18-300 mm. I'm pairing it with a Sigma 10-18 mm lens to cover the entire range I'm interested in.

First, thank you for a great review of the lens. I am not videographer, nor a Sony MILC shooter (I DO have the RX-10MkIV), and I recently branched out from my usual brands to Fujifilm, getting (but not yet delivered, thanks to logistics delays) the X-T4, along with their 18-80 lens. I decided to try Fuji or its control interface and their IBIS that is unique in an APS-C MILC at time of writing. I wanted an all-in-one unit to compliment that and the Tamron seems to have come to market at a perfect time. I don't shoot low light, and if I have to I have other units that can easily cope with that. I shot Tamron back in the early 80's when I used their SP Adaptall units with a mix of Canon A-1 and Nikon F-3 bodies, doing travel, scenic and wildlife photography, so I have a respect for their products.
