Tamron AF 24-135mm f/3.5-5.6 SP AD Aspherical (IF) Lens for Pentax SLR Cameras Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this lens for my Pentax K100D. The folks over at FredMiranda gave it consistantly good reviews, and the zoom range seemed perfect for a general walk-around lens. It is certainly a nicely-built lens and a comfortable weight. I found the auto-focus to be quick and generally accurate. The lens took great pictures in the 24-100 mm portion of the focal range, but I could not get good pictures out of it at the longer focal lengths for the life of me. I tried different apertures, manual focus, tripod, everything I could think of, but almost everything came out too soft for my taste. I am a hobbyist, not a pro, so maybe the problem was user error. Or maybe I got a bad copy of the lens. I am open to these possibilities, but I felt I should share my experience, regardless. If I'd only wanted 24-100, I'd have bought something different. I ended up sending this lens back, and I'm considering Pentax's 24-90, now, which is supposed to be quite good. Props to Amazon for the usual quick shipping and painless return policy.
