Last week I purchased the latest Tamron 18 - 400mm lens, and I find zooming in and out to be very tight, the salesperson said over time, it will become smoothe and less resistive/tight in zooming in/out. I have tried zooming in/out 20-30 times per day since then, but have seen no change, is there a solution to this situation?

Take it back to wherever you bought it and request a refund. Then either: 1) contact Tamron and tell them what happened and ask them for a suggestion or 2) look for a different lens. — Ralph
