Hello Hoggers,
I recently purchased a Tamron 18-400mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC HLD All-In-One lens. It's coupled to a Nikon D 5300. I would like some input from owners/users of this lens, such as Tips & Tricks, sweet spots for various zoom ranges, or general usage comments.
BTW, I found it on eBay, in Mint condition with box & documents for half of retail @ BPH or Adorama, so I couldn't pass it up.
Like what others said, a little stiff when zooming. If I may add, a little bit heavy. No big deal unless you have some physical issues such as arthritic hands. Once you get used to it, you don't mind. Other than the above minor negatives, great picture quality and an all-around lens.
