Why 18-400mm? I can't imagine having a use for that. Not saying that there isn't a use for it. Maybe it is a failure of my imagination.
What do you think Chris? Where are you, what are you photographing, what are you trying to achieve, would you imagine, when you tell yourself "wow, I sure am glad I have this lens!"

Mike, I went to Africa in June with my 70D and only this lens. I know I took a chance with just one lens but I didn't want to lug others or even change lenses in the middle of a safari.
I tweaked the focusing at each of the lengths using the Tamron Tap-In Console which worked very well. I was very happy to have the 18-400 length whether I was in Cape Town shooting panoramic of Table Mountain or getting up close to animals in the bush. Look up the last few posts by me to see some of the pictures I took with the lens. I was very happy with it's performance. One note, I am not a professional photography so I take pictures just to make me happy.
