  • Underappreciated, inexpensive, and excellent

    This is a big, slow, massive manual focus tele-zoom lens right at the edge of needing a tripod mount. It is very well built, almost solid metal and glass, sturdy and weighs a ton. Operation is smooth, tight and sure. It's a bit more prone to purple fringing than modern lenses, but sharpness and CA appear to be very good. It's soft wide open and stopping down quickly sharpens it up like you'd expect from older spherical designs. Given the f/5.4 when fully zoomed out (f/11 with a teleconverter), it's probably only useful in bright sunlight or on a tripod. Beware that some individual Tamron lenses from this era suffer from doublet separation. I've had one 60-300 where the front doublet (just behind the outermost singlet) was coming apart. This is also common of the rear elements, ...

  • Reliable Relic

    Well built, solid image quality, affordable and at 1:1.5 darn near true macro capability. Yeah it's kind of heavy but quality usually is. Added bonus for me is the adapt-all 2 mount is for Pentax A so I got auto aperture. Also being an adapt-all lens a good one is worth buying regardless of mount as they are interchangeable. I highly recommend this lens.

  • One of the best manual focus zooms; superb on my Canon 7D

    I have an extensive collection of Tamron lenses and this is among my favorites. The lens is amazingly sharp and when stopped down to f8, I can only detect subtle differences compared with my new Canon L lenses. At 300mm, it approaches my superb Canon 100-400 L with the subtle differences mainly in contrast. I love the 5:1 zoom range and it is very sharp in macro mode. It is not as bright as my Tamron SP 70-210 F3.5 but may have an edge in resolution at 200 mm. I have several copies of the Tamron SP 60-300 and all are sharp. It is one of my go-to manual focus lenses. It is particularly useful as a versatile telephoto zoom when I must lock the lens in my car in a big city and am afraid to leave an expensive Canon L in the car for fear of theft. drj3253

  • Best bang for buck if you don't mind manual.

    Fantstic value for money, these old SP Tamrons. Additionally, some of the other non-SP lenses are nearly as good. That's not to say all Tamrons are great, they did make a few turkeys, too. However, the 60-300 is right up there with the best, and easily stands shoulder to shoulder with its stablemate, the SP 70-210 19AH, which is one of my best lenses in that range. I bought two slightly fungused 60-300s ten years ago but never got around to dismantling them to clean them out, and the more I looked, I realised it was probably a fool's errand, as stripping and rebuilding a complex modern zoom is likely to just end in frustration, so I've been using them the odd time and the fungus has almost no discernable effect on image quality. Results were very good, but I thought I'd find a clean one, ...

  • recommend for the price but for those only, who like manual lens

    It is very impressive sharp, full manual lens. I employ it as a portrait and macro (at 60mm) one. By shooting at good light or with a tripod this lens could be a competitor to Nikon Nikkor VR 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED‏. Definitely, recommend for the price but for those only, who like manual lens.
