I refer often to what I believe could be the perfect travel lens or as some people think of it, the perfect �all in one� lens, the
Tamron 18-270mm Di-II VC PZD lens. A couple of months ago Tamron lowered the price on the lens making it a great alternative to carrying 2 lenses by covering that wide range in one compact, lightweight lens. They recently started offering a $70 rebate through the end of the year. Well for
Black Friday and Cyber Monday they are offering an additional $30 rebate on the lens! That is a total of $100 in rebates through Monday! That would bring the lens down to only $349!!!
Think about all the features of the lens for that price. It is a 15 times zoom in an APS-C designed lens with Vibration Reduction that will help you get an up to 4 additional stops, Piezo Drive Motor making it faster, quieter and lighter than the previous versions of the lens, internal focus, includes a lens hood and 6 year warranty. If you missed it, if you ever have to send in a lens to Tamron for service, they now have 3 day turnaround on service.
If you are looking for a great quality, super sharp compact lens that covers from 18mm-up to 419mm, the
Tamron 18-270mm Di-II VC PZD lens is the perfect choice. Give
Joel at Camera Land a call before Monday closing and get your lens ordered. As always make sure you let him know you are a member of the Campfire forum.
