Andy Westlake takes a detailed look at a budget all-in-one superzoom for APS-C DSLRs
While there's certainly an element of truth to this, it overlooks one fundamental advantage – that you can cover a huge range of subjects without having to change lenses between shots. If you're out on your own, taking your time, this is no big deal.
If there's one kind of lens that tends to get a bad press, it's the all-in-one ‘superzoom'. Conventional wisdom states that zooms with a 3x range can be optically excellent, and 4x can still be very good, but extend that to 10x or more and the compromises become too great.
I am using this lens since last 3-4 days. Nothing I can say about this lens except 'wow'. Not able test the lens completely as I am using it for only 3-4 days. What I have observed is the lens works nicely in daylight while taking portrait or landscape photo.
I had the Canon 72 mm 19-200 and it has completely locked up on me. I replaced it with this lens. My biggest concern was losing some of the size and a possible drop off in image stabilization. I can't say I notice any real fall off anywhere.
Love this lens. Took it on a safari and my pictures turned out great! So pleased with this! For quality and price - 5 stars!
as a beginner i too was very confused on which lens to get as my first one. then i decided to get this one and i dont regret doing so. its a very good first lens for amatures like me. maybe when you get good at photography you can jump to better quality ones with a higher price tag.
