Sensational Moments
“Enormous zoom, light weight - this is how the 16-300mm f/3.5-6.3
Di II VC PZD Macro won us over. As travel bloggers from 22places.de,
we're always on the road and we like to travel as light as possible.
Tamron’s travel zoom means we don't have to compromise any more.
The 16-300mm has a huge range of focal lengths (focal lengths
24.8mm to 450mm equivalent to full-format). That means you can
capture great landscape photos and also very personal snapshots
of street scenes. We can even take macro photos without having to
change the lens rst.
We captured so many sensational moments with the Tamron
16-300mm on our six-month Asia trip - from the Festival of Lights in
Chiang Mai to the Chocolate Hills in the Philippines. We could take
photos with slower shutter speeds thanks to the VC image stabiliser,
and it reliably helped us avoid shaking when we were lming out of
buses or trains. The images are sharp and very detailed. They show all
these moments exactly as we experienced them at the time.”
