Tamron 18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 Di-II VC LD Asph. AF Macro Lens for Select Canon Digital SLR

Need your help please peeps - what's the cheapest you can find the above in the UK inc. delivery, if possible ;)

I know bugger all about such things :lol:

I'm doing this as a favour for someone but I'm not gonna get into the specifics of lenses etc with them, so don't you worry about it either - far as I'm concerned that's their problem ;)

Amazon are listing it at £409 (can't vouch for delivery as it looks like a third party store).

Clickty

Warehouse Express, which are usually the best price on the net and include delivery have it for £448.99.

That's a hell of a range. What are the reviews like? :?

Really? I have a 28-300mm, which isn't far off the same. I didn't think it was that unusual, to be honest.

I guess it depends on the aperture of the lens.

Perhaps it's out dated these days, but I thought the advice was to stick to zooms with a 3x factor - so a 18-55mm, or a 70-200mm for example.

Mmm-mm. Goes back to day-dreaming...

Don't look if you are scared by large numbers with pound signs in front...

It's about the same price as the telephoto lens that I've got my eye on.

Tidy, and even the postage to NI is free (bone of contention that most of the time), many thanks! :D

I still reckon it's best to come over here to buy camera stuff. And I also think you need to buy more camera stuff (8-p)
