Tamron Autofocus 75-300mm f/4-5.6 LD with Hood for Pentax SLR Cameras by Countrykid
Lens works great, zoom is fantastic.

Good for the price…but…. by Dorothy E. Brunell
This lens is “ok”. For the price that it is you kind of get what you pay for from it. Noticed some shake and lighting was off on some inside shots I took at my daughters cheerleading competition that I bought this for. I have shot on a tripod and off of the tripod…both the same outcome.

Used exact same thing before… and will again! by J. Baker
This Objective is the best in this price range I have used. It works just great, light intensity is good enough, and I found it to be able to accomodate the strangest requests especially at the Cliffs of Mohare in Ireland, Malta and here in my homecountry, the U.S. Even with diffuse light situations, the Tamron still gives you some power to accomplish what you want.

I would personally recommend Tamron Objectives to everybody on a budget. If you need better light intensity you will have to go with a lower spread, which will, depending on the lens you buy, drive the price right up. Tamron is a great Customer Service experience as well.

I just recently bought a Pentax DSLR and this one will be equipped with a Tamron soon.

Tamron Autofocus 75-300mm f/4-5.6 LD with Hood for Pentax SLR Cameras by Maury Weiner
This lens works smoothly with my manual focus Pentax K1000. I just need to keep off the A (automatic) focus stop.

I noticed a slight amount of distortion at the edges of one picture taken at the 300 mm position, but, generally, everything looks fine.

I bought the lens for a trip to Alaska and I was very satisfied with the operation of the lens.
