Resident Robin
by pentaxboyo
A sigh of relief as I hadn't seen him for a while.I've noticed a lot of people wondering whether the Tamron 70-300mm is any good.Well yes it is,as above photo taken at max 300mm and sharpened slightly.

good result. I too find the Tamron to be fine until you get into high contrast situations. I also find AWB bad on this lens, but in daylight conditions with Daylight WB the colours come alive. This pic shows was quality you can achieve from a budget lens. The sky hasn't been that blue where I live for 4 months
