About the Tamron 16-300mm Di II VC PZD Lens (Canon EF)
The Tamron 16-300mm Di II VC PZD is an all-in-one superzoom for Canon APS-C DSLRs. It covers everything from wide-angle 16mm to super-telephoto 300mm, making it ideal for travel, family and wildlife when you want to carry just one lens. Vibration Compensation (VC) reduces shake for sharper handheld shots, while the Piezo Drive (PZD) autofocus motor is fast, quiet and smooth. The lens is compact for its range and includes a zoom lock to prevent lens creep. Please note: this is a Di II lens, designed for APS-C sensors only – it is not intended for full-frame Canon cameras.
