According to our camera lens expert
The Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 SP Di VC USD is the first lens from Tamrons' stable which has the ultrasonic focusing motor (USD). The technology works through high frequency ultrasonic vibrations that induce energy to make the metal rotor rotate. The result is a fast and most of all very quiet focus. This makes the lens especially suitable for sports and nature photography. The Vibration reduction (VC) simultaneously ensures the pictures are just as still. The lens elements aren't directly connected to the body of the lens, but are kept in place by three small metal balls. These balls reduce the vibrations of the lens to a smooth motion. Your pictures are significantly less likely to suffer from motion blur with shooting freehand and in difficult lighting conditions.
The interior of the Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6 SP Di VC USD consists of 17 elements in 12 groups. Under it there's a LD (Low Dispersion) and an XLD (Extra Low Dispersion) lens element, to enhance contrast and brightness. Moreover, the BBAR (Broad-Band Anti Reflection) multilayer coatings will reduce image shades and lens flares to a minimum. The included lens hood completes the picture by keeping bright sunlight out of the lens. With the USD for a motor, focussing will be smooth and fast. The automatic focus can be instantly switched to manual focus by simply rotating the focus ring. That means you can take over immediately when an important moment arises, but isn't prominently in the frame. With the internal focus, the focussing happens inside the lens, so that the lens remains the same size. Since the front ring doesn't change, your polarization filter stays fixed in the right position.

I've only been using M for 3 weeks now but the pictures are beautiful. Clean every time, the image stabilization works excellently even at 300mm You lose very little sharpness in the corners. I say a good asset to a wildlife photographer.

received the tamron immediately tested made a 250 recordings I already had the nikor 70-300 vr and was not satisfied with this, the tamron is much better also on 300mm the results are satisfactory and not soft like the nikor autofocus is also better. vibration reduction is very good you win at least 3 stops in good conditions 4 The autofocus works well, but not fast enough for fast sports photography, but it costs only 339 euros, which is certainly not much for this type of lens. I read somewhere on a site suitable for the professional photographer in my opinion suitable for the better amateur a professional I don't think will work with this
Overall happy with my purchase tested on D90 and D3100

a quality lens that delivers a nice result. Use this lens for basketball matches and wildlife photography and it will get the results you want in both cases.
