Tamrons ‘SP’ range is the equivalent to Sigma’s ‘EX’ range of professional grade optics, this lens is the same lens as the Konica-Minolta 11-18mm except for the exterior cosmetics. It’s very sharp and its also quite light making it perfect for travel/hiking. If you’ve never used a very wide angle before, its a whole new world of fun, before I got the Nikkor equivalent this was used for about 90% of all the photos on my site for the time I had it. It’s in perfect condition, in its original box with all the packaging and lens hood, I lost the lens cap but have a replacement fitted.
