The Shutterbug.com Tamron 16-300mm Lens Sweepstakes
Register to win a Tamron 16-300mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD Lens (MSRP $629.00) we are giving away.
According to the company:
Tamron's 16-300mm Di II VC PZD Macro sets a new standard for All-In-One zoom lenses with its world's first 18.8X range that's perfect for travel photography.Advanced optical and mechanical design technology achieve high image quality in this incredibly compact and lightweight zoom that covers 16mm to 300mm and provides macro focusing for superb close-ups. The VC image stabilization system delivers significantly sharper images for handheld tele and low-light shooting, while the PZD autofocus is fast and quiet.
The sophisticated lens design corrects optical aberrations, while state-of-the-art multi-layer coating significantly minimizes ghosting and flare to deliver images of exceptional clarity. And moisture-resistant construction helps prevent moisture from penetrating the lens in inclement weather.
Designed exclusively for your Canon, Nikon or Sony APS-C sized digital SLR camera. Just one lens. For every travel moment. (Please note that the winner will get to specify which type of camera they have so we can match it with the correct lens mount.)

Never owned a Tamron lens. Never purchased a Tamron lens. Never knew anyone that used a Tamron lens. Never read a review that made me want to buy a Tamron lens. Maybe this Tamron lens is different?
Hope I win the Tamron 16-300mm!
Fingers crossed
I need this lens!
Hi there! Would love to add a Tamron Lens to my collection. Taking pictures what a treat! Give me Tamron Lens Please Please I will not eat! If I win I promise to show, my ever expanding knowledge of Photography that shall grow!
Would love to replace 2 of my lenses with one and this would be a great one to do it with.
Would love to have this lens.
I would love to have this lens!
It would be nice to add this to my kit.
Looks like a dream lens to travel with!!! Awesome!
I want to win!
This lens was recommended by the founder of the Washington Photo Safari company!
Could use this fine lens
I never had a third party lens before, but when I check the spec of this Tamron, Wow, just wow. this will be THE PERFECT lens whenever I cover an event!
With a f3.5 I really want to check how this lens will do in portrait too.
If all has been written about this is true, then this is really and all around lens! I want to have this one will definitely recommend it to my photog friends!
I'd love to have this lens :)
This would be perfect for my daughter and her photography!
Oh, yes please :)
Would love a new lens, to learn with new DSLR.
Crossing my fingers ;-)
I have been thinking about a 'walk around' lens. This Tamron would be fantastic!
I've been wanting to try out a Tamron lens and I'm in need of a 300mm.Just once, could I win something?
This will be my first all around lens for my nikon for portrait, landscapes family events and macro in one... praying
Great range. Here's hoping!
To win this lens would be epic!
fingers crossed
I really need this lens but can't afford it...here's hoping!
Iniciando conocimientos en fotografia, deseando ganar este magnifico lente.
I'd love to show Shutterbug how good the lens is!
I have a Tamron Lens and have used them before. They are well made and Tamron stand behind their products. Wouldn't mind this all in one lens for trips where versatility is needed. Thanks!
Here is hoping for this lens. For Nikon D 5200
Thanks for offering this to folks
Prime time shooting ahead!
would be a fun addition! widest I have now is 24 & a zoom at 200.
thanks for the opportunity!
Would love to upgrade to this lens
good luck to all !
Oh yeah, i need this one, I could then leave several other lenses at home :-)
I'm a long distance backpacker, and I always get amazed looks when people see that I brought a bulky DSLR with me into the wilderness instead of a lightweight point and shoot. This lens would be amazing to take with me into the wilderness because it would serve many functions and I could leave my other lenses at home. As a full-time student, it's hard to save up money for new lenses. This one would prove to be invaluable to me. Thank you for offering this.
Just purchased an EOS 70D for my upcoming trip to Thailand, and very interested in learning about photography. Maybe with this nice lens, I will be able to share a photo that could be considered the "photo of the day"!
Since i'm looking for a nice wide angle lens for my new alpha77mk2 this would be ideal. Great give away.
Crossing my fingers
I have the previous model of this lens. Except for lens creep (which I understand they have corrected in the newer model) I have no complaints. It's a fantastic lens to travel with.
I would LOVE to have this 16-300 lens! It would be the only one I would ever use, I'm sure.
This looks like a pretty versatile lens.
Please baby pleaseeee
Wonderful opportunity, thanks.
Looks great.
Would be interesting to see the quality of image such a wide range lens produces.
Here goes nothing.
Looks like a very nice lens...hope to win it!
This would be a nice addition
When greatness becomes awesomeness
Tamron makes great lenses and I would love to add this to my lenses for my Sony A77. Thanks!
What a great focal range. Tamron is a quality lens maker, and I would love to own this lens.
Sounds like a versatile lens all in one glass! It does get tiring carrying multiple lenses on trips.
Looking forward to snapping photos with this lens... just in time for holiday vacations. Stop entering everyone... it's mine!
This would be one sweet lens
would be my first new lens! Still shooting with my original 18-55mm kit!
Would love to pair this with my Nikon D40 to replace the kit 18-55 that it came with
I want it. I want it bad. Please,,,,:-).
Thanks for offering us a chance to win!
This lens could for sure come in pretty handy
I own a Tamrom 18-200 mm lense for the past 8 years I have many other lenses but must of the time this is the one I use. Will be nice to have the 16-300 lense

Thanks for the great web site; and this giveaway.
Thanks for the opportunity!
Fingers crossed for the big winner!
Sitting at the table, cleaning my equipment WHEN the dog decided to chase the cat and the cat decided to escape by jumping on the table. He slide across the table and knocked over some filters & gulp my 70-210 mm Nikon lens.
I need a replacement ..... of my Nikon lens, i'm still keeping my cat. And yes the dog & cat get along with each other. They were just playing!
Sounds like the only lens you would need when traveling on vacation.
Sweet optics, bro.
I highly doubt his will do, but let's see
This beauty will look great attached to my leica
YES PLEASE!
Want it ;)
I need a decent lens for my camera, and this one would be fantastic!
I would love to have this lens
AWESOME!! I would love to win this! Thank you so much for the chance :)
I've been thinking about getting a lens to "shoot the moon" with so to speak. This would fit the bill very, very nicely. Would also be great for wildlife shoots. I'm pretty stoked!! I hope I win! :)
Skulle gjerne hatt den der, ja!!
This would be amazing!!
I'm a believer in the Tamron one-lens concept. 15-20 years ago I was shooting weddings with only a Tamron 28-105mm f2.8 lens on my Nikon 90s film camera. Nothing I'd like better than to upgrade to the 16-300mm Tamron on my digital Nikon(s).
can't believe all I have to do is leave a comment to win a new lens....what a great deal. Can't wait to receive it...thanks
I would LOVE to win this lens.
