they make amazing glass. ultra long zoom with close focus capabilities. if it turns in a decent performance, it may just well be an excelltn all in one travel lens, notwithstanding the slow 6.3 long end aperture

Noticed at the Lens Marketplace, there are 3 entries for selling Tamron 28-300mm lens.
Is this a sign for the arrival of the Tamron 18-250mm?

Ultimate "universal" lens for outdoors (under bright daylight)
