Testing the Tamron 18-300mm for BIF : excellent !
14

A beautiful afternoon with a brilliant sun between clouds an a lot of  seagulls by the pond, oerfect conditions for testing

Let's have a look :

Despite a buzy background the focus is spot on

Two different backgronds but again a good focus

At f6.3 the bokeh is quite good

Multiple subjects and good focus.

Despite very fast action, the lens focuses extremely quickly in this brilliant contrasty light. I must say that I got muchh better results than what I expected from this zoom. The AF is definitly fast and accurate with a high % of keepers (tack sharp only) around 70%

Settings used XT3 AFC zone 7*7 Cfg 6 : 2/0/front
