- The introduction of a Piezo Drive (PZD) motor means the AF system should perform much faster and more silently than the previous Tamron 18-270mm model. This isn’t the only improvement to the lens, though, as it is now 24% smaller than the old model, therefore taking up even less space in your travel bag.

Dec 3, 2012 · The Tamron 18-270mm F3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD performs reasonably well for a superzoom, although it's highly variable across the zoom range.
