Is this a good lens for Canon T4i
900124
I have a T3i, and I agree with the other comments. I get excellent shots of the moon (using a Manual setting, but Auto focus), with wonderful detail. I would imagine it would perform the same on your newer T4i. I've also taken great shots of airplanes passing overhead. Once I took some close up shots of people's faces, with amazing detail; however, you can't be close to the subject, with a minimum of 70mm. It might be good for taking spy pictures!

I think it would be a good option for a 70-300 lens, for my nikon works great.
900126
Yes. This lens is excellent value and pairs beautifully with my T1i. With the 1.6 crop factor, you get an awesome telephoto reach with it and the quality is quite good.
900127
Yes, it is. I also have Canon 70-300 IS, but I like my Tamron better. It is sharper than Canon, and to me, it has better design and probably better build quality as well. It should work very well on T4i. May appear a little too big on the small T4i body, but that's non issue.

I'm not sure if it wold be a good lens for a Canon T4i. I have a Sony A65, if it's the same lens only for a Canon, then I'd think you'd see the same quality pictures. For my camera, it's fantastic, great zoom range, focus, etc. Hope this helps.

I use it with the t1i and it works great. Very fast and accurate focus. This lens is one of my best purchases.

I have used this lens with my T3i with fantastic results. I recently purchased the T4i have have have had the same results with both cameras. I am the team photographer for a girls U-19 soccer team and use this lens. It yields great results during day games and at night with stadium lighting. I highly recommend it.

I don't own a Canon. However, this lens has worked well with my Sony A100. Check out Bob Atkins review at this link. http://www.bobatkins.com/photography/reviews/tamron_70-300_vc_review.htmlHe has a good comparison between this lens and the Canon EF 70-300/4-5.6 IS USM. This will probably give you a good idea as to what you can expect out of the Tamron lens as opposed to the Canon lens.

I use this lens on my Canon 600D, which is the European T3i and it works great

Yeah, Diverhank nailed it - two very different lenses. Important to note that the 50mm 1.4 is NOT a macro lens and that was something you mentioned in your initial post. I used the 50mm on my T2i and absolutely loved it, though I eventually upgraded (and much preferred) the Sigma 30mm 1.4 for the "normal" focal length on the crop-sensor. I now shoot a full frame and primarily use the 50mm but will likely get the 100mm shortly. Be sure to take a look at the Sigma 30mm before buying the 50mm Canon but if Macro is what you're looking for, you can't go wrong with the 100mm L.

This lens works great with that camera. In fact I have used it with the T1i, the T3i, and now with the T5i. I love this lens and have used it on many vacations including Alaska where we got fantastic close ups of humpback whales feeding.

I really don't know the T4i well enough to answer. If it uses the same Canon lenses as all the rest of the EOS family then I would say it is safe to assume this lens cap will work. I used lenses from my old Ti on my 50D and the lens cover is based off the same bayonet lens attachment.

You can use it on your T2i but you will not get a great deal more field of view than your kit lens. The image quality will be better and if you are planning on going full frame it is a good investment. It is a terrific lens.

I've tested the lens on my T4i in a store and it will fit beautifully on the T3i, T4i, and T5i as I've used all three cameras with the same lenses. This will fit the T5i as well.

Hello there Matthew. It fits my T3i just fine so ill assume it will fit your T4i as well. For the price, its actually a decent lense. Good luck!

Yes. FYI if its made by Canon it will fit any canon body. Enjoy the lens but if its in your budget get the 35mm or less. Don't limit yourself to just Canon brand. My go to lens is made by Tamron and yes it will fit the T5i

First, I don't own a T4i. However, I have several other modern Canon SLRs and the cap fits them all. I would say that just as lenses are interchangeable among canon SLRs then so are the lens caps. Your T4i is not a full frame body, but that should not matter because full frame lenses will fit on your camera body.

Seth, I can only vouch for the T3i and T4i. It works fine on both of them. Manual focus only.

This is an excellent lens on a Canon T3i IMHO. I use this combination daily and love it. This lens rarely leaves my T3i. It will be equal to 160mm in focal length. I use this focal length for all sorts of things and being able to shoot macro is amazing! Auto focus speed is fast and accurate and if that is not enough has a limiter switch to help. The image quality and sharpness is about as good they make them. An excellent performer. If you can spare the cash don't hesitate. This is my favorite lens hands down.

I realize your question is now 3 yrs old, but I may still be able to help someone else. My favorite lens for my T2i is the Tamron 118-270mm. Talk about versatile. I have the Canon 50mm and a zoom along with the standard kit lens, but none compare to the Tamron...no more changing the lens so often.

Yes it will fit, I use this lens on my T4i. As Jesse said its not a very good lens, it was good practice for me to figure out how much I would use a lens like this though. Tamron makes a great 70-300 that is modern and sharp. Get the one with IS if you can.

Yes! I own a T5i and the lens works perfectly. Really good lens, you'll love it.

I was looking at a T4i a couple of days ago, to upgrade my cameras and it appeared to me it will work. You do have to remove the existing eyepiece frame first, but it simply slips off with no problem. I found the eyepiece is a must have as it blocks out side light and movement that distracts while shooting. Enjoy!

the answer is yes to both questions. It's a matter of what you were trying to shoot. It's a good lens for the 70 to 200 millimeter focal length.

I have a Canon T2i and two Tamron lenses. The 17-50 is my primary lens for landscapes, cityscapes and indoor general purpose use. Yes the lens works great! Huge improvement over the Canon kit lens! Here are some images I took: http://www.flickr.com/photos/baitmouth/ The most recent were taken with the 17-50.
