wondering about this Tamron 16-300

ok
yes it does
seems as if it should be pretty versatile -- is quality ok?

yes the quality is fine
and it has image stabilization as well
helps against camera shake

Jackie L.
ok
$$
Jackie L.
ok
are advances since 7D so significant that there are affordable cameras i should think about getting instead of keeping it?

Other than full frames, but it is really about the lenses and your skillset
Invest in good lenses
