Can Tamron 16-300mm lens fit on a Canon 700D?

Question

I want to buy a new lens that extends my zoom range, because the one came with the camera is 18-55mm with a small zoom range. The specifications for the Tamron lens look good, with a great zoom range, and also can be used as macro lens, for portraits and travel - I will not have to carry more than one lens & switch lenses. It's within my budget too.

So can anybody help me to know if it can fit my camera? Is it good enough or I can find something with same specifications & same price range in another brand that's better?

No limitation, providing the correct mount is chosen. Here is amazon link for Canon mount http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00JM15OCW

-1 for claiming that the 75-300 is an upgrade. – Philip Kendall Mar 30 '15 at 10:44
@PhilipKendall corrected, I think I was looking on older version of 70-300 but mentioned 75-300. Sorry my bad – peter_budo Mar 30 '15 at 10:46
I want to give you -1 for even mentioning the 75-300! – Michael C Mar 31 '15 at 02:23
@MichaelClark there is no concept for happiness for all, sorry. Maybe you can provide suggestions for given the price tag and requirements – peter_budo Mar 31 '15 at 09:43
The 75-300 is a really bad lens. For a crop body such as the 700D the latest versions of the 55-250 are much better lenses and values. But there is no specific price range given in the question. – Michael C Mar 31 '15 at 23:55
