Review Summary

Focus on the Tamron is really good above 250mm. not so much from 150-200. That being said I have taken the best shots of Alligators and Ospreys as it can get you real close fast. All in all the lens functions as Id hoped. It is a bit of a beast as far as weight though so be prepared.

Used it for quite a bit even when I cae acroff animals and birds. Focuses fast enough to get sharp photos and video during the day outdoors. WIth high ISO and stablization you can get it to work well indoors as well .

This lens seems to be well built and works flawlessly with my Canon T7i. Autofocus is quick and spot on, pictures are crisp. I use it primarily for nature shots, birds and other wildlife. I do use a tripod most of the time as the combination of camera and lens is a bit heavy. I have taken offhand shots with no blurring or other problems.

My new Tamron 150-600 mm G2 lens is tack sharp and so easy to use. It works so well in continuous mode. The wings on the humming birds that I photograph are so clear. I had a Sigma 150-500, but was never satisfied with the results. Tamron beats it by a mile!

The lens is everything I expected; solid, dependable, not too heavy, focuses pretty quickly. The only reason I gave a "4" is that it needs a brighter/sunnier day. The wider front lens helps but you still need a larger aperture and higher ISO to let the best light in. You also need a fast shutter speed, if you are not using a tripod, since the size of the lens tends to make it a bit hard to hold steady. On the whole it is a very good lens but best used on a tripod if the light isn't right.

Perfect lens for my wildlife pictures. Great addition to my Niko D850. The G2 model is fast focusing, crystal clear at a reasonable price.

It was very easy to use right out of the box with no experience. Hand held takes practice, but not too hard to get use to.

Fantastic lens with beautiful optics. Slight issue using it with my new mirrorless Canon R5, but I found work-arounds in the settings and it now functions seamlessly and I have been thrilled with my images.

The weather has not cooperated so I've only been able to use it once, but I'm impressed with the results. I used it to take close-ups of songbirds visiting my feeders and I'm very happy with the results. The photos were crisp, showing great detail on the feathers and the colors were true-to-life. It appears to be an excellent value for the price. This is a replacement lens for a Tamron 150-500 mm zoom lens I bought over a decade ago. That was a great lens but I've worn it out. I hope I get as many years of excellent service out of this new lens.

What a crisp lens, beautiful pictures and easy to use, I like how you can put it on a monopod for help with the heaviness but you could also do handheld if needed

I was hesitant at first to go with this lens but finally bit the bullet and ordered. It arrived a few days later. My first impression was that is was well made and light for it's size and focal length 150 - 600 mm. I took it out the next day to photograph some Burrowing Owls. These are very small owls about the size of a hand. They are a protected bird, so getting to close to them and their nesting area is not allowed by law. That's where to 600mm end of the focal length comes into play. I decided to go hand held to see how everything worked out. I was quite happy with the results. The images were crisp and clear. The focus was fast and accurate. I did raise my ISO higher than I normally shoot to enable me to use faster shutter speeds. There are not many affordable options (for me at least) in the 600mm range. I am very happy with the purchase. One note, I am using this with a DSLR and not mirrorless.

Nice bokeh, great improvement over G1. Lens is sturdier and reacts more quickly. Loved the G1, and going to REALLY love the G2. Paired with a Canon 5Ds

So far it's been a great lens. Has some interesting setting for short or long focal length - a handy feature. The upside is it really brings in the wildlife, but be prepared if you want to hike and take hand held images, it's heavy, but I've gotten used to it.

By OXFORD L.
After using the very sharp Canon 100-400 mark II, sometimes with a 1.4x extender, and getting good wildlife images, I wanted to shoot in lower light conditions at 600mm. Also, I was always having to swap the extender in and out. So, I gave this one a try. I am a pixel peeper and I have learned by microadjusting lenses that AF consistency improves, sometimes dramatically, when lenses are dialed in precisely. Also, that lens softness may be due to not micro-adjusting properly, So, I bought...

Lens quality great, VC and AF switches not so much
By TOM O.
I love the quality of my images with the G2 and all of the changes made from the first version but my big peeve is the VC and AF switches. They protrude above the lens body and I am constantly inadvertently knocking them out of position. This is a real pain. They are not protected like on Canon lens's. Trying to figure out how I might McGiver the lens to solve t he problem.
Take your photography to new heights with the all-new SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2 Lens for Nikon F, Model A022. This next-generation ultra-telephoto zoom lens from Tamron is a remarkable upgrade from its predecessor, the SP 150-600mm Model A011, introduced in December 2013. Designed to deliver exceptional optical performance, this lens is perfect for handheld shooting, offering stunning definition and clarity.
The SP 150-600mm G2 lens boasts an advanced optical construction with 21 elements in 13 groups, including three LD (Low Dispersion) lens elements that effectively eliminate axial and transverse chromatic aberrations. Enhanced with eBAND (Extended Bandwidth and Angular-Dependency) Coating and BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating, this lens ensures superior light transmission and minimizes internal reflections, reducing ghosting and flare even in challenging lighting conditions.
Versatility is a key feature of this lens, with a reduced Minimum Object Distance (MOD) of 2.2m (86.6 inches), allowing for impressive tele-macro photography and beautiful bokeh effects. The USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive) ring-type motor provides excellent responsiveness and control, significantly improving autofocus speed and accuracy, even when tracking moving subjects.
Stability is enhanced with Tamron's VC (Vibration Compensation) system, offering an impressive 4.5 stops of image stabilization. The lens features three VC modes: VC MODE 1 for balanced viewfinder and image stabilization, VC MODE 2 for panning, and VC MODE 3 for prioritizing captured image stabilization.
The FLEX ZOOM LOCK mechanism allows for quick and secure zoom locking at any position, preventing unwanted zoom extension during shooting or transportation. Additionally, the lens is equipped with a Fluorine Coating on the front element, making it water and oil-repellent, and a Moisture-Resistant Construction to protect against the elements.
Compatible with the TAMRON TAP-in Console, this lens allows for easy firmware updates and customization of autofocus and VC settings. It also supports two exclusive tele converters, offering 1.4x and 2.0x magnification, extending the maximum zoom range up to an impressive 1200mm.
This comprehensive bundle includes the ProOptic 95mm Filter Kit, a Cleaning Kit, Lens Cap Tether, Lens Cleaner, and a Software Kit, providing everything you need to enhance your photography experience.
