Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di USD G2
Optical design
Has 9 aperture blades, with this amount of aperture blades you will be satisfied with the result. The ring-type motor employs a piezoelectric ceramic element to generate two high-frequency ultrasonic vibrations on the motor’s stator ring for fast, near noiseless autofocus. Not the best in low light conditions but the lack of high aperture can be compensated with higher isoPhysical characteristics
Weights 1955 grams so it is a heavy lens, consider using its own lens bag. 259 mm long, with this size carry only if you use it. With a lens filter diameter of 95 mm finding lens filters in this range can be expensive consider using Cokin P system if you really need one.Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di USD G2 purchase historyStable

Great Piece of Glass! It doesn't get much better. The G2 is a fantastic piece of glass. I have, so far, shot a stage show and wildlife with nary a problem. For the price I'm going to give this two thumbs up. Image also 2 thumbs up. I was expecting some fall off at the edges at 600 mm but my eye can't detect it and nothing shows in the blow ups so if its there it is so minor I'm not going to worry about it. I shoot with a Canon 5D M4, Canon 70D and use 10-22mm, 18-135mm, 28-135mm, 70-200 f2.8, and now the 150-600. If you are interested in this piece of glass my recommendation is get it - you won't be sorry.
Tamron 150-600 G2 Extremely sharp compared to first gen lens. Barrel lock at any focal length is a great feature. Need to lock it at 475mm? Go for it! Three VC modes with excellent stabilization. Well designed, solid construction with six year warranty. Tap console included at no extra charge made this an even more attractive offer.
Great Purchase this lens has lived up to the many reviews I have read. while we all want the 500 and 600 from canon, they are very big and expensive. I have used the zoom feature of this lens although normally I am all the way out at 600. its a great value. I have used a duffle bag lined with towels while connected to a 7D for storage and transport. I also got the lens wrap as its out in the car a lot for protection. The zoom feels snug and I will likely call Tamron and check with them after an upcoming bird vacation.
