The Tamron 150-500mm is an impressive super-telephoto mirrorless zoom for its price tag of $1,399. If you are interested in this focal range, and can live with its slower aperture, it is an excellent choice!

- functions, Impressive overall value
Cons:
- Missing tripod collar click stops, Missing customizable Fn button(s), Aperture rather slow/dark, especially at 400-500mm

Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VXD Lens for Sony E - BRAND NEW review
I like this lens, and am pleased with the images that it has made possible. It handles well, and the results are sharp, with some absolutely gorgeous bokeh, despite only having 7 diaphragm blades.

Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 Di III VC VXD Review
The Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 Di III VC VXD lens has the zoom power you'll want for sports and wildlife imaging, as well as a sturdy build to handle location work. The Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 Di III VC VXD ($1,199 to $1,499) super-telephoto zoom for the Fuji, Nikon, and Sony systems undercuts many first-party options on price while still delivering competitive picture quality. The surprisingly compact optic also focuses quickly, features full weather protection, and can capture decent macros. The competition varies depending on the platform you use, but this Tamron manages to present excellent value to sports and wildlife photographers on any of them. Pros and specialists might still prefer the longer reach of our Editors' Choice winners, the Sigma 150-600mm DN OS Sports ($1,499) and the Fuji XF 150-600mm ($1999.95), but the 150-500mm confidently slots into all of these system lineups as a more versatile, often more affordable alternative to the standard 100-400mm zoom.Available for Fuji, Nikon, and Sony Tamron initially marketed the 150-500mm for Sony cameras exclusively but has since added Fujifilm X and Nikon Z editions to its catalog.

Tamron has added an interesting choice for Sony Alpha mirrorless owners looking for a super-telephoto zoom: Their new 150-500mm f5-6.7 Di III VC is almost as compact as Sony's FE 100-400mm f4.5-5.6 GM OSS but offers 25% more reach and is much cheaper to boot.
