Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 DI III Overview
The dynamic Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VXD for full-frame-format Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras is a compact and versatile super-telephoto zoom lens well suited to capture a wide array of subjects ranging from landscapes and birds to sports and wildlife photography. The optical construction features 25 elements in 16 groups and utilizes special lens elements and hybrid aspherical lens elements to control chromatic aberrations. Each element features a BBAR-G2 coating to reduce flare and ghosting for high contrast and color accuracy. The VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor focus mechanism delivers extreme high-speed and high-precision movement and ensures exceptionally responsive performance and is compatible with Sony Hybrid AF and Eye AF features in enabled cameras. The minimum object distance of 23.6" at 150mm end of the zoom range provides dynamic close-up imaging and add to the lens' remarkable overall usability.
The VC image stabilization facilitates shooting handheld at the 500mm ultra-telephoto position, and the Arca-type-compatible rotating tripod mount has integrated strap attachment loops for safety and support when shooting in the field. Designed and built with moisture-resistant construction for use in inclement conditions, plus a fluorine coating on the front lens element to protect against dust, dirt, and smudging.

Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 DI III Reviews
All-around great lens -- just not for me.
This lens is well-built, relatively lightweight, and the photos it produces exhibit beautiful colors and plenty of detail. The stabilization is excellent and allows photos at shutter speeds slower than I thought would be possible. The autofocus is quick and tracks as good as any other lens I own. It offers a robust feature set. But there were two issues, at least for my application, that prohibit me from granting it a 5 star rating. The first issue involves the push-pull zoom ring lock. Upon using the lens on my A7III, I found it balanced well with my left hand supporting it by the zoom ring. Because of this, whenever I angled the lens upward to take a shot, it would inadvertently engage the zoom lock. I tried holding/supporting the lens in different locations -- both in front of the zoom ring and behind it -- but these positions felt awkward and unbalanced. The second issue was that the lens makes a continuous, slight 'whirring' noise. I switched to manual focus, turned the VC off, but nothing I tried seemed to make it stop. It's not loud, but when shooting video, the sound could be heard in the audio track. I really wanted to like this lens, and found most of its features to be top notch. But the two noted issues were enough to keep me from permanently adding it to my arsenal. Thankfully, 's excellent customer service authorized a return and provided a refund.
Great lens for the money
It's sharp and focuses very fast. Only downside is it's a bit heavy.
Happy with this Lens
The size and weight of this lens takes some getting used to. I'm impressed at the quality of images I am getting from it. It's a great addition with my Sony 24-105 G, and a Zeiss Batis 1.8/85mm lenses. I recommend this Tamron 150-500 lens to anyone wanting to capture good images of wildlife and distant objects. I'm an amateur photo hobbyist, and this lens was the quality I wanted at the price point I could afford. I'm happy with this lens.
Wow! LOVE THIS LENS
I bought my first Tamron 70-300 in a Pawn shop in 2010 for $80. I still use that lens. In the last few months, I bought this 150-500 for my Sony A7siii and a 70-200 for my Canon R6. Both lenses are so good. Pics below are screengrabs from some broll I just did for a doc about sustainability. They are in 4K and 120 fps and the footage is just amazing.

There's a better alternative for me
I've owned the Sony 70-200 G and the 100-400 GM. I sold the 70-200 when I bought the 100-400. I found the 100-400 so large and heavy that it did not accompany me on international trips or on most domestic travel. I now own the Tamron 2.8/70-180 which I use often and almost always carry. But now I am planning a trip on which I will want the very long focal lengths and have the added challenge of low light moonrise shots including dimly lit landscape. What lens and camera should I choose? I compared this Tamron 150-500 and my Tamron 2.8/70-180, both mounted on an a7Riv, with a Sony RX10iv recently purchased from the used department. In all but the lowest light night scenes, the RX10iv equals the performance of the slower and much heavier 150-500. The 20mp image from the RX10iv is fine for even a moderately cropped view on my 27 monitor viewed up close. To stretch the low light s/n ratio with the small sensor RX10iv, I have shot on continuous Hi, then stacked and merged in Ps. For a moonrise, shot at base ISO of 100, I can shoot the f4 RX10iv 2-3 stops faster than the a7Riv with the slower f6.7 Tamron. This enable more frames in the half second or so limitation imposed by the Earth's rotation during moonrise. For really low light performance the 70-180 shot at f/2.8 in crop mode to get an equivalent field of view to that of a FF 270mm produces my best results. This leaves me little purpose for the huge 150-500. As a bonus, the Zeiss lens of the RX10iv has less lateral CA than either of the Tamrons which produce red and blue fringing on full moons against a dark sky. So after testing the big 150-500 on the rising September full moon, careful comparisons using side by side tripods on a mountain top, I have returned the 150-500. It pays to buy from which makes returns easy and economical.
Great lens to get closer!
Excellent lens to use for nature or hard to reach to get closer! Tamron products is excellent!
Just what I wanted
Already took a good wildlife picture day on my way home from FedEx. Only thing I knocked it off for is the zoom clutch or whatever you call it. It's odd. Instructions aren't so hot when trying to figure out what setting to use for the anti-shake settings but there are youtube videos out there to help. Nice purchase.
