Compact and lightweight
The Tamron 150-500 has been designed to be compact and lightweight so that it can still be used handheld whilst producing high-quality images. The lens measures 209.6mm when retracted and just 283mm when extended to its 500mm focal length and weighs only 1725g.
Zooming the lens from 150mm to 500mm only requires rotating the zoom ring through an arc of just 75°, which is less than a quarter of a turn, allowing you to make rapid adjustments, while shooting, with minimal movement.
Outstanding image quality
The optical construction of the lens is made up of 25 elements in 16 groups, and uses one XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion), five LD (Low Dispersion), and two Hybrid Aspherical lens elements to control aberrations, including axial chromatic aberrations.
Quiet and Fast VXD Focusing
The lens delivers extreme high-speed, high-precision movement and incredibly responsive performance thanks to the highly acclaimed VXD linear motor focus mechanism. Fast, comfortable and accurate focusing is assured even when using the ultra-telephoto end of the 500mm focal length.
You can rest assured that you will never miss those dramatic, action packed moments when shooting sports events, birds and aviation photography thanks to the focus tracking that has been greatly improved to facilitate the capturing of fast-moving subjects.
The lens is also fantastic for shooting video, as well as stills, thanks to the linear motor that helps to reduce drive noise and vibrations that can be produced while focusing. This allows the lens to be used in low-noise situations.
Excellent image stabilisation
The Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 produces outstanding, shake-free images and video thanks to it’s VC (vibration compensation) mechanism. There are 3 modes to choose from to ensure that you have total control over your creativity no matter the shooting conditions.
- Mode 1: Standard
- Mode 2: Exclusively for Panning
- Mode 3: Framing Priority
Minimum focusing distance of 0.6m
The lens boasts a minimum focusing distance of 0.6m, at the 150mm zoom length and 1.8m when fully extended to 500mm making it an excellent choice for macro shooting. Capturing images of flowers and insects is made even easier thanks to the lens magnification ratio of 1:3.1, at 150mm, allowing the user to maintain a decent shooting distance from the subject.
BBAR-G2 Coating
The lens has been given a BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection Generation 2) Coating. This is to ensure that ghosting and flare is kept to a minimum level while maintaining all the minute details, even when the subject is backlit.
This combination of features works in harmony to provide sharp images with natural colours and rich saturation.
Suitable for all weather conditions
You can use the Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 in even the toughest of weather conditions thanks to its moisture-resistant construction. The front surface of the lens element has been coated with a protective fluorine compound, making it water- and oil-repellent. This also makes the surface of the lens much easier to wipe clean and makes it more resistant to dirt, dust, moisture and fingerprints.
Compatible with many camera-specific features and functions
The Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 lens has been designed so that it is compatible with an array of special features and functions of the Sony Mirrorless system including Fast Hybrid AF and Eye AF.
