Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 DI VC USD G2 EF mount - Film & Video Zoom Lens
The Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2 telephoto lens has improved optical performance as it allows handheld shooting with outstanding sharpness. Compared to its predecessor it includes better overall optical performance and higher AF speed, VC improvements and fluorine coating. This coating is water and grease repellent, thus protecting the lens from damaging effects.
Regarding the optics, it has three LD (low dispersion) lens elements that completely eliminate axial and transverse chromatic aberrations. It also includes eBAND coating and BBAR coating that improve light transmission and suppress internal reflections.
The VC stabilizer is based on performance levels and there are 3 modes to choose from: standard mode, panorama-only mode and the one that prioritizes stabilization of captured images and forgoes viewfinder image stabilization.


The new Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2 telephoto lens has been redesigned from the previous model improving the optical performance allowing handheld shooting with extraordinary sharpness. It is an extraordinary telephoto lens dedicated to nature, wildlife and sports enthusiasts. It is also a very good lens for video recording.
His USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive) focusing motor provides excellent response and control as AF speed has been significantly improved over the previous model. High-speed focusing is very accurate even when capturing moving subjects.
This Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2 telephoto lens offers three types of VC (stabilization). Mode 1 provides a perfect balance between image stability and stabilization effects; mode 2 is exclusively for panoramic images; and mode 3 prioritizes the stabilization of captured images and forgoes stabilization of the viewfinder image.
The front surface of the lens element is coated with a water and grease repellent fluorine protective compound. The lens surface is easier to clean and less vulnerable to the damaging effects of dirt, dust, moisture and fingerprints. This means that outdoor use is even better, as it is protected against adverse conditions.
