The 150-500mm F5-6.7 is Tamron's first ultra-telephoto zoom lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras that reaches the 500mm focal length and when used on APS-C mirrorless format cameras, the zoom range is an approximate 225-750mm full-frame equivalent. Even when extended to the 500mm telephoto end, the lens is still compact enough for comfortable handheld shooting. This zoom lets users enjoy casual shooting with steady performance and high image quality in the ultra-telephoto realm where conventional wisdom once dictated a tripod. To support handheld shooting in the ultra-telephoto range, the 150-500mm is equipped with VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive), a linear motor focus mechanism that delivers excellent quietness and agile performance, and Tamron's proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) mechanism for high-level image stabilization. At the 150mm end, the lens offers an MOD of 23.6” for powerful and dramatic close-ups.

Q: QuestionWhy doesn't Best Buy carry this for the Nikon Z cameras?(0 answers)
Asked by Gary
Q: QuestionWill this work for an a6700?(1 answer)
A: AnswerVery well. Works beautifully on my a6600 and am planning to purchase the a6700 to pair with for my wildlife photos. I also use the Sony 70-350g and find this Tamron slightly better for wildlife. Gets you considerably closer to your subject. Just be aware it is heavy and at 750mm on an aps-c camera it is hard to hold steady.Answered by Dupe
- A: AnswerProbably late on this answer but you can always check Tamrons site and see if they’re running any deals, they just had a rebate deal on a lot of lenses and I think they are currently running another

Awesome Compact Ultra Zoom Lens
Great compact ultra zoom lens! Some say it is too heavy but that is all relative. Take this lens in a for hand held shots all the time with no trouble. Was between this and the Sony 200-600. No regrets. Tamron for the win.
