Lens Overview

World acclaimed ultra-telephoto zoom with first-class optical performance

The TAMRON SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2 (Model A022) is a versatile ultra-telephoto zoom lens designed for photographers seeking exceptional image quality and performance. Its focal length range of 150-600mm provides extensive telephoto reach, making it ideal for wildlife, sports, and aviation photography. Advanced optical construction with 21 elements in 13 groups, including three low dispersion (LD) elements, minimizes chromatic aberrations for sharp, high-contrast images throughout the zoom range. eBAND and BBAR coatings reduce flare and ghosting, improving image clarity and contrast, even in challenging lighting conditions. The built-in Vibration Compensation (VC) system minimizes camera shake effects, enabling sharper handheld shooting at longer focal lengths or in low light. With moisture-resistant seals and a fluorine coating on the front element, it withstands outdoor conditions. The fast and quiet Ultrasonic Silent Drive (USD) autofocus motor ensures quick and accurate focusing, while customizable VC settings and a Flex Zoom Lock mechanism enhance usability and control, making it an excellent choice for capturing distant subjects with precision.

Feature-Packed Ultra-Telephoto Zoom for DSLR Cameras and Mirrorless with Adapter

The TAMRON SP 150-600mm F5-6.3 Di VC ultra-telephoto lens with superb optical performance enables handheld shooting with remarkable definition. Top features include fast AF speed, 4.5-stop VC with 3 stabilization modes, Fluorine Coating, and FLEX ZOOM LOCK.

All TAMRON lenses are built with strict quality standards and design specifications, and the TAMRON 150-600mm is no different. This ultra-telephoto zoom lens combines smart engineering and high performance with quality craftsmanship, durability, and user-friendliness.

Enhanced optics meet greater versatility

Within its optical construction of 21 elements in 13 groups, the SP 150-600mm G2 includes three LD (Low Dispersion) lens elements that completely eliminate axial and transverse chromatic aberrations.

Anti-reflection technologies, eBAND (Extended Bandwidth & Angular-Dependency) Coating and BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating improve light transmission and suppress internal reflections, including light reflected off the camera’s image sensors. So even when taking a backlit or semi-backlit photograph, ghosting and flare caused by reflected light are fully eliminated.

Capture the moment with sharpness and accuracy

The TAMRON SP 150-600mm F5-6.3 Di VC is equipped with the USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive) ring-type motor that delivers excellent responsiveness and control. AF speed is significantly improved from current model, and it enables accurate high-speed focus even when capturing moving subjects. When shooting with AF, the Full-time Manual Focus override allows you to instantly make fine focusing adjustments manually, without having to switch between modes.

Keep it steady with improved VC

TAMRON’s 150-600 G2 now has three types of VC modes, and it is possible to choose the optimum VC mode according to the situation for taking a photograph, such as when wishing to pan the camera. The VC (Vibration Compensation) effectiveness is equivalent to 4.5 stops, based on image stabilization performance levels established by CIPA when using in VC MODE 3. The VC minimizes blurring caused by slight camera movement, which is prevalent with long telephoto lenses and even more troublesome with higher-resolution cameras. VC enhances the freedom of hand-held shooting at slower shutter speeds required by low-light conditions such as dusk.

VC MODE 1 is the standard mode that strikes a great balance between the stability of the viewfinder image and the stabilization effects.
VC MODE 2 is exclusively used for panning.
VC MODE 3 prioritizes the stabilization of the captured images and forgoes the stabilization of the viewfinder image.

With the optional accessory TAMRON TAP-in Console™, you can custom the configuration of VC MODE 1. Choose the viewfinder view of either Standard or viewfinder image priority.

FLEX ZOOM LOCK mechanism enables zoom lock at any position

FLEX ZOOM LOCK mechanism quickly locks or unlocks the zoom at any position simply by sliding the zoom ring. Photographers can shoot from any angle without the zoom extending unintentionally. Additionally, the customary Zoom Lock switch prevents unwanted barrel extension during transportation.
