Product details
The 150-500mm F/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD (model A057) not only delivers high image quality, but also offers a high level of operating comfort. Despite the impressive 500 mm focal length, it is very comfortable to handle with a length of only 209.6 mm and a maximum diameter of 93 mm. As the first TAMRON lens for full-frame cameras with Sony E-mount, it is equipped with a VC image stabiliser, which enables sharp ultra-telephoto shots to be taken freehand. The optical construction comprises 25 elements in 16 groups, including several special glass elements and hybrid aspheres for correcting optical aberrations. The BBAR-G2 coating on the lenses minimises reflections inside the lens and suppresses ghosting and flare, which are particularly common in backlit shots. At a focal length of 150 mm, the close focusing distance is 0.6 m, making the lens suitable for impressive close-ups. In short, the 150-500mm F/5-6.7 is a very versatile lens that is ideal for a wide range of subjects - from landscape and wildlife to sports photography.

Overall ratingVery good95/100
Very good95/100
- For an entry-level lens in the ultra-telephoto zoom range, the new Tamron offers very good image quality and pleasant ease of use
- In the 500 millimetre setting, the lens becomes very top-heavy due to the wide extension of the tube
- The tripod clamp is then a good help
Tamron supplies the segment of entry-level lenses for the Nikon Z system with appealing solutions. This is no different in the case of the 150- 500mm F/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD, as it gives the photographer great creative freedom in the extreme telephoto range and good image results for little money.

Very good90/100
... The drop in resolution is again very low, that of the contrast moderate. Stopping down almost cancels it out - but that is already f/11 in our measurement. The decisive 500mm unfortunately performs worse. At open aperture 6.7, the values in the centre of the image almost correspond to those at 275mm, but the drop in contrast and resolution at the edges is now more pronounced...
Very good90/100
- Good resolution throughout the zoom range
- No distortion
- Only marginal edge shading
- Compact lens design
- Fair price: 1,499 euros
- Without focus holding button
Very good98/100
- For an ultra-telephoto zoom lens in this performance class, the new Tamron is relatively compact. The price-performance ratio is excellent.
- The weight of 1,800 grams makes the use of a tripod necessary. A protective case or a quiver would be desirable for the scope of delivery.
The new Tamron 150-500mm F/5-6.7Di III VC VXD is a special lens for sports and nature photographers who expect extreme telephoto performance for comparatively little money. The lens is very well made and pleases with its many setting options and fast autofocus.
