Tamron 150-500mm F/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD

The Tamron 150-500mm F/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD is an ultra-telephoto zoom built for full-frame mirrorless shooters who need 500mm reach in a genuinely compact, handholdable body. Its small zoom-ring rotation and close-focusing telephoto capability make it suited to wildlife, birding, and sports photographers who need to react quickly to changing distances.

• 150-500mm Reach in a Compact Body: Measures 209.6mm (8.3in) and 93mm in diameter, extending to about 283mm (11.1in) at 500mm.
• 75° Zoom Ring Rotation: A short arc lets you swing to the desired focal length with minimal hand movement.
• 25 Elements in 16 Groups: Uses 1 XLD, 5 LD, and 2 hybrid aspherical elements with BBAR-G2 coating to control chromatic aberration, ghosting, and flare.
• VXD Linear Motor Autofocus: Delivers high-speed, high-precision focus tracking with low drive noise.
• VC Image Stabilization: Supports handheld shooting in low light at the ultra-telephoto end.
• Close-Focus to 0.6m at 150mm (1:3.1 Magnification): Enables tele-macro shooting not possible with conventional ultra-telephoto zooms.
• Mount-Specific Controls: Sony/Fuji versions include a 3-mode VC switch, Nikon Z includes a Linear/Non-Linear focus ring switch, and Fuji X adds an MF Speed switch.
