Tamron 150-600mm photos
Jan 24, 2014 18:52:52 #
Today I shot 6 photos of wildlife with my new Tamron 150-600mm lens. Today was cloudy and hazy so the photos are not perfect, but I wanted to try the new lens out and it worked great. Very fast focusing. All photos were hand held.

Looks good Regis, how does the price compare to the Sigma 150-500?
I paid $950 for my Bigsig...

Returning monday for the Nikon version.

Thank you. The Sigma 150-500mm is between $895-$995.
Tamron 150-600mm is $1069. I have a feeling the prices of the Sigma will have to come down.

Fast focusing and VC (vibration compensation) on this new lens helps me to hand held my shots.

That's a great price Regis and it will obviously be a popular lens.
I doubt the Sigma will reduce much more, the retail is normally $1100 over here.
What surprises me is that the "big name" lenses don't reduce in price so they compete more. It costs no more to make a Canon or Nikon lens than it does a Sigma or any other make...Sigma in fact are the only lens manufacturer still making lenses in Japan without the need to go to cheaper manufacturing areas..if they can do it, the other should be able to sell cheaper as their costs are much less...I guess like anything else, you pay for the name...no wonder the Bigsig and your new lens are and will be so popular.

Thank you. Oh oh. I read where the new Tamron 150-600mm lens for the Nikon is not available for awhile.

Thank you.
I am keeping my 50-500mm Sigma. However, I am selling my Sigma 150-500mm lens to B&H for, I hope, $465. It is in excellent shape and was shipped to them last Monday.
