I also use this lens and get great results and these photos are a true example of the capability of this lens and the photographer...Rich

Wow...thank you Ken! I hope you love your lens as much as I love mine! Don't settle for it if the photos don't look too sharp..get another one! And I'd love to hear back from you on what you think after you get it. :-)
Hi Marsha,
I bought the Tamron 150 to 600 and I think it's amazingly sharp. It's too hot here now to go looking for birds, plus they are are probably hiding in the shade someplace, so I settled for the Blue Moon last night. Thanks for helping me make my decision.

This looks fantastic, Ken. It certainly is sharp! Well done and I am happy that you shared this with me . I'll be looking forward to some bird photos when you get some. Thank you!

Hi Marsha,
Here's a mallard picture taken with my new Tamron 150-600. I submitted it elsewhere on the forum, but I thought I'd send it to you in case you missed it.
Best regards,
Ken

Beautiful, Ken!! Are you able to get out now for some birding? Hope you are not in an area with a lot of smoke.
Hope you like your lens as much as I like mine.

Thanks for your response, Marsha. No smoke in our area so far. I'll be going to Malibu Lagoon State Beach with a birding group on Aug 28. I'll probably be the only dedicated photographer, so I hope I don't slow them down too much. The good thing is, they'll know the names of the birds.

That will be fun...bring pen and paper...maybe a secretary for notes on the names of the birds! Will you have a monopod with?

Yes, I bought a new monopod shortly after buying the lens. The sections on my old monopod were stuck so hard, the leg came apart when I tried to extend it. I made a quick trip to Samy's Camera and bought a new one. I used it for the moon and duck pictures that posted on UHH. The rest of the group can act as my secretary. I taught with them for about 30 years, so I'll just call them.
