Pros:Compactness, yield at 500, cost in the grey market, construction, AF, general sharpness.
Cons:Weight (but it's a supertele... there is), does not multiply.
Opinion:I needed a supertele that I would carry around... and in the market they only make 2 , the Canon 100 500 and this. The others are huge in comparison or the 100 400 DO NOT GO like this if you exclude the Sony that costs almost 3 times... It impressed me positively, I expected sharp but not so "clean". No AC, in the landscape if the sky is clear it is embarrassing already at TA at 500mm on 42mpx. Pesa yes, but it's already fine on the slow a7r3 as AF and I dare not imagine on A9ii or A1 ... it does not multiply but chissene, for that there is the white and long brother of Sony. The thing that shocked me is to see that in fact it is a fixed 500 that drops to 150mm with the yield at TA better at 500 than at 150 ... Tamron is doing REALLY, REALLY GREAT stuff. ps taken in GREY FROM THE UK at £850 with 3 years warranty.
Pros:Transportability, weight, compactness and quality/price
Cons:For the price I would say nothing
Opinion:Having tried them both it is quite natural for me to compare it with the 200/600. As quality and speed the Sony wins in my opinion, but not so clearly. The advantages of the tamron are: transportability, understood more as a footprint (10/11 cm shorter) than as weight and the most affordable price. Honestly if I found a good opportunity in the used I would evaluate the exchange, but the tamron remains an excellent lens that for what it gives 'is worn willingly and I will change it only if I really find the opportunity of life with the 200/600. Freehand is really agile and pleasant to use and if you keep it at 499 mm, you can keep the F 6.3, when you go to 500 mm shoots at F6.7. I use it on a7R3 and I can photograph without problems the fauna and also birds of prey in flight, such as the kite, the buzzard, the golden eagle. It's my first review and I hope it's useful to someone.
