Opinion:Giovax, I've been using it for two years for birdlife, and I've never seen a speck of dust, which I can't say the same about when I had the sigma 150-600 sport. I find it very sharp with AF more than excellent. I don't understand where yours absorbs all this dust. I have a friend who also took it with me, and he doesn't have your problems with the optics in question either.
Cons:Fills with dust, at 500mm very soft, AF not very fast
Opinion:I bought this lens convinced that I would get a great lens to use it in birdlife since it came from a Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary with Ftz. Used it for a week with Nikon z6ii and I didn't like it. At 500mm not very sharp and with the other focal lengths very soft, AF not a splinter and in addition you risk finding yourself after a couple of months with a lens to have to disassemble and clean due to the amount of dust that infiltrates. In the end I made the return and took back the Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary. Waiting until you have some extra cash to pick up a Nikon z 180-600mm.
Opinion:A superb lens with high performance and superior image quality. The flaws are quite relevant though, the weight is a lot but what matters most is the ease with which dust creeps inside the lens. Every time you pump air by zooming, the finest powder enters under the lenses and should be taken for assistance to send it away. Too bad because it would have been an excellent alternative to lenses that cost at least twice as much. Excellent materials.
Pros:Autofocus, stabilizer, build quality, size and weight
Cons:For now, no one
Opinion:I was pleasantly impressed, really good construction, fast and silent focusing as well as the stabilizer that works very well even at maximum extension. It has been using it for some time mainly my wife who in a short time got the hang of it and I tried to make some comparisons with Nikon's 180-600. Excluding the 100mm difference, this Tamron does not look bad at all, on the contrary. The ability to focus at a closer distance than the Nikon, for certain types of photography, can be an aspect to take into consideration. As far as we are concerned, therefore, our vote can only be positive. Well done Tamron!
Pros:The top is very manageable in size and weight
Cons:At the moment none
Opinion:I got this lens because I wanted a long zoom that would allow me to use it on the Z8 where I use it, and I must say that from the first shots I was satisfied with it. The autofocus works very well and with the 3D tracking hooked the subject does not let go, very performing and precise. The weight in the long run is felt so the use of a monopod is necessary especially for me who have problems with my hands, but overall it is a lens with an excellent performance both for the IQ and for its sharpness. I'll have to test it more thoroughly but at the moment I'm very happy with it. I add a small update and I must say that after several shooting sessions both for sportsmen who practice windsurfing -Kitesurfing - hydrofoil I got excellent results both on the autofocus side I did not miss a shot, all in focus with a more or less fast burst, with an image quality definition and cleanliness in terms of iso that really amazed me.
