Pros: Focal excitement, robustness, weight, image quality

Cons: Low, soft TA, no stabilizer, very unbalanced with chromatic aberrations at the highest focal point, especially in backlight

Opinion: I'm just using this zoom, the first impression is very good, the quality of the returned images is satisfactory if diaframed over f11 otherwise TA is too soft, if you find it used at a good price take it, the af is slow so In avifauna is useless if not on steady subjects, while in sports genre defends well, 500mm stretches a lot and has no monopod and difficult to handle since it is very unbalanced by the length of the lens, another painful note is the image quality To 500mm that is enough just diaphragming over f11, up to 400mm works dignitously, for the rest is a good lens if you happen to tell it less than 500 coffers, otherwise I recommend migrating to more powerful models.rnVoto 6/7 .

Pros: Value for money. Quality and sharpness of the images produced

Cons: Weight and footprint, making slow focus, issues that arise between the lens is compatibility Canon SLR

Opinion: L 'I bought used for a year and a half. At a great price. I was fully satisfied because, using it to nature photos and birdlife, the abbinavo the mono foot and photos that were were better than I would have expected, for quality and sharpness. Of course, for the 'bird in flight at times the focus could not capture well the image, but when he did the results you changed your day! The real problem is that, after about 5/6 months of use, my 6d began to show signs of incompatibility with the objective, emitting an annoying sound / vibration and indicating "error" on the monitor. The first few times smontavo the goal, gave a clean solution for the contacts and the rimontavo. Everything off again regularly. But the problem became much more frequent and finally final. I can use the lens only on the 600d, which vibrates, but then snaps pictures. Except that the image quality of a 600d is hardly what I would like, for this kind of foto. rnDevo send it to support Tamron, although I fear that to finish destroying the trip. Meanwhile I have happily spent a Canon L 400 stabilized. The focal length is shorter, but the 'AF and' beautiful. The sharpness was better in Tamron.

Pros: value for money, lightweight

Cons: footprint at maximum focal length, slow autofocus, lack stabilizer

Opinion: The construction is of decent quality and is light enough. It can be used both at the pump with the ring. At the maximum focal length of the lens is a lever arm sensitive. The optical quality is good. A 500mm is comparable to 400mm canon 100-400. The autofocus is slow and not always capture the lens or follows it. This rules out the birdlife. With the attack of my 5D mark III is a small game. The lack of stabilizer feels. On the other hand for the price with which you can buy, is a good lens that allows you to explore distant subjects, without depauperarti. With the APSC becomes a 800mm, but the image quality will expire a little. And 'well not use it with duplicating machines, because the autofocus does not work and the quality dacade.
