Useful super-telephoto reach, Relatively compact and lightweight, Well built with good performance
Shorter reach than most super-tele zooms, Typically ‘slow' aperture rating, Tripod mount ring not included
Tamron's updated G2 (Generation 2) lenses have really impressed us recently, especially its 70-200mm f/2.8 zoom, which is simply fabulous. This first-edition 100-400mm performs well straight out of the blocks, packing real punch into a refreshingly lightw...

Overall, the Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD lens was a pleasure to use. I did need to adjust my shooting habits to handle this large optic, and my camera/lens/tripod adapter combo was not light of weight or short in size, but once I got past that I...
Inexpensive, great image quality for the price, very lightweight
Tripod collar not included, PRICE: $799
