Verdict

Overall, the Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 G2 is a good value super telephoto lens that is tough and handles nicely. Its image stabilization is considered better than its competition. The lens is sharp and autofocus is quick, but occasionally misses. However, there are some issues with the VR (anti-vibration) when attached to a Nikon Z9. The lens is heavy, making it difficult to use without a tripod. Some users have reported autofocus freezing up and soft images at 600mm. It is recommended to get the tap-in console to go with the lens. Despite some drawbacks, the lens is praised for its focal length and sharpness, making it a good choice for bird photography.
