The Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2 is a second-generation super-telephoto zoom that redefines long-range versatility for Nikon F-mount photographers. Spanning a massive 4x zoom range, this lens is a premier choice for wildlife, birding, and sports photography.

Superior Super-Telephoto Optics
Refined Optical Design: Features three Low Dispersion (LD) glass elements that virtually eliminate axial and transverse chromatic aberrations. This ensures high-resolution clarity and color fidelity across the entire 150mm to 600mm range.
Anti-Reflection Coatings: Both eBAND and BBAR coatings have been applied to suppress internal reflections, ghosting, and flare, maintaining deep contrast even when shooting in harsh, backlit conditions.
Full-Frame & DX Compatibility: Designed for FX-format Nikons, it also offers a staggering 225-900mm equivalent reach when mounted on DX-format bodies.
Advanced Stability & Precision AF
4.5-Stop Vibration Compensation (VC): The VC system provides up to 4.5 stops of shake correction with three specialized modes:
Mode 1: Balanced for general handheld shooting and a stabilized viewfinder.
Mode 2: Optimized specifically for panning with moving subjects.
Mode 3: Maximizes stabilization for the captured image only (no viewfinder stabilization).
USD Autofocus Motor: A ring-type Ultrasonic Silent Drive (USD) motor delivers rapid, high-precision focus tracking for fast-moving subjects. Full-time manual focus override is always available for fine-tuned creative control.
Electromagnetic Diaphragm: Provides highly consistent exposure control, particularly essential when shooting at high-speed continuous frame rates.
Intelligent Handling & Durable Build
FLEX ZOOM LOCK Mechanism: A versatile lock that allows you to secure the zoom position at any focal length to prevent accidental “zoom creep” while shooting. A secondary conventional lock secures the lens at 150mm for safe transport.
Weather-Ready Construction: Features a moisture-resistant, sealed design and a protective fluorine coating on the front element that repels water, oil, and dust.
Arca-Type Compatible Tripod Mount: The included removable, rotating tripod collar features a built-in Arca-type compatible foot, allowing for seamless mounting to most professional tripods and monopods without needing extra plates.
TAP-in Console Ready: Fully compatible with Tamron’s optional TAP-in Console for firmware updates and personal customization of the AF and VC settings.
