Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD Review

photographylife.com

The Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD is a compelling choice for wildlife photographers seeking a versatile telephoto zoom without breaking the bank. Priced attractively at $799, it undercuts similar Canon and Nikon offerings while delivering solid build quality and a fully weather-sealed design. The lens impresses with its lightweight and compact form, although the lack of a tripod collar necessitates an additional purchase for optimal tripod use. Autofocus is swift and quiet, aided by Tamron's USD motor, and the VC system offers decent stabilization. However, the reversed zoom ring direction may require some adjustment for Canon users. Overall, the Tamron delivers great value and performance, making it a strong contender in its class.

Gallery and impressions: The Tamron 100-400mm F4.5-6.3 is light, sharp and stabilized: DPReview | Photography News, Gear Reviews & Community

dpreview.com

The Tamron 100-400mm F4.5-6.3 Di VC USD is a standout telephoto lens, especially for the price. Its lightweight design and impressive image stabilization make it a practical choice for travel photographers and wildlife enthusiasts. Autofocus is silent and quick, ensuring you won't miss action shots. Optically, it delivers sharp images across its zoom range, though it struggles with vignetting on full-frame cameras, which is easily correctable in post. The slow aperture range is a downside, limiting low-light performance. While the optional tripod collar is costly, the lens still provides excellent value, earning a strong recommendation for those seeking a versatile, stabilized telephoto option.

Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD lens Model A035 - Photo Review

photoreview.com.au

The Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD lens stands out with its lightweight build and competitive pricing, making it a practical choice for sports and wildlife photographers. Its robust construction and dust/moisture resistance cater to outdoor enthusiasts, while the 4-stop stabilization aids handheld shooting. However, it can feel bulky and may require frequent manual focus adjustments, especially at close distances. Autofocus can be hit-or-miss if not carefully set. Despite minor edge softening and vignetting at wide apertures, the lens delivers good image quality and smooth bokeh. Overall, it’s a solid contender offering great value against pricier counterparts from Canon and Nikon.

Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD - Imaging Resource

imaging-resource.com

The Tamron 100-400mm F/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD lens is a mixed bag for Nikon DSLR users. On the plus side, it offers fast autofocus and excellent image stabilization thanks to its Dual Micro-Processing Unit, making it a solid choice for handheld ultra-telephoto shots. The lens is also commendably lightweight for its class, enhancing portability. However, the f/4.5-6.3 aperture range is somewhat limiting for low-light conditions, and the lack of weather sealing might concern outdoor photographers. While the eBAND Coating helps reduce flare, some might find the lens' performance in challenging lighting less than stellar. Overall, it's a decent performer with noteworthy features but leaves room for improvement.
