1 The 150-500mm has a linear stepping motor, unlike the DSLR 150-600mm

2 The optical stabiliser presents operating modes that can be switched between.

3 This optic looks similar to the 150-600mm DSLR lens, but it's quite different.

Аt first glance, the Tamron 150-500mm looks and similar to its DSLR-format 150-600mm G2 sibling. The range of switches, for triple-mode VC (Vibration Compensation), auto/manual focusing and an autofocus range limiter, is pretty much identical. Unlike many other Tamron lenses, the 'VC' optical stabiliser has switchable operating modes: Modes 1 and 2 are for static and panning shots respectively; Mode 3 is a 'framing priority' option that only applies stabilisation during actual exposures. This makes it easier to track erratically moving objects in the camera's viewfinder or on the rear screen, similar to Mode 3 on some Canon telephoto lenses and Nikon's 'Sport VR' mode.
