I really like the Tamron, but from what I hear it's swings and roundabouts with the Sigma. Actual reviews I've seen say the Tamron is better at the long end, but I've heard conflicting things from users. Trouble is with lenses like this it's very difficult to get the maximum performance hand held, and there's also sample variation so it's no wonder there's differing views. I don't think you can go wrong with either TBH.Toby you got the Tamron 150-600 do you like it as I am torn between that and the Sigma 150- 600 C for zoo and a fun lens

Again going by reviews only the Nikon is supposedly better at the short end, but the Tammy better at the long end. Here's another kicker though, the Tamron is noticeably better at 550mm than 600mm and if it's already better than the Nikon at 600mm I can only assume it's noticeably better if you compare it at 550mm vs 500mm on the Nikon. The other thing is the Nikon weighs 500g more, and again according to reviews the AF on the Nikon is not as good.I'm going to have a try of the nik' 200-500 next time I meet up with someone who has it (local fellow) and see if it's any different the way I shoot, it'll either confirm that my Tammy is suffice or be another tick in the other halves reasons for divorce list....(I see you all nodding in agreement or empathy)

Good man, I look forward to the resultsJust received the Nikon 200-500 for hire over the xmas period. Will be testing it against my Tamron 150-600 to see the difference![]()
