  • Despite having the 'lightest weight in its class', Tamron's 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD is a large and bulky lens that adds just over a kilogram to the weight of the gear you carry. It also takes up quite a lot of space in your camera bag so if you're p...

  • Useful super-telephoto reach, Relatively compact and lightweight, Well built with good performance
  • Shorter reach than most super-tele zooms, Typically ‘slow' aperture rating, Tripod mount ring not included
  • Tamron's updated G2 (Generation 2) lenses have really impressed us recently, especially its 70-200mm f/2.8 zoom, which is simply fabulous. This first-edition 100-400mm performs well straight out of the blocks, packing real punch into a refreshingly lightw...

  • Encombrement et légèreté, Stabilisation efficace, Autofocus silencieux, Ergonomie agréable, Pas d'aberrations chromatiques
  • Manque d'homogénéité, Vignetage important, Collier de pieds non fourni
  • Avec ce 100-400 mm, Tamron montre une fois de plus ses qualités d'opticien. Face à ses principaux concurrents, l'objectif développe des arguments solides avec un poids maîtrisé, une stabilisation efficace et un piqué élevé au centre. Il souffre d'un manqu...
