It doesn't get much better. The G2 is a fantastic piece of glass. I have, so far, shot a stage show and wildlife with nary a problem. For the price I'm going to give this two thumbs up. Image also 2 thumbs up. I was expecting some fall off at the edges at 600 mm but my eye can't detect it and nothing shows in the blow ups so if its there it is so minor I'm not going to worry about it. I shoot with a Canon 5D M4, Canon 70D and use 10-22mm, 18-135mm, 28-135mm, 70-200 f2.8, and now the 150-600. If you are interested in this piece of glass my recommendation is get it - you won't be sorry.

Extremely sharp compared to first gen lens. Barrel lock at any focal length is a great feature. Need to lock it at 475mm? Go for it! Three VC modes with excellent stabilization. Well designed, solid construction with six year warranty. Tap console included at no extra charge made this an even more attractive offer.

this lens has lived up to the many reviews I have read. while we all want the 500 and 600 from canon, they are very big and expensive. I have used the zoom feature of this lens although normally I am all the way out at 600. its a great value. I have used a duffle bag lined with towels while connected to a 7D for storage and transport. I also got the lens wrap as its out in the car a lot for protection. The zoom feels snug and I will likely call Tamron and check with them after an upcoming bird vacation.

my Tamron 150-600mm G2 lens meets all expectations. the lens behaves as specified. test shots indoors, using tripod and mirror lockup, still required a minimum shutter speed to get sharp pictures at the long end; to achieve proper exposure with these slow apertures requires a higher ISO/low noise (good low light) camera. I cannot comment on the Tap-in console, as I have not performed any focus testing yet to determine if lens corrections are necessary.

Great build quality of this lens. Like how you can lock it in any zoom position. On a crop sensor camera you really reach out and touch the animals you're shooting. Very sharp images. It is a big bulky lens don't get me wrong, but if you're looking for this type of focal length lens this is something you accept. I am not disappointed.
