Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD Fujifilm X-Mount camera lens

Ultra-Telephoto Zoom for Fujifilm X-Mount

The Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD is a variable-aperture zoom lens built for Fujifilm X-mount mirrorless cameras. It covers a 150-500mm focal range, delivering an equivalent 225-750mm field of view on APS-C sensors. The optical design uses 25 elements in 16 groups, including XLD, LD and GM glass, to control aberrations. It is intended for photographers who need long reach in a single optic.

Compact Build with Integrated Tripod Mount

At 8.3 inches long and Ø93mm wide, the barrel weighs 62.8 oz and accepts standard filters. An Arca-Swiss compatible tripod foot with strap holes is included, removing the need for a separate quick-release plate. The VXD linear motor drives autofocus quickly and quietly, while the minimum focus distance shifts from 23.6 inches at 150mm to 70.9 inches at 500mm, achieving a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.1 at the wide end.

Steady Handling at Extreme Reach

VC (Vibration Compensation) stabilisation helps keep images sharp during hand-held shooting at 500mm, where camera shake is magnified. The BBAR-G2 coating suppresses ghosting and flare when pointing toward bright light sources, preserving contrast in backlit wildlife or sports scenes. The lens is not suited for buyers who need a constant f/2.8 aperture for low-light indoor work or a wider angle of view for environmental context.
