Tamron 18-400mm f/3.5-6.3 VC coming ... - JJ_SO - 11-09-2017
Tamron is only following Sigma's tracks.
And broadening/improving them. The tamron version comes with an option for a tripod collar which might not improve the overall steadiness but is quite welcome for use with a Gimbal or at least better balancing.
So, in my eyes Tamron just does a little bit more in terms of switches, accessories, VR, handling (the all-time zoom brake is rather cool on the 150-600 G2). And Sigma often has an offer which is optically a tad better, sometimes a tiny tad.
