Are you focusing and exposing all in one go? From what I've heard, Tamron's VC takes half a second to stabilize. Half-press the shutter button to focus, set exposure, and engage the VC. Then wait half a second for the VC to stabilize while half-pressing the shutter button. Once stabilized, press all the way and expose.
I hope that helps! Arie

Hello Arie,
I heard the same news about Tamron VC and required settle time of about 1/2 sec. I'll try it this weekend.
If it is true I wonder why i have VC. For 1 sec I can recompose and shoot with Ball Head and nonVC lens I need VC only for grabbing shoot of my children but for 1/2 second they are moving to the next corner. Maybe I have to play with AI servo mode just to keep the moving subject in track - bird, animal or kid.
Have a nice weekend,
Miro
