Tamron 150-600mm G2

[antoeknee]

I know a few people have shown some interest in this lens and I've just read a review in a magazine.

Some interesting points:
Weighs only 2Kg so quite a bit lighter than the Sigma Sport but similar to Contemporary.
Has weather seals though not specified how extensive these are
AF is fast and able to track subjects in sports/wildlife
Sharpness is inferior to first version at 150 but improves and is superior from 400 to 600mm

Of course it would be good to have a proper side by side test with the Sigma lenses but in the conclusion it starts with, 'The G2 is nearly as impressive as the Sigma 150-600 Sport.....'

Would be good to have a good hands on review about this lens.
