Tamron vs Sigma 150-600: Some Background Info Jenny will either drape the beanbag over the seat in front of her (if no one is sitting there) or on the arm-rest while I will brace myself on the armrest and/or my knee. Jenny tends to use a bean bag with panning plate while I tend to use the Sigma hand-held. We could have done the standard line up of apples on our garden wall and photographed the fruit with the same body at the same apertures but these types of tests have already been done! We feel this is a more accurate way to review - under actual safari conditions and personal preferences. Please keep in mind that each lens is mounted on a different body - the Tamron with a Nikon D800 (and more recently with the Nikon D7100) and the Sigma with a Nikon D3S - and each photographer has a different style of shooting and will use different apertures, ISO and zoom settings but the subjects are identical. We spent just 6 days in Madikwe Game Reserve where we had sunshine, overcast and rainy conditions so we hope these images provide a more balanced view of what each lens is capable of. Many of the existing lens reviews have images of one lens or the other lens and many of the images have been captured under just one lighting condition. (You may also want to see how the Sigma lens compares to expensive professional lenses - if so, check out our page where we compare two award-winning wildlife photographers and their gear). We have done reviews of both the Tamron 150-600 and Sigma 150-600 lenses but realise that many photographers will want to see side-by-side image comparisons hence this Tamron vs Sigma 150-600 page.
