Compact Super Telephoto for Nikon Z

The Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD is a versatile zoom lens built for Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras. It covers a 150-500mm focal range on full-frame bodies and delivers an effective 225-750mm reach when mounted on APS-C models. Photographers targeting wildlife, sports, or distant landscapes will appreciate the long reach packed into a relatively compact design.

Variable Aperture and Optical Limits

The maximum aperture shifts from f/5 at 150mm to f/6.7 at 500mm, which restricts low-light capability and shallow depth-of-field control at the long end. The optical formula uses 25 elements in 16 groups, including XLD, LD, and GM glass, to suppress chromatic aberration and distortion across the range. BBAR-G2 coating reduces flare and ghosting, but the variable aperture remains a fixed constraint for exposure planning.

Mount Compatibility and Handling Checks

Confirm your camera uses the Nikon Z mount before ordering, as this version is dedicated to that system. The lens relies on the VXD linear motor for autofocus and offers three VC stabilization modes tuned for different shooting scenarios. Ensure your body supports lens-based stabilization switching and that you are comfortable managing the variable aperture during zoom operation.

Questions about this item

How does the focal range change when I use this lens on an APS-C Nikon Z camera?

On an APS-C Nikon Z body the 150-500mm zoom delivers an effective field of view of 225-750mm, extending reach for wildlife and sports.

What does the f/5-6.7 aperture range mean for exposure and depth of field at the long end?

At 500mm the maximum aperture is f/6.7, so you will need higher ISO or slower shutter speeds in low light, while depth of field remains relatively deep for a super-telephoto.

Which mount standard does this lens use and what functions does it support?

The lens uses the Nikon Z mount, providing full electronic communication for VXD autofocus, VC stabilization with three modes, and EXIF data transfer.
