Agreed!

Thanks man, very helpful.

[@monicavalente2051]

Hello, is the lens stabilized? The acronym is Di III VC VXD G2, with G2 at the end produced in 2023? Thank you!

[@BradBeaird]

It is not stabilized.

[@HenrikHoyheim]

The G2 version, that will be released later this year, will have Tamrons vibration control (image stabilization).

[@Blumis2000]

What do you think of the version 2 that's coming out? Worth upgrading the old one?

[@BradBeaird]

I doubt I’ll be upgrading honestly. I’ve not had any real issues with the version I have now so probably keep it for a while

@@BradBeaird would this be a good lens to have for low light or night sports (softball football) photography?

[@BradBeaird]

@mikewhitehurst6508 f2.8 is about as fast as you can find for a longer zoom lens. I’ve used it for night time soccer before and it seems to be good.

@@BradBeaird thank you sir.... I appreciate the answer.
