This is such a neat set of features that I had never imagined that a lens can have! Damn now I'm reassessing which lens I need to add to my kit next. Thanks for making a video about these man!

First and best video I see on this settings. Great idea about the smartphone app to change settings on the go!

I'm using the Tamron tonight for Monday Night Football as my end zone / Touchdown lens. Used it one game before this one also. It’s seriously such an incredible value and versatile lens it’s almost to good to be true. I’ll mainly use it for events and weddings but have no problem using it for most sports as well. If I was starting out and could only get one lens (and had the budget lol) the Tamron 35-150 would be it! Appreciate the video man this is great stuff!

The A74 had the most issue but still a very very high hit rate I'd dare to say its better for basketball then any other sport. well when the ball is coming your way, down court going away from you maybe not but 150 is still a nice range in the gym from the baseline it we talking high school.

Cool tech for sure! Excited to see what else they add in the future. Thanks for sharing Dunna!

I think that's crazy intuitive, soo many different shooting styles to be explored! Could you imagine if Tamron tied their lens custom modes with the camera's custom modes?! Say M1 on the camera would have certain custom modes on the lens, and then M2 could have entirely different custom modes for the lens. Tamie, you clever girl

Thank you,l was just trying to figure out how to use the lens utility. You answered all my questions

I've always been partial to Sony lenses but this is really cool functionality with an f2 to boot. I definitely wouldn't mind having one of these in my bag! It really opens up so many new possibilities for photography and film making.

THANK YOU for your concise explanation of the functions within the settings of the USB port! Tamron certainly raised the bar with that one feature alone!

As much as I love this it almost feels like mouse configurations where its good to start with then you settle on something and never change it. I do think this will become more popular but just the ability to plug the lens in and do the updates is already a winner

That's probably true, however the real benefit of this is that the settings you settle on and never change are very probably quite different to the settings I decide to stick with, so although we never change our own settings, the flexibility it gives across all the customer base is excellent.

I was quite hesitant previously then gave it a try and now I have an aperture ring on the lens. Something that I really love about recent Sony lenses is the aperture ring and now I have it on the Tamron. Just got this monster today!

Should I buy the FX3 instead as I will be shooting more video than photo?I think my Big Trip kit will be 2 GP 10's, either A7iv or FX3 and two lenses (Tamron 17-28 and 28-75) I'd really appreciate your feedback on this.

Other than the cost & convenience of a USB-C port, how is this any different to the Sigma Dock or Tamron Tap-In console? Not only calibrating the lenses, but adjust AF speed has been available for years now. Also an externally placed port is a weather sealing risk, better one the bottom of the mount behind the seal like they do on other models.

I want the 35-150, and the 150-450. I currently have the 70-180
