Also of interest to many of us is weight. Sure was surprised that the new Tamron is not light but it's all relative if you are thinking of it as a 200-600 replacement:
Sigma 100-400 = 40 ounces (actual weight of mine with caps is 43 ounces without foot)
Sony 100-400 = 49 ounces (actual weight of mine with caps is 56 ounces without foot)
Tamron 150-500 = 67 ounces
Sony 200-600 = 74 ounces
(Sony 1.4X TC = 6 ounces)
(Sony 100-400 foot = 3 ounces)
(Haoge Arca foot and ring for Sigma = 4 ounces at a cost of $50)
