I'd rather use a pen and paper than a Tamron telephoto...
Not me, I’m definitely interested in this lens.
I was gonna get the Sigma 100-400, but the Tamron should have faster AF and hopefully better OS.

I hope you get what you want/need buddy...
I think Tamron does not make very good telephoto lenses.
I have owned a good number of Tamron telephoto lenses over the years. I primarily own Sony GM lenses both prime and telephoto for my A1 system these days. On average, the Tamron lenses are not up to my current generation GM lenses. They are more in line with the G lens line. However, when I travel and my main goal is size and convenience with broad coverage, and good IQ, I take my 17-28 and 28-200 Tamrons. I have never been disappointed in my results with that pair. In fact I have won competitions with images created with them.
The Tamrons have earned a place in my bag for a reason. To say that Tamron doesn't make good telephoto lenses is just not correct. In fact in my opinion they make the best super zoom telephoto lenses in the industry.
As a bonus they back that up with long warranty periods a superb customer service.
