Quick thoughts, Sigma 150 to 500 versus Tamron 150-600

[kenerickson]

I had a question about the Sigma 150-500. Does the Sony mount model have OS built in the lens or do they delete it for the Sony mount like Tamron?

I just chatted with a sales person at B and H, says they still do not have a ship date for Tamron 150-600 lens for Sony. Also told me they have a large amount of backorders placed. Summer is short in Wi. and I think I will bite the bullet and buy the Sigma. Any thoughts?

Thanks for the input! Looks like a wait. One of the things that I am a bit concerned about , after reading some of the reviews on the Tamron is the amount of plastic used. Is it unrealistic to think a lens with this kind of price tag should be devoid of plastic?

yes.
