- Can the new Tamron 18-300mm f3.5-6.3 compete with the Fuji 70-300mm f4-5.6 for wildlife video? We'll test the image quality at the same focal lengths, who has better stabilization? Autofocus, sharpness etc. Testing on the Fuji XT4.

I’m loving you social commentary and sense of humor. Keep up the great work!
That was a great review! I like that you touched on how the flaws may be subjective depending on what you're using the lens for.
Thank you!!! Finally someone finally did a review that gave us real answers!!! I was looking for a longer lens. Than the 55-200 .. and the Fuji always locked on so amazingly.. your the first one that actually talked about how it compares on the long end ..You rule!!
Try the Fuji 70-300 with the 1.4 TC too. It’s a lot slower, but for its size is a magic alternative to the 100-400.
great idea, thank you!
My understanding is you get much better images just cropping.
Now you can just buy a new Fuji camera with 40mp sensor and you will get the same result with cropping. Maybe even better
I got Fuji 70-300 and its a briliant piece of glass. Always sharp, fast and reliable. I am love it !
Well done. Thanks for this review, I was just wondering which lens would be better as a photographer and you helped me make my decision. I like the all in one of the 18-300 for my full spectrum xt4.
In your very particular way of presenting the content, I liked it and I probably go for Fujinon 70-300. Thanks, man!!!
I've watched 1 million of your video's and this is the first one I've fully understood and fully agreed with - even the pizza for dinner.
Thanks for dummying it down for me.
I will now watch your next 1 million videos and will once again pretend I know what u r talking about.

Camera conspiracies: Fuji 70 - 300 the best vlogging lens ?
😂 don’t change
Great review, and a funny one at that. Loved it!😄
The most requested lens comparison of this time!
That is absolutely woeful focus speed and stabilization, but impressive sharpness for that range. Looks like a great all in one lens for static shots though.
The Tamron? Yes
You have such a unique sense of humour (+ the fuji love); another great video :)
My first time watching a camera conspiracies video, subbed halfway through! Loved this style.
Sony should feel alright about this. Tamron was the unstable one in the relationship after all 😂
Underrated comment
Love your content. Not a lot of people can blend humor and technical details. You are unique. Thanks for the information and also for making me laugh. "Tamron/Tampon" 😭
This was the best review!!! 😊😊😊
Best review so far
Love the new music
In Canada, we have octangular stop lights - not green/amber/red lights, just like a reflective octangular placard with the word STOP on it.
Funny as ever and a great camera gear video. Very cool analysis. 👍
With a gimbal do you think the tamron would be tolerable?? Or does sigma have some magic glass that I should
Take a look at in the same ball park as far as zoom range, sharpness, and overall quality.
I love this review. Made me laugh a bunch of times throughout. Great comparison. I'm trying to decide between the 2 and I'm going with the Fujifilm.
Never thought i'd have this fun watching a review video ahaha awsome vid btw
Just a question, photography wise, specially with surf photography, do they both have the same zoom/range or whatevers the right word for it at 300mm?
I have the nikon Z50, and am looking for a better lens for wildlife than the 50-250 dx. I'm considering the 24-200, which would be a 36-300mm equivalent. I feel like the little bit of extra versatility at both ends would mean I wouldn't be needing to switch lenses as much for wider shots, and have a little more reach on the long end which would be nice for just carrying one lens when hiking. The only thing I can't decide is if I'd rather just go straight for a dedicated lens for wildlife in the same price range like the tamron 100-400, which should be a 150-600 equivalent. Wouldn't be as good for hiking, but I'll probably end up with both, so it's just a matter of which I would pick up first.
Looking at it from an a7 IV perspective, the Tamron 18-300mm could be a perfect lens with crop mode that is already with in 4K@60fps.
The rare video sample of Fuji 70-300mm. Thanks.
I love your videos :D
Tamron- did something changed with AF or stabilization after any firmware update?
Just tested the Tamron 18-300 E-mount for Sony ZV-E1 on Dynamic Active Stability with 1.1 X Digital Zoom. Works amazing! Super stable even with walking. The crop is perfect with no vignette. This would be my all in one set-up and I don't have to worry about low light since the ZV-E1 is great at that.
Is this some kind of Fuji cripple hammer happening here? Because on Sony version of Tamron 18-300 stabilization works just fine.
I'm going to like all the videos you do where you prefer Fuji 🙂
An injury to camera conspiracies!
Dude your so funny :D Thank you for doing this for us
Tamaron 18-300mm or XC 50-230mm ois 2 which lens produce better image quality?
Is there a flat low light winter Canada 🇨🇦 lens?
I love the 70-300,very nice and good lense:)
The Fuji is made with gold and platinum nanotubes. Every shiny surface in each image looks slightly metallic and therefore more beautiful
Exposure jumps, jitter, change of white balance mid-shot (2:45)... I felt transported to a different era, when CC knew nothing and we learned nothing...
Are you sure that there isn't some switch to enable stabilization on the Tamron lens? I cannot imagine it being any worse with it off!!!!!
It's fighting the IBIS or something. No switch.
@@cameraconspiracies -- Not familiar with Fuji menus (G85 owner here!), is there a way to disable one or both through the menus?
@@aengusmacnaughton1375 No, it's none or both.
@@cameraconspiracies Darn! G85 Wins Again!!! 🙂
@@cameraconspiracies Isn’t there any settings in the Fuji body like non compatible lenses to switch off the IBIS.
Fuji definitely looks better to me, not sure it is worth giving up 18-69 focal length though
Did you get a pre production model? The B&H link says it's coming soon.
Let's hope.
Why get an 18-300 on an interchangeable lens camera in the first place?
The Fuj! 😂 that made me crack up for some reason. Great video. I just got this lens today after a six month wait.
And what is your personal impression after 4 weeks?
I found the stabilization to be horrible as well, until I switched IS mode to "continuous" from "shooting only". Great lens after that (although I'm a stills photographer so can't comment on video).
I should clarify that I meant in camera IS (X-T4).
4:04 me every time I'm out taking photos
I have the 70-300 and I like it. The stabilization is one of my favorite things about it but there are a few annoyances. It is soft. You can't really crop any photos. Also no ois switch on the lens and you catastrophically lose focus when you zoom. The size/weight/range of the thing is awesome tho...
Would you take the 100 to 400 instead.. Despite its size, weight etc?
Soft? What do you mean by soft. How sharp do you want your lenses to be?
I've seen it compared to the 100-400 and it was equally sharp. Also, I've looked at the Tamron back to back with Fuji and it is a lot softer.
@@PS-nv2qpWell, sharper than what it is, you lunk.
I'm a Canon shooter but your channel makes me want to learn about why I'm a canon shooter.
lol nice review ! yeah a little disapointed .. I think we all ( Fuji users ) hope that this lens will change everything... as you said this is they first x-mount so not bad for a first time ;p
When will they make 28 75 for fuji
I'm going to describe the magic feel to the fuji lens: Low contrast, slight green blue tint that looks cyan.
Really want the fuji 70-300mm! But it's out of stock everywhere 😰
So how does a Panny Boy with a 14-150mm perform in comparison :-)
"Oh the cinematic journey..." Hahahahahaha
The Fuji X-T4 has IBIS. wouldn’t the results be the same if stabilization is independent of the lens? I’m probably lacking some knowledge on this, but it seems like if the body is doing the work, the lens OIS would just confuse things..
Definitely helped me make my mind up! Broski you don't have a "Thanks" button so I can buy you a coffee for your ridiculous efforts in the cold!
Man, if half the TH-camrs were not taking themselves as seriously as you do, TH-cam reviews would be a lot more fun to watch!
Thanks for the comparison. I definitely don't want the 18-300mm anymore, for now.
Hmm, should I wait for Tamron to bring their 17-70 2.8 to X-Mount, wait to see what Sigma might make, or pick up a used Fuji 16-55 2.8? Currently have the Fuji 16-80mm and 16mm 2.8 for video.
Why would you get the 1655 if you have the 1680?
@@kitbentley3809 I'd replace the 16 2.8 and 16-80 with it...
Haha, very funny review, made me laugh - and getting the information which I should buy - thank's
I sold my fuji 50-140 and I'll be buying the 70-300 once they start showing up on the used market.
Why on earth would you sell the 50-140 ? I'm just curious, because this is a dream lens for me. Maybe it didn't fit your usage ? Else, what were the issues you had with it ?
@@robin14441 it's an absolutely fabulous lens, but I was never going to shoot professional events, or portraits with it, and it was far too heavy to lug around as a landscape lens. I also probably only used it 3-4 times in the 2 years I owned it. I bought it for $1500, and sold it for $1300, so at least it's somewhat affordable on the used market.
I used the money to buy an x100v, which I'm thrilled about.
Exactly at 8:15 a blue car is passing by in the background simultaneously to both split screens.
For someone who sold the X-T4 you sure do borrow it alot fr subsequent vids LOL. Good Stuff 😆
Lol love the humour mixed into a grear video.
Dude; You are a Hoot!
I have eye and brain wobble from watching that Tamron 😵💫
Wait, did I hear you say the word "beautiful" and "Fuji" in the same sentence? I do love the 70-300 on my X-T4.
i love my 70-300.
After use the Olympus ibis..., no return my friend.
This Tamron is going to make all other zooms obsolete. This is the only lens anyone ever needs.
Did you actually watch the comparison?
Are your shirts S or XS?
I think the stabe issues are the biggest reason not to buy the Tamron. If you only shot photos, or shot on a tripod, I'd consider it. But that shakiness renders it useless for video. Maybe it could work with IBIS, DIS and BOOST!?
Nice image, stab and focus so so
You actually go out and take pictures, unlike people who sit in their room to do telephoto zoom lens review.
Nice review! As a videographer, maybe it's time to shift to the Sony ecosystem. Vastly superior auto-focus in the a6700, very good built-in image stabilization, and the newest sensor works great with the speed limitations of the Tamron. You will appreciate Sony's advantages as their auto-focus takes a back seat to no-one. One TH-camr posted a great comparison between the Tamron and the Sony G 70-350mm equivalent, and the Tamron proves to be quite compelling, particularly given its versatility.
Harsh Polish winter prohibits me from getting out with my Tamron. It may freeze to death
Toneh balls. Looks like the background of credits in a '70's movie. Or it's a condition of not 'releasing the shutter'.
Canada Mounted Police 4:26?
Me: Oh there's a used Tamron 18-300mm X Mount in the marketplace
Watched your video.
Me: Ok i'll pass.
Exactly my thoughts...
So the 18-300mm is awesome as long as you have a body with IBIS.
How do you figure? This was with IBIS and it sucked.
My god, these videos are so funny
Manual focus - which is sharper? Er, the one you nailed focus on? 🤦🏼♂️
Hi Casey, thanks for being in the forefront of reviewing gear we will never buy. I am doing a summer trip with my college friends to Greece, and I will be making a video documenting the whole thing. I will be taking my iPhone 12 with a phone gimbal to do the vlogging portion. And to capture the cinema I will be taking my gh5 with the lumix 12-35mm f/2.8, lumix 35-100mm f/4-5.6, and a sigma 30mm f/1.4 for toneh. I have a budget of give or take $500 (American) to add either an action cam or a small drone that I can carry with me on a daily basis. Should I buy the drone and use our phones as action cams for the water related stuff, or should I place my budget on a decent drone? If you recommend the action cam, considering we want it for water related stuff, should I get the dji action cam or the go pro hero 10? Last thing, if you were to do the same trip with your friends, what camera and lenses would you take?
Please give me your American affiliate links for the reccomended products
It may be have to be optimized being a third party lens
Is that what you call a stoplights? Interesting…
Ouf!
Let me know when you find out why Grimace is hanging out with green hat 🤔
I thought you hated the XT4, I'm so confused.
@@ThomasGTV I believe he sold the flat earth Santa gifted one, and regretted it. Then borrowed this camera body from a friend.
"Looks like it's pizza tonight." That's what she said. No, really -- that *is* what she said!!!!
No pretending reviews 👍👍👍
I have the Sony E mount version of that lens and it NEVER loses focus like that.
yeah 3rd party lens on Fuji X mount sucks
@@JetBen555 Viltrox 56mm works pretty good for me
@@anil509 not for video auto focus
Did you forget to turn the stabilization on?? LOL
Tamron has good quality glass but not if you need IS. My full frame 150-600 G2 was OK for stills with Canon cameras (both DSLR and mirrorless) but unusable for video, just like yours. The native Canon RF 100-500 is so much more stable it's not funny. It's also sharper, which it better be for $2800 USD.
I'll never buy Tamron again. Not that they make anything for RF. If Sigma make anything for Fuji, I'd like to see how that looks.
I'm with you on the Tamron boycott lol.
The stabilization in my 24-70 g2 from Tamron is fantastic. I've never used a 150-600 but I imagine that focal length really isn't meant for handheld shooting regardless of brand
Fuji if you want 300mm, the color was better too.
You seem very concerned with the stab, which is understandable since you shoot hand held, and in your last video advised against using a gimbal. Which also makes sense. Had you wanted to use a gimbal, you never would've gotten those immediate, split second, once in a lifetime shots of those elusive fast moving stop signs!
Sony owns part of Tamron, Sony gets paid no matter what.
whihc one of these is better for vlogging (cinematic look)
Can someone lead me on buying fuji or tamron. I am looking for best stable one for recording outdoor landscape and animal videoes when I use handheld
Then you know not to get Tamron after watching this video.
Glass wrecks light coherency... it's a jugglng act between as few elements as possible and good optical chatacteristics. A good rule of thumb is lower element count is better. I could go into the why.. but just check the element count on your beloved zeiss :)
The tamron is a better choice for traveling. Because you can vlog with it, and take photos with it. The Fuji is more of a professional lens I think. I could be wrong, but anyone could be wrong. It’s about are you wrong? Does that make sense? Was that your question? 😂 I enjoyed the review. Hope you read my comment.
Fuji stabilization kills the Tamron. Like the colors of the Fuji a little better.
