Does the rear element (the one closest to the camera sensor) move during zooming and/or focusing?

The rear element on the 150-500mm does not move. If you are feeling any movement, it is most likely the VC element.

Hi. I thought this will be launched on 10th of June. Delayed? Any new dates?
Asked by: fairuz
According to Tamron's original press release, due to the current global health crisis, the release date or product supply schedule for the Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VXD Lens for Sony E could change. We have not received an updated shipping date for the 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VXD Lens, but do note that all pre-orders must be shipped before the lens will be listed in our inventory as "In Stock" for shipping or in-store pickup. As such, the fastest way to obtain the lens before it is listed as "In Stock" would be to place a pre-order for the lens, and once the lens starts arriving from the manufacturer, all pre-orders will be shipped in the order in which they were received.
