Nikon z 28 400mm f 4 8 vr vs tamron 70 300mm f 4 5 6 3 di iii rxd?

The Nikon Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR is the one-lens-does-it-all choice. It starts at 28mm, reaches 400mm, and has stabilisation built into the lens. The Tamron 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III RXD is the lighter, cheaper telephoto. It has no stabilisation of its own, so it relies on the camera body, and it can't go wide at all.

If you want one lens for travel and mixed subjects, I'd pick the Nikon. If you mainly want reach for sport or animals and your camera has in-body stabilisation, the Tamron makes more sense. For more on reach, see Wildlife and sport.
