Tamron 35 100mm f 2 8 di iii vxd vs tamron 35 150mm f 2 2 8 di iii vxd?

Both are full frame zooms for Sony E and Nikon Z. Both autofocus, and neither is stabilised, so the choice comes down to reach and light.

I'd pick the Tamron 35-100mm f/2.8 Di III VXD for most people. It stays at f/2.8 across its whole range and weighs 565 grams, which makes it a sensible portrait and event lens.

The Tamron 35-150mm f/2-2.8 Di III VXD reaches further and opens wider at f/2, but it drops to f/2.8 as you zoom in. Choose it if you regularly need that extra reach at events or on a portrait shoot.

On APS-C, the 35-100 frames like 52-150mm and the 35-150 like 52-225mm. If crop factors are new to you, the focal length converter explains how they change the framing.
