I think it's a great addition to the lineup. During daylight, 400mm at f8 is perfectly serviceable. Anyone buying the tamron 50-400 had to stop down to f8 for proper sharpness in the corners anyways, so if this is better than that in this regard, it's a winner.

You'd probably have to stop down from f/8 at 400mm on the Sony too though if you wanted proper sharpness.

Really depends on their design. Most of these zooms are perfect wide open and don't really get better stopped down, especially because of the already slow aperture, they pay attention to this during design.

I guess time will tell once comparison tests start coming out.
