Update: I already have the latest firmware on my Tamron 16-300 but the focus is still hit and miss. I hope Tamron develops a better firmware for this lens.

Another update: So apparently my lens was defective and it was not the firmware that needs work. I sent it back to Tamron PH and they repaired the autofocus mechanism. Autofocus now works great but the jumpy video when zooming in and out is still there. I'll send it back for repair. Shout out to, Tamron Japan! They have been very helpful in fixing my concern.
