Tamron announce two new lenses

Tamron 70-200mm

Tamron has announced two new lenses to its range, the SP 90mm f/2.8 Di MACRO 1:1 VC USD (Model F004) for Canon, Nikon and Sony and SP 70-200mm f/2.8 Di VC USD (Model A009) for Canon, Nikon and Sony.

 

The SP 90mm:
Product features include;

*New optical design. The lens offers VC (Vibration Compensation) and USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive).
*Two XLD (Extra Low Dispersion) glasses and one LD (Low Dispersion) element reduce chromatic aberrations.
*Tamron’s newly developed eBAND (Extended Bandwidth & Angular-Dependency) Coating for antireflection performance—significantly reducing flare and ghosting.
*The VC (Vibration Compensation) image stabilisation mechanism to reduce camera shake.
*Features USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive) to power the AF drive together with a continuous manual focus mechanism.
*Incorporates IF (Internal Focus) system, which focuses by moving only the internal lens group, rather than the front lens elements. The overall length of the lens therefore does not change when focusing for a broad working distance.
*Moisture-resistant construction helps prevent moisture from penetrating the lens.

The SP 70-200mm:
Product features include;

*XLD (Extra Low Dispersion) glass in concert with four LD (Low Dispersion) elements should minimize chromatic aberrations.
*Tamron’s advanced multi-layer coating technology is said to improve lens performance by reducing flare and ghosting.
*The rounded diaphragm gives the photographer desired blur effects only achievable with a high-speed telephoto zoom lens.
*VC (Vibration Compensation) image stabilisation and USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive).
*Features USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive) to power the AF drive together with a continuous manual focus mechanism.
*The VC (Vibration Compensation) image stabilisation mechanism is said to reduce camera shake to deliver sharper images.
*Moisture-resistant construction helps prevent moisture from penetrating the lens.
