Tamron announced the development of their 60th Anniversary lens, the SP AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di VC USD (Model A005).
The 70-300mm f/4-5.6 telephoto zoom lens features image stabilization VC (Vibration Compensation), an ultrasonic auto-focus drive USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive), an LD (Low Dispersion) and an XLD (Extra Low Dispersion) lens element made from specialized materials that prevent chromatic aberration, the crossover from auto-focus to manual focus by simply adjusting the focus ring, allowing the photographer to make adjustments on the fly, new BBAR (Broad-Band Anti Reflection) multilayer coatings that reduce reflection into the lens elements, and a flower-shaped hood that has been designed specifically to block out damaging light rays.
The Tamron SP AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di VC USD telephoto zoom lens has been produced first for the Nikon mount, with the development of compatible mounts for Canon and Sony to follow.
