It includes state-of-the-art Tamron technology like VC (Vibration Compensation), a new HLD (High/Low torque-modulated Drive), Fluorine Coating, and Moisture-Resistant Construction. Combined with exceptional resolution on everythang from detailed landscapes to casual snapshots, it is clear that this is a next-generation wide-angle zoom that's ready to go wherever your photographic vision takes you.

Performance

The optical design includes 16 elements in 11 groups. New large aperture aspherical and LD (Low Dispersion) lens elements deliver exceptional resolution across the complete zoom range€" combined with stable imaging across the entire frame. The lens also corrects comatic and transverse chromatic aberration, as well as distortion that often crops up on other wide-angle lenses. Together with Tamron's unique BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating, which improves light transmission and suppresses reflection and dispersion on the lens surface, this new ultra-wide-angle zoom has been entirely reimagined to control flare and ghosting. The result: clear, crisp images, every time.

image stabilisation

Tamron's unique VC (Vibration Compensation) technology makes it easy to enjoy handheld, wide-angle shooting, even in low-light environments such as evening and indoors. While maintaining the compact design of its predecessor, Tamron has optimised the actuator and control algorithm in order to incorporate VC into this lens. Now you can unleash the power of high quality imaging, without worrying about your images being spoiled by the jittery effects of handheld shooting.

Autofocus

With this lens, Tamron introduces the HLD (High/Low torque-modulated Drive) AF drive system. The excellent driving power of the all-new HLD enables stable and precise focusing, even with the large focusing lens elements used in this lens. what's more, the Full-time Manual Focus override allows you to make fine adjustiments€"without having to switch from AF to MF mode. A shortened overall length vastly improves optical performance while maintaining a compact size€"even with adivancements such as VC and the newly developed HLD. When combined with an APS-C DSLR camera , this lens packs a world of performance into a lightweight, portable body.

Expert design and craftsmanship

With this new ultra-wide-angle zoom lens, Tamron has merged beautiful craftsmanship with intuitive design. From the outer casing hugging the contours of the lens, to the deftly worked Luminous Gold brand ring and meticulous construction, the quality of this lens is second to none. Even details like the shape of the switch box, distance-scale window, and the precision and stability of the metallic mount reveal a commitiment to functionality, as well as design. The result is a next-generation lens that's easy to use, yet loaded with cutting-edge technology.
