Tamron Contemplates Introducing Lenses with Dedicated Aperture Ring

Tamron opened up to the possibility of launching lenses with dedicated aperture ring.

We believe that whether or not to add the aperture ring depends on the concept of each lens and the target audience. So far, we have favored compactness and lightness. But we would like to consider adding one for users who need an aperture ring. It is therefore possible that we will develop this type of lenses in the future.

That would be just awesome!!! Go ahead Tamron!

And one comment about APS-C lenses:

We believe that the market size of APS-C lenses is always the same [as back in the times of DSLRs], at least for the second lens [note: second lens in the sense of lens that people buy after they got the camera with the kit lens].

Tamron Will Launch Six Lenses in 2024, and here are the Three Patented Tamron APS-C lenses

Tamron has shared its financial result. In there, they write that they will launch six new lenses in 2024, as highlighted by SonyAlphaRumors.

And in future they might even launch 7 lenses a year.

Of course Tamron covers many mounts, so don’t expect all these lenses to come for Fujifilm.

But there are some dedicated APS-C lenses that Tamron has patented and I will share down below for you.

Feel free to let us know your favourite of the three.

[google translated] A mirrorless ultra-telephoto zoom lens with an amazingly compact design

The 150-500mm F/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD (Model A057) is an extremely compact and high-quality Sony E-mount and Fujifilm X-mount that overturns the conventional ultra-telephoto zoom common sense. It’s Inns. Covers focal length 150-500mm (equivalent to 35mm equivalent to 225-750mm)*1. You can easily perform ultra-telephoto shooting by miniaturizing while achieving the telephoto end of 500mm. We are also particular about image quality, and special glass materials such as composite aspherical lenses thoroughly suppress the occurrence of various aberrations. It is also equipped with a high-speed and high-precision linear motor focus mechanism VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) and image stabilization mechanism VC (Vibration Compensation). You won’t miss any moment. In addition, in addition to achieving a shortest shooting distance of 0.6m at the wide angle end, we have also improved usability by adopting a tripod seat with a strap hole, a simple splash-proof structure that supports outdoor shooting, and a antifouling coat. From landscapes to sports and wild animals, you can freely aim for the one you want to take. Please enjoy the powerful world of super telephoto.

Focal length when using a camera with a 35mm full-size sensor: 150-500mm
