The Tamron 35-150mm f/2.8-4 Di VC OSD is a wide to medium telephoto zoom lens designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount cameras;
moreover, it works with DX models where it provides an equivalent
focal length range of 52.5 - 225mm. Ideal for a range of portraiture
shots, the flexible zoom features a bright f/2.8-4 maximum aperture
range that also suits working in a variety of lighting conditions and
improved depth of field control. Optically, the lens utilises a
combination of low dispersion (LD) glass elements and aspherical
elements to reduce colour fringing, saggital coma flare, and spherical
and chromatic aberrations for increased edge to edge sharpness,
clarity and colour accuracy throughout the zoom range.
The optics performance of this 35-150mm lens is complemented by an
Optimised Silent Drive (OSD) motor and a Dual Micro-Processing Unit
(MPU) system in the physical design to deliver an almost slient, quick
and accurate autofocusing performance. The lens also offers a minimum
focusing distance of 45mm through the entire zoom range for capturing
close-ups at any focal length. Application of Tamron's proprietary
anti-reflecting BBAR Coating on the glass elements significantly reduces
ghosting and flare that results from backlight conditions for a sharper
portrait. An integrated Vibration Compensation (VC) image
stabilisation in the lens design reduces the appearance of camera shake
to provide for sharper imagery captured by handheld shooting in dimmer
conditions. A flourine coating and moisture-resistant construction
works to protect your lens when working outdoors.
