Tamron SP 70 300 4 5.6 Di VC USD Model A005 Tamron to announce the price of the SP 70 300mm F/4 5.6 Di VC USD  lens on July 29th
Tamron will announce the price of the new Tamron SP 70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di VC USD lens on July 29th, 2010 (+/- 1 day depending on your location). This lens was released back in March, 2010 (see full press release). The Tamron SP 70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di VC USD should feel a lot like the Nikon 70-300 (similar length and weight) and should have a very fast AF. This is a full frame lens.

    Nikon’s 70-300 with VR is already an excellent lens -considering that the aperture range is the same, if Tamron is looking to do well with this lens they need to hit an attractive pricepoint.

    This doesn’t deserve the “SP” moniker which is for “Special Performance”. I don’t see any thing about the lens that deserves “special performance”. They simply added image stabilizer and sonic drive. The optics probably the same as all the older variations of this lens, plus the aperture range is nothing to write home about.
