I recently reported that Tamron will be releasing a new zoom lens. I received a tip that the new lens will be a 28-180mm f/2.8 Di III VC VXD. The official announcement is expected in mid-September. The new lens will be targeted at users who need a larger zoom range than the current Tamron 35-150mm f/2-2.8 lens, and offers better resolution performance at the telephoto end. Stay tuned for additional details.
