Few days ago I reported that Tamron will be announcing a new super telephoto zoom lens on November 7th. Here is the first picture of the upcoming 150-500mm f/5-6.3 VC lens that will have a completely new optical formula, wider zoom range and VC. This new lens will replace the current 200-500mm f/5-6.3 model. Tamron have already filed a patent for […]
The rumored new Tamron lens that will be announced on November 7th will be a replacement for the current 200-500mm f/5-6.3 ($949). Next week Tamron will only announce the development of the lens, the official release and the pricing will revealed in 2014 (probably in Q4). The new lens will have an increased zoom range (150-500mm?) […]
Tamron is rumored to announce a new tele lens next week, most likely on November 7th. Most likely it will be the previously rumored 16-300mm lens for APS-C DSLR cameras. Update: here is a teaser found on a Polish forum – this will be a serious lens (not the 16-300mm):
Those are the latest rebates from Nikon, Fuji, Sony, Canon, Sigma and Tamron for September 2013:
Tamron is rumored to announce a new 16-300mm lens for APS-C based DSLR cameras by the end of the year. This is a logical step after Nikon announced their Nikkor AF-S 18-300mm f/3.5-5.6G DX last year. Tamron currently has a 18-270mm f/3.5-6.3 lens in their lineup.
Two new macro lens patents: Tamron 90mm f/2.8 and Sigma 180mm f/2.8. Another patent shows Tamron is also working on a 45mm f/2.8 Macro VC lens for Four Thirds cameras and another 60mm f/2.8 Macro VC lens for APS-C cameras. Olympus patented a 3D lens adapter that will achieve 3D effects with a regular camera and lens.
The Nikon rebates will be renewed next month, but many of the high-end lenses will not be included (end June 29th). The current Fujifilm rebates will not be extended (end June 29th). Those Canon savings will expire on July 6th. Sony’s offers are valid till June 29th. Tamron lens savings are set to expire on June 30th. […]
Tamron’s latest patent is for a 135mm f/2.8 lens for APS-C based cameras (202.5mm equivalent). Canon filed patents for several different lenses: 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 85mm f/1.2 85mm f/1.8 135mm f/2 50mm f/1.4 Olympus filed a patent for a 40-200mm f/4 Micro Four Thirds lens.
Here is a list of all ongoing rebates and instant savings offered by the major camera and lens manufacturers:
Tamron filed a patent in Japan (2013-83783) for a 35mm f/1.4 APS-C mirrorless lens (50mm equivalent in full frame). Few months ago the company also filed a patent for a new 50mm f/1.8 APS-C lens. Currently Tamron has only two zoom lenses for mirrorless cameras: 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 Di III VC for Sony E mount and 14-150mm F/3.5-5.8 Di III […]
