Features with aesthetic appeal and functionality
1. Zoom ring, focus ring
Improved grip texture and smoother overall operability.
Grip texture has been improved by redesigning the striped pattern on the rubber focusing and zoom rings. Certain internal parts have also been enhanced. These advancements result in smoother overall operability. TAMRON has also adjusted the stiffness and torque of the zoom ring to facilitate smoother and more precise operation.
2. New sculpted shape
Improved design gives the lens a contoured profile that makes it easier to grip. This creates a comfortable, uneven shape that fits snugly and naturally in the hand.
The diameters of the zoom ring and focus ring have been enlarged, and the body areas around them have been slimmed down to give the lens a contoured profile that makes it easier to grip. This creates a comfortable, uneven shape that fits snugly and naturally in the hand.
3. Exterior has deep, luxurious black finish
Shiny and much glossier black. Improved abrasion resistance makes the lens harder to scratch and resists fingerprints.
The surface of the lens exterior is shiny black, much glossier than previous models (Since the Model A063 and A058). Improved abrasion resistance makes the lens harder to scratch and resists fingerprints.
4. Switch box, Focus Set Button
The unobtrusive, contoured design that smoothly guides the fingers intuitively.
The recessed switch box and Focus Set Button have an unobtrusive, contoured design that smoothly guides the fingers intuitively. The sloped bevel around the slide switch draws your finger naturally to the right position. To prevent accidental operation, the switches have a low profile. Taken altogether, these enhancements provide a more comfortable user experience.
