Tamron 55-200/4.0-5.6 Di II LD Macro MAF

This is a telephoto zoom for exclusive use on digital SLR cameras that covers the focal length range equivalent to 85-310mm when converted to a 35mm format. The lens allows owners of digital SLRs fitted with standard zoom lenses to enjoy the professional-looking “pulling” and “compression” effects particular to telephoto lenses with ease. Since the optical system is designed for exclusive use on digital cameras, the image circle is smaller, resulting in a compact package measuring 83.0mm, accepting a 52mm standard filter and weighing a mere 295 grams. For photographers who bought their digital SLR camera in a kit with a standard zoom lens but are dissatisfied with the telephoto capability of the standard lens, it offers a desirable telephoto zoom range at an affordable price as a second lens. The new tele-zoom will allow these photographers to enjoy the telephoto capabilities that yield dynamic telephoto shots. The lens is ideal for many photographic opportunities including sporting events, scenery and portraiture.

The perfect second lens for your digital camera.

The ideal solution for anyone who wants to capture truly dynamic telephoto images. This lens provides 300mm equivalent telephoto power (85-300mm when converted to 35mm film format). This lens goes far beyond the possibilities of a standard zoom.

An optimal lens for family, sporting events, still-life and portrait photography. The main motif of your picture is emphasized by sharp details in the foreground with a beautifully blurred background. It is perfect for capturing the happy faces of children as they play.

Excellent image results of unusual brilliance and sharpness, intimate details, beautifully rendered

This lens convinces through its super optical performance over the entire zoom range. Enjoy the great combination of telephoto and real macro photography in a single lens.
