The SP 150-600mm G2 (Generation
2) ultra-telephoto lens with upgraded optical performance enables
handheld shooting with remarkable definition. This new lens builds upon
the success of the current SP 150-600mm (Model A011) which Tamron first
introduced in December, 2013, including better overall optical
performance and faster AF speed, VC enhancements, plus Fluorine Coating,
FLEX ZOOM LOCK and tele converter.
Rebuilt from the ground up to meet Tamron’s strict quality standards
and design specifications, this new zoom combines smart engineering and
high performance with quality craftsmanship, durability and user
friendliness.
The SP 150-600mm G2 includes three LD (Low Dispersion) lens elements which completely eliminate axial and transverse chromatic aberrations. It also features upgraded optical construction (21 elements in 13 groups).
Anti-reflection technologies, eBAND (Extended Bandwidth & Angular-Dependency) Coating and BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating improve light transmission and suppress internal reflections, including light reflected off the camera’s image sensors. So even when taking a backlit or semi-backlit photograph, ghosting and flare caused by reflected light are fully eliminated.
Additional enhancements expand the lens’ versatility. For example,
MOD (Minimum Object Distance) has been reduced to 2.2m (86.6 in) so you
can enjoy tele-macro photography and dramatic bokeh.
The Model A022 is equipped with the USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive) ring-type motor that delivers excellent responsiveness and control. AF speed is significantly improved from current model, and it enables accurate high-speed focus even when capturing moving subjects.
When shooting with AF, the Full-time Manual Focus override allows you to instantly make fine focusing adjustments manually, without having to switch between modes.
The VC (Vibration Compensation) effectiveness is equivalent to 4.5 stops, based on image stabilization performance levels established by CIPA (Camera & Imaging Products Association) when using in
The improved VC minimizes blurring caused by slight camera movement, which is prevalent with long telephoto lenses and even more troublesome with higher-resolution cameras. VC enhances the freedom of hand-held shooting at slower shutter speeds required by low-light conditions such as dusk.
VC MODE 1 is the standard mode that strikes a great balance between the stability of the viewfinder image and the stabilization effects.
VC MODE 2 is exclusively used for panning.
VC MODE 3 prioritizes the stabilization of the captured images and forgoes the stabilization of the viewfinder image.
With the optional accessory TAMRON TAP-in Console™, you can custom the configuration of VC MODE 1. Choose the viewfinder view of either Standard or viewfinder image priority.
FLEX ZOOM LOCK mechanism quickly locks or unlocks the zoom at any position simply by sliding the zoom ring. Photographers can shoot from any angle without the zoom extending unintentionally. Additionally, the customary Zoom Lock switch prevents unwanted barrel extension during transportation
This design philosophy in pursuit of functional beauty with a
“Human Touch” is applied even to minute details for the SP 150-600mm G2
ultra-telephoto lens as well.
The design includes the front portion of the lens composed of
curved surfaces that comfortably fit in the palm of a photographer’s
hand, the focus ring and zoom ring with the groove width optimized to
improve user-friendliness, the focus limiter switch allowing for easy
operation, the easy-to-hold grip compatible with the Arca-Swiss type
quick release system, and other features. The lens hood with smooth
curves that fit the lens barrel has a design that allows for its easy
attachment and removal. While using metal as the exterior material and
adding numerous new functions such as the FLEX ZOOM LOCK mechanism, the
SP 150-600mm G2 achieves a size and weight making comfortable handheld
shooting possible, with a slim and stylish appearance design to top it
all off.
Reduce flare and ghosting with eBAND and BBAR
Two highly developed lens coating technologies, eBAND (Extended
Bandwidth & Angular-Dependency), which uses nanotechnology, and BBAR
(Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) combine to increase light transmission and
to reduce flare and ghosting to imperceptible levels. The lens delivers
high contrast, sharp and clear images.
For greater protection when shooting outdoors, leak-proof seals throughout the lens barrel help protect your equipment.
