Tamron has announced the development of a 70-300mm f/4-5.6 zoom lens featuring image stabilization and an ultrasonic auto-focus drive. The SP 70-300mm F4-5.6 Di VC USD is the company's first lens to feature its latest Ultrasonic Silent Drive (USD) autofocus motor, with full-time manual focus override. The optical design includes an element made from Extra-Low Dispersion (XLD) glass, said to have optical properties similar to fluorite. Designed for both full-frame and APS-C digital SLRs, the lens will be initially available in Nikon mount followed by Canon and Sony versions.




Extra Low Dispersion


XLD


XLD


This lens' advanced optical design employs a sophisticated XLD (Extra Low Dispersion) lens element made from specialized high-grade glass that has lower dispersive properties than standard LD lenses (where refraction causes the dispersion of white light into spectral hues).

The dispersive properties of the XLD lens are at a level similar to fluorite, and in combination with LD elements make for an optimal optical design that delivers best in class resolution with advanced axial chromatic and magnification aberration correction - major inhibitors of image quality enhancement. The result is a lens that delivers sharp contrast and better descriptive performance throughout the entire zoom range.




Ultrasonic Silent Drive


USD


USD


The SP 70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di VC USD is the first to boast Tamron's new USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive).

USD is Tamron's latest autofocus motor technology, converting ultrasonic waves into torque to quietly deliver a new level of focusing precision and speed. Because it's still built on a rotor its full time manual focus is as easy as ever; allowing the photographer smooth manual focusing without having to fumble with a switch.

With advanced motor technology and newly developed software, Tamron's USD delivers a practical, precise, noiseless photographic experience at turbo speed. For those dynamic sports shots, moving
vehicles, or fast moving subjects, there has never been a better option.




Vibration Compensation

The actuator and algorithms, developed in-house at Tamron, provide the power that gives VC (Vibration Compensation) it's excellent tracking performance and smooth, stable viewfinder image.

Tamron's VC mechanism employs a three-coil system, whereby the three driving coils activate the shake-compensating VC lens groups electromagnetically via three steel balls.

The VC lens elements are held in place only by contact with the steel balls,achieving s
