EISA MIRRORLESS STANDARD ZOOM LENS 2018-2019
28-75mm F/2.8 Di III RXD (Model A036)This Tamron is a high-speed standard zoom designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras.
Compact and lightweight at just 550g, it is an excellent fit for small cameras such as the Sony α7 family. It is designed to produce enough detail for the newest high-resolution sensors, while the large aperture makes it easy to throw the background out of focus with a beautiful ‘bokeh’ effect. The fast, quiet autofocus motor is capable of keeping moving subjects in focus. Overall this lens provides very good performance at a highly competitive price. -
EISA DSLR TELEZOOM LENS 2018-2019
70-210mm F/4 Di VC USD (Model A034)Tamron’s latest telephoto zoom combines high-quality optics with a constant F/4 maximum aperture, fast and silent autofocus, and optical stabilisation, all at a fraction of the cost of equivalent lenses. It delivers impressively sharp images with minimal aberrations, along with attractive background blur. Relatively lightweight, its moisture-resistant construction should also appeal to photographers who regularly shoot outdoors. Providing a very attractive balance between image quality, robustness and portability, it’s a great choice for enthusiast photographers.
