For the duration of the promotion, there will be savings on these lenses applied by participating stockists at the checkout in the form of Voucher code offers.

In the Ultra-tele zoom category, the Tamron 150-600mm VC Di USD G2 has a cool £300 saving for both Canon and Nikon mounts, and the 150-500mm Di III VC USD enjoys a £100 saving in Fuji X or Sony FE fit.

Within the standard zoom category, purchasers of the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III VXD G2 can get a huge £150 voucher based saving and then there is a massive £180 saving for the Tamron 17-70mm Di III-A RXD for the Sony E and Fuji X mount.

The Best Fit For Each Audience

As regards which photographers and videographers will prove the perfect customers, when it comes to Tamron zoom lenses it’s all about versatility. That’s certainly the case with the 150-600mm VC DI USD G2 (right) in either Canon or Nikon fits, the focal range ensuring photographers will never be too far from their subject, whether it is a bird in flight, an aeroplane or a wild flower using Ultratele close up. Users can enjoy handheld shooting, thanks to the G2 version’s enhancements to AF speed and Vibration Compensation (VC), which, according to CIPA testing, is equivalent to 4.5 stops and enables shooting with slower shutter speeds. Moisture resistant construction also adds peace of mind when shooting outdoors to help protect your lens in case you get caught out in a shower. Additionally, a Flex Zoom Lock allows the zoom to be quickly locked or unlocked at any position, simply by sliding the zoom ring. This helps to maintain a particular zoom position so you’re framed and ready when the action happens. The lens itself weighs 2010g.

A lens to go ‘wild’ over: Canon and Nikon users will never be too far from a superb photograph thanks to Tamron’s 150-600mm ultra tele zoom offering

Until June 30th, save your customers up to £300 on four Tamron zooms: the 28-75mm G2, 17-70mm, 150-500mm

Next up, the 150-500m VC USD FE for Sony full frame models and the 150-500mm VC VXD (right) for the Fuji X mount both suggest a perfect balance between a high image quality and compact design. With a minimum focus distance of 0.6 metres and a maximum aperture of f/5-6.7, the lens in whichever fit is very comfortable and user friendly. Length is 209mm, maximum diameter is 93mm, weight is 1725g and minimum focus distance is 60cm. The ‘VC’ image stabilisation enables sharp and detailed results when shooting handheld. In fact a choice of three VC modes can be made to match the shooting conditions and user’s preferences. Lens construction is moisture resistant, while a linear motor suppresses drive noise and vibrations when focusing, thus making it ideal for both photos and video. Meanwhile, in the standard zoom category, the 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III VXD G2 (below) is described as a high-speed zoom lens delivering a creativity inspiring optical performance nothing less than ‘spectacular’. Marked improvements over the first generation of the lens are promised. Optical aberrations have been minimised thanks to the inclusion of LD (Low Dispersion) and GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) glass elements, with beautiful ‘bokeh’ effects achievable. Like other lenses in the line up, this zoom sees the AF drive equipped with Tamron’s VXD technology (Voicecoil eXtreme-torque Drive) to provide quick and accurate auto focus. The lens has a moisture resistant construction plus fluorine coating for extra protection. And with a close working distance of just 18cm at the wide-angle setting, highly detailed close-up shots are possible. Lastly as regards the current promotion, the properties of the light and compact 1770mm Di III-A RXD (right), available for crop sensor cameras in Sony E and Fuji X fits, include a minimum object distance of 19cm at the wide end and 39cm at the telephoto end – with the lens being devised to achieve a broad zoom range (equivalent to approximately 26-105mm in full frame format) and excellent image quality. As the model name suggests it is also equipped with Tamron’s RXD technology (Rapid eXtra-Silent Stepping Drive), promising to deliver high speed and accurate auto focus. Once again, the lens boasts a moisture resistant build, gains extra protection from a fluorine coating and is bolstered by including Tamron’s VC (Vibration Compensation) image stabilisation. Weight is a highly manageable 530g making it a great companion with a crop sensor Sony or Fuji body, in providing a nice extended standard focal range.
