The Tamron 100-400mm F/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD (Model A035) is a highly portable,
ultra-telephoto zoom lens with AF precision for shooting instantaneous movement
with the utmost clarity. With this effectively positioned, extraordinary glass LD (Low
Dispersion) lens, aberrations typical with many telephoto lenses are a thing of the
past. Tamron's proprietary eBAND (Extended Bandwidth & Angular-Dependency)
Coating suppresses reflections, yielding vivid images of amazing clarity. And thanks
to a lens barrel made primarily of magnesium, the A035 boasts the lightest weight
in its class*, making it ideal for handheld shooting over long periods of time. With
a MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 1.5m and a maximum image magnification
ratio of 1:3.6, the A035 lets you soften the foreground or background to dramatically
emphasize your subject at close range. Moisture-Resistant Construction and a fluorinecoated
front element provide additional protection when shooting outdoors.
