Heavyweight performance in a lightweight lens
Mobility meets precision with the Model A035 ultra-telephoto lens
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 in-the-moment action clearly and easily. 3 LD (Low Dispersion) glass elements are used and effectively positioned to take away aberrations that are known to occur with telephoto lens. And Tamron's proprietary eBAND (Extended Bandwidth & Angular-Dependency) Coating prevents reflections giving you clearer more vivid images. With a lens barrel made primarily of magnesium at selected area the Model A035 is the lightest zoom in the ultra-telephoto category* making it ideal for handheld shooting over long periods of time. Plus Moisture-Resistant construction and a Fluorine Coating on the front element provide additional protection when shooting outdoors. * Among 100-400mm interchangeable lenses for 35mm full-frame DSLR cameras (as of October 2017: Tamron)
Product Description
Excellent AF performance meets enhanced VC
Precise AF tracking and VC (Vibration Compensation) are essential for ultra-telephoto lens performance. That's where Tamron's Dual MPU high-speed control system comes in. It features an MPU (micro-processing unit) with a built-in DSP (Digital Signal Processor) for superior signal processing plus a separate MPU dedicated exclusively to vibration compensation. With enhanced AF response speed and VC you can accurately shoot fast-moving subjects with stability and easeÑeven in low-light. Precise responsive AF performance A built-in DSP (Digital Signal Processor) on the MPU delivers highspeed processing of digital signals while ensuring excellent AF responsiveness. This improvement allows you to track subjects moving at high speeds even more accurately. The AF drive system also uses a USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive) motor for outstanding performance and fast precise focusing. Keep it steady with enhanced VC We've fine-tuned our original VC (Vibration Compensation) system with an enhanced control algorithm and an independent MPU dedicated to VC. Together they meet a CIPA image stabilisation performance level of 4 stops. While most ultra-telephoto lenses are prone to camera shake the Model A035 delivers excellent stability for reliable stress-free handheld shooting.
Optional tripod mount expands your shooting style
Using a tripod is as easy as shooting handheld with the Model A035. A thoughtfully designed grip makes it easy to handle. Plus Arca-Swiss release
