A telephoto zoom for everyone who 
treasures family memories
The new telephoto zoom from Tamron, designed 
exclusively for digital SLR cameras,* is ideal for any-
one who wants to capture truly dynamic telephoto 
images. It goes far beyond the capabilities of the 
standard zoom that comes with a digital SLR 
camera. Lightweight and compact, this zoom lens 
makes 300mm-equivalent telephoto power** accessible 
to everyone. Ideal for photos of family fun, sport events, 
scenery, and portraiture, the lens naturally creates a out-
of-focus background that emphasizes the main subject 
of your photo. It's perfect for capturing the happy faces 
of children as they play.
*With imagers 24mm x 16mm or smaller.
**This  lens is equivalent to 85-310mm zoom when converted to 
   35mm film format.
Exclusive design for digital cameras deliv-
ers quality you can count on
This lens provides outstanding optical perfor-
mance over the entire zoom range with a Low 
Dispersion glass element that minimizes on-axis 
and lateral chromatic aberrations, a critical factor in 
enhancing the optical quality of digital photogra-
phy. Designed exclusively for digital SLRs, it fea-
tures Tamron's latest advanced technologies, such 
as Internal Surface Coatings,* to suppress flare 
 
and ghosting and reduce the loss of peripheral light
