From Amazon Birth of a lens exclusively for digital SLR cameras Designed specifically for digital SLR cameras, we have created an ultra-high magnification zoom lens that covers an angle of view almost equivalent to the focal length of a 35mm film lens from 28-300mm.
You can shoot most scenes with one lens without changing lenses.
In addition, if you combine it with the 11-18mm lens exclusively developed for digital SLR cameras, which was developed at the same time, you can enjoy a wide field of view from 17-300mm (converted to a 35mm film size).
Adopts many special glass materials and optical design that takes into consideration the characteristics of digital cameras.
Improving image quality and making it more compact Through the innovative use of XR (high refractive index) glass, we seek to optimize the overall optical power distribution, making it more compact and effectively correcting various aberrations.
In addition, it uses three compound aspherical lenses and two LD (specially low dispersion) lenses to effectively correct axial and lateral chromatic aberrations, which are major factors in improving digital image quality, and provides excellent depiction as a general-purpose zoom lens. achieved performance
An optimal optical design for digital single-lens reflex cameras that takes into account the angle of light that enters the image sensor.The angle of light that enters the image sensor from the center of the screen to the periphery is kept within a certain range, taking into account the effects of aberration fluctuations due to zoom. Adopts an optical design that takes into account the
Suppressing the decline in peripheral light intensity Compared to lenses designed for conventional film cameras, this lens suppresses the decline in peripheral light intensity and achieves uniform depiction from the center to the periphery of the screen.
Achieves high resolution performance As a lens exclusively for digital single-lens reflex cameras, it achieves high resolution performance, high contrast performance, and excellent image quality with flatness, making it suitable for a variety of shooting situations.
Active use of internal surface coating to thoroughly prevent ghosting and flare. Adoption of a newly developed multi-coating to suppress image quality degradation caused by light reflection from the front surface of the lens and the effects of the image sensor. and internal surface coating (multi-coating on the lens bonding surface).
Achieves the shortest shooting distance of 0.45m
Maximum imaging magnification 1:3.7 The minimum imaging distance of the conventional 28-300mm lens has been further shortened to 0.45m.
The maximum magnification on the 200mm side is 1:3.7, allowing you to easily enjoy close-up photography.
Mechanical innovation has achieved a lightweight and compact design with high magnification. Mechanical innovation has allowed a complex structure to be housed in a compact body, achieving excellent portability and operability as a general-purpose zoom lens.
In terms of production, in order to commercialize the ``AF18-200mmF/3.5-6.3XR DiIILDAspherical[IF]MACRO'', which has a complex structure, we are working to innovate manufacturing technology, such as increasing the precision, weight, and strength of parts. There is
Equipped with a zoom lock mechanism that is convenient to carry Equipped with a ``zoom lock mechanism'' that prevents the camera from falling due to its own weight when carrying it.
A flower-shaped hood with excellent light-blocking properties is standard equipment.In order to achieve clear and sharp rendering performance, the flower-shaped hood effectively cuts harmful rays coming from outside the viewing angle with an effective shape suitable for the square frame of the screen. Equipped with a hood as standard
Adopts a design that matches the new digital generation lens, expressing the "high performance and high precision" of the "DiII" series. Adopts a gold-colored ring for the ring part, which is a key point in the design.
Improved visibility and design for the "DiII" lens series
New rubber pattern adopted for zoom/focus ring
Consideration has been given to the sense of unity and operation when attached to the camera.

Depending on the size of the image sensor, you can use the 28-300mm angle of view that is popular in full-frame format to go from a wide-angle equivalent to 28mm to a super telephoto equivalent to 300mm, even when attached to a digital SLR camera that is difficult to achieve a wide-angle. Made it possible to take pictures
This is Tamron's proud product of high magnification zoom lens.
As proof of this, we received the prestigious ``TIPA Consumer Lens of the Year 2005 in Europe'' award.
Designer's comment Developed as Tamron's first lens exclusively for digital SLR cameras (APS-C size)
An easy-to-use high-magnification zoom lens equivalent to 28-300mm when converted to a 35mm angle of view.
While maintaining the luxury of the existing full-frame format 28-300mm, the design differentiates itself as a digital-only camera.Comments from the judges: High magnification with a focal length of 18-200mm, which is attractive for a digital single-lens reflex camera. As a zoom lens, it was praised for its lightweight, compact, and highly accurate design.
