| | | Tamron SP AF 10-24mm f / 3.5-4.5 DI II Zoom Lens For Sony DSLR Cameras | | | | Wider and longer than others in its class, this compact, lightweight, high-performance lens for DSLRs with APS-C size sensors provides 35mm equivalent coverage from 16mm ultra-wide to 37mm semi-wide, a remarkable 2.4X zoom ratio. With a maximum coverage of over 108°, this state-of-the-art classic is the perfect solution for expanding your visual horizons. | | | | Tamron was first to offer the 10-24mm ultra wide-angle 2.4X zoom perspective for digital SLRs, successfully resolving numerous optical engineering challenges. Rendering picture angles approximating 16 to 37mm in the 35mm (film) or full-frame DSLR formats, landscapes, streetscapes, architecture and confining interiors come to life beautifully. Images exhibit negligible distortion in normal use, but—if the photographer chooses—spectacular effects can be introduced by disregarding the camera's relationship to level. | | | | Di-II lenses are performance-engineered expressly for digital SLR cameras with image sensors commonly referred to as APS-C, measuring approximately 24mm x 16mm. | | | | | Captures Ideal Range of Focal Lengths With D-SLRs | Since the size of 35mm film format is larger than the image sensor generally used in D-SLRs, a digital camera captures a narrower angle of view than a 35mm film camera even at the same focal length settings. This lens, made exclusively for digital SLR cameras, provides ideal focal lengths to cover the range desired by DSLR shooters. | | | Fits Smaller-Size Imagers | This lens is designed so the size of the lens' image circle matches that of smaller-size image sensors. In the compact design, it is almost comparable to a lens offering the same angles of view in 35mm film format. 1 | | | Aspherical Lens Elements | The optical system within this zoom lens uses three large-aperture glass-molded aspherical lenses, as well as three hybrid aspherical lenses, which minimize spherical aberrations, coma, and distortion. | | | Minimum Focusing Distance Across Zoom Range | The close focusing capability of this lens enables the capturing images with an exaggerated perspective at the 10mm ultra wide-angle end or shoot with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:5 at the 24mm semi-wide-angle setting with the freedom to create close-ups at the minimum focusing distance of 0.24m throughout the zoom range. |
