The award-winning Tamron 50-to-400mm Telephoto Zoom Lens.

Tamron’s ultra-versatile 50-to-400mm zoom lens has received the TIPA 2023 Award for the “Best Telephoto Zoom Lens” by the Technical Image Press Association (TIPA). This prestigious award also marks 10 consecutive years that Tamron has been honored with TIPA Awards for their quality camera lenses. This exceptional 50-to-400mm zoom lens provides magnification for birders that need high magnification, as well as close range photo chances – without changing lenses.

An excerpt from the Award Citation from the TIPA Jury: The Tamron 50-to-400mm zoom lens is an ideal choice for a wide range of photographic applications, thanks to its close focusing distance of 10 inches at the 50mm setting. Whether you are photographing birds, other wildlife, sports, portraits, or landscapes, this lens is compact and easy to transport, with an overall length of only 7¼ inches. To ensure sharp and stable photos, the lens features a VXD linear focusing mechanism and a vibration compensation system (VC) that helps reduce camera shake in low light conditions, when photographing at higher magnifications, or at slower shutter speeds. This allows you to take advantage of a wider range of photo opportunities, even in challenging lighting conditions. In addition to its still photography capabilities, the Tamron 50-to-400mm lens can also be used to take videos when combined with the Tamron Lens Utility.
