The A034 has three LD (Low Dispersion) lens elements to correct chromatic aberrations while shooting for clear, crisp images to the edges of the frame. You will also enjoy ultra-soft “bokeh” when shooting up close. Lightweight and compact, this telephoto zoom is ideal for travel.

Excellent AF and reliable VC (Vibration Compensation) performance

The A034 lens includes Tamron’s Dual MPU system: a dedicated MPU (micro-processing unit) for vibration compensation and another for lens system control, including AF. Each MPU has a DSP (Digital Signal Processing) block for high signal processing that balances reliable vibration compensation with exceptional AF performance. Tamron’s proprietary VC image stabilization features 4-stops**. The USD (Ultrasonic Silent Dive) ring-type motor provides excellent response and control for advanced high-speed focusing. Additionally, a full-time manual focus override lets you make fine manual adjustments without having to switch focus modes.

** CIPA Standard Compliant. For Canon: EOS-5D MKIII is used; for Nikon: D810 is used.

Internal zoom combines reliability with stability

An internal zoom mechanism maintains your center of gravity while shooting for more stable performance. Combined with Moisture-Resistant Construction, the internal zoom creates a more comfortable all-around shooting experience. Also, since the total length of the barrel never changes while zooming, you can easily shoot through obstructions such as a wire fence at a zoo.
