The Tamron SP series lenses feature high pixel density drive for advanced camera systems. The SP AF 35mm F1.8 DI VC USD’s built-in VC provides an MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 0.2m in which photographers can take advantage of the potential of optical performance from F/1.8 full open aperture. Its Ultrasonic Silent Drive (USD) enables fast, precise and quiet autofocus on both stills and video recording. Two molded glass aspherical elements ensure superb focusing by compensating for spherical and chromatic aberrations. LD (Low Dispersion) Glass and XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) Glass further compensates chromatic aberrations to attain clear and crisp images without fringing. The eBAND and BBAR Coating however, provides anti-reflection elements resulting to prevention of ghosting and flares. This lens is available in Canon and Nikon mounts and comes compatible with APS-C and Full Frame Sensor DSLR Cameras.
High Performance at F/1.8 Full Aperture
The open aperture is set to F/1.8 with optimized critical properties at a higher level: superb optical performance coupled with a VC system, a shorter MOD, and a well-balanced form factor. Rigorous simulation processes performed throughout the design phase are materialized in distinguished resolving power and beautifully-tuned background blur, a prominent feature to a fast-aperture, full-frame compliant optic.
Closest Focusing Distance in its Class
The SP 35mm (MOD: 0.2m) offers best-in-class close focusing*. A floating system design feature seamlessly optimizes image quality by shifting elements relative to the focus group in close shooting situations. Of the new SP series lenses, the 35mm lens offers unique opportunities enabling shooting like a wide-angle macro lens.
VC (Vibration Compensation) Integration, Setting Itself Apart
VC deployed on fast-aperture lenses dramatically enhances freedom of hand-held shooting under lime light or dim room light conditions by eliminating minute camera shake. In particular, cameras with high-pixel density imagers tend to pick up subtle vibrations, resulting in degradation of image quality. VC is an excellent attribute to acquire inherent high-fidelity images.
Ultrasonic Silent Drive (USD)
The USD actuator converts ultrasonic waves into rotational motion that delivers autofocus with responsiveness, accuracy, and speed without so much as a whisper. The photographer can easily use manual focus at any point while the AF system is operating without having to fumble for a switch.
Molded Glass Aspherical Elements
Two molded glass aspherical elements deliver planarity in field curvature. These elements ensure superb focusing uniformity over the entire field by compensating for spherical and comatic aberrations.
LD (Low Dispersion) Glass and XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) Glass
To further compensate for chromatic aberrations, the new SP Series lenses use an LD element, and the 35mm lens combines one LD with an XLD element. Together these elements help deliver crisp, clear images without color fringing.
eBAND and BBAR Coating
eBAND (Extended Bandwidth and Angular-Dependency) Coating and BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating both provide superior anti-reflection properties. These technologies have been adapted to each lens and provide crystal clear images by suppressing element surface reflections that lead to ghosting and flare.
eBAND Coating is a nano-structured layer deployed on the critical element surface. In addition to regular anti-reflection coatings, eBAND Coating offers higher transmissivity and a significant improvement in anti-reflection characteristics against angulated incident rays.
Circular Aperture
Even when stopped down two steps, the nine-blade diaphragm maintains its circular shape to deliver nicely-tuned background blur.
Optimal Relative Illumination
The 35mm lens delivers exceptionally uniform illumination levels across the image field to avoid non-linear pattern or fall-off toward corners.
Moisture-Resistant Construction
Constructed to prevent moisture from entering the internal mechanisms of the lens, the new SP line is sealed to allow photographers to shoot outdoors in adverse conditions.
