-The image circles of Di-II lenses are designed to match the digital SLR camera using the image sensors equivalent to APS-C (approx. 15.5 x 23.2mm). Do not use Di-II lenses with cameras using image sensors larger than APS-C. Using Di-II lenses with such cameras may cause vignetting on the image.

-(B001) employ an internal focusing (IF) system. Because of the characteristics of this optical design, the angles of view at distances other than infinity are wider than that of the lenses applying an ordinary focusing system.

-When the built-in-flash on the camera is used, adverse photographic phenomena such as corner illumination fall-off or vignetting at the bottom part of the image may be observed, especially in wide-angle ranges. This is due to the inherent limitation of the coverage of the built-in-flash, and/or the relative position of the flash to the edge of the lens barrel which causes shadows on the image. It is strongly recommended to use a suitable separate flash unit provided by the camera manufacturer for all flash photography. For further details, please read the “built-in-flash” article on the instruction manual of your camera.

-The use of teleconverters is not recommended due to the optical performance of the lens. -When using the lens in the telephoto focal range, please be careful with the camera shake. Effective way to avoid the camera shake is using an ISO setting of higher numbers. Using a tripod is also effective.

-When set on AF mode, interfering with the focusing ting may cause serious damage to the lens mechanism.

-Certain camera models may indicate the maximum and minimum aperture values of the lens appropriate numbers. This is inherent to the design of the camera and not an indication of error.

-When using a special filter such as a PL filter, use low profile filters. The thick rim of a normal filter may cause vignetting.

TO ENSURE LONG TERM SATISFACTION

-Avoid touching the glass element surface. Use photographic lens cloths or blowers to remove dust from the lens element surface. When not using the lens, always place a lens cap on it for protection.

-Use a lens cleaning tissue or lint cloth with a drop of cleaning solution to remove fingerprints or dirt on the glass lens surface with a rotary motion from the center to the edge. Use a silicone cloth to clean your lens barrel only.

-Mildew is an enemy of your lens. Clean the lens after shooting near water or in any humid place. Store your lens in a clean, cool, dry place. When storing the lens in a lens case, store it with commercially available drying agents such as silicagel, and change the agent occasionally. If you find mildew on your lens, consult an authorized repair shop or nearby photographic store.

-Do not touch the lens-camera interface contacts since dust, dirt and/or stains may cause a contact failure between the lens and camera.

-When using your equipment [camera(s) and lens(es)] in an environment where the temperature changes from one extreme to the other, make sure to put your equipment temporarily in a case or plastic bag for a length of time in order for the equipment to go through a gradual temperature shift. This will reduce potential equipment trouble.

This flexibility allows photographers to capture a variety of subjects without the need to constantly switch lenses. With a fast maximum aperture, these lenses excel in low-light situations and provide excellent depth of field control, making them ideal for portrait, landscape, and macro photography.

The AFB001 series incorporates advanced optics designed to minimize aberrations and deliver sharp, high-contrast images. The innovative lens elements are coated with Tamron's proprietary BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) coating, which significantly reduces flare and ghosting while enhancing color accuracy and image clarity. The lenses also utilize a specialized low-dispersion glass that further improves overall image quality by reducing chromatic aberration.

Additionally, the design includes moisture-resistant construction, providing peace of mind when shooting in challenging weather conditions. This feature is particularly beneficial for outdoor photographers who often encounter unpredictable environments. The lenses also boast a silent and quick autofocus system, thanks to Tamron’s Ultrasonic Silent Drive (USD) technology, which ensures accurate focusing without disturbing the subject.

Durability is another hallmark of the AFB001 series, with robust build quality that withstands the rigors of frequent use. The lenses are also relatively lightweight, ensuring ease of handling and portability for on-the-go shooting.
