MOUNTING/REMOVING THE LENS

Mounting

After removing the rear cap, place the lens in the camera mount aligning the lens mount index line with that of the camera body (Canon/Minolta/Pentax). For Nikon models, align the lens mount index line with the dot on the camera. Rotate the lens clockwise until it click-locks (counter-clockwise in case of Nikon body). (For details, please refer to the instruc- tion manual of your camera.)

Removal

Push in and hold the lens release button on the camera body while rotating the lens count- er-clockwise (clockwise in case of Nikon body.)

FOCUSING

Automatic Focusing (for Nikon/Minolta/Pentax AF SLR)

When the camera is on the autofocus mode, the lens focuses automatically. During AF (Auto Focus) operation, the focusing ring will rotate and its movement should not be hindered.

Automatic Focusing (for Canon-EOS AF SLR)

Set the AF/MF Switch on the lens to "AF" mode. Pressing the shutter release button of the camera will activate the auto-focusing function of the camera. During AF operation, the focusing ring will rotate and its movement should not be hindered.

Manual Focusing

When the lens is used on a Nikon/Minolta/Pentax AF camera, switch the camera to the man- ual focus mode. When the lens is on a Canon EOS camera, set the lens AF/MF Switch to the "MF" mode. Turn the focusing ring while looking through the viewfinder. The correct focus position is determined when the picture in the viewfinder becomes sharpest. In manual- focus photography, focusing should always be checked through the viewfinder even when shooting at infinity.

* For further details, see the instruction manual of your camera.

ZOOMING

To set your lens to the desired image composition you desire, simply look through the viewfinder and operate the zoom ring.

672D specifications

The Tamron 672D is a highly regarded lens known for its versatility and excellent optical performance. Designed for use with various camera systems, it caters to both amateur and professional photographers who seek quality and reliability in their image-capturing tools. One of the standout features of the Tamron 672D is its focal length range, which allows photographers to tackle a diverse range of subjects. Its zoom capabilities, which typically extend from wide-angle to telephoto, make it an ideal choice for everything from landscapes to portraits and close-up shots.

One of the most notable technologies employed in the 672D is the use of advanced optical design. This lens utilizes multiple glass elements, including low dispersion (LD) and aspherical elements, to minimize chromatic aberration and distortion. The result is exceptional sharpness and clarity throughout the zoom range, ensuring that images are rendered with precision and detail. Furthermore, the lens features a fluorine coating that repels water and oil, reducing the potential for smudges and streaks on the front element, which is particularly useful when shooting in challenging weather conditions.

The autofocus motor operates quietly, making it suitable for both still photography and videography. Additionally, the lens includes a manual focus option, granting photographers the ability to fine-tune their focus for critical shots.

Build quality is another strength of the Tamron 672D. The lens is designed with a robust yet lightweight structure, making it easy to handle during extended shooting sessions. It often comes with a zoom lock mechanism to prevent accidental zoom movement during transport, adding to its practicality. The ergonomic design ensures a comfortable grip, allowing for stability even in challenging shooting environments.

In summary, the Tamron 672D is a well-rounded lens that combines advanced optical technologies with user-friendly features.
