The lenses differ slightly in their size and weight, with the Canon a hair smaller at 4.9” and 22 oz to the Nikon’s 5” and 22.4 oz. The Canon variant will also feature an AF/MF Switch and a VC (Vibration Compensation) ON/OFF Switch. Tamron’s Lens Utility software will provide support to both lenses for any firmware upgrades.
Both variants retain the same linear motor focus mechanism VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) for quiet and fast autofocus, along with Tamron’s proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) mechanism. The optical design will include special lens elements to maximize edge-to-edge performance, making this lens a high-end all-in-one zoom experience. A close-focus capability of 5.9″ will give the lens a 1:2 reproduction ratio on the wide end for great close-up photographic opportunities, with a 1:4 reproduction ratio on the tele side.
The lenses also feature a moisture-resistant construction and fluorine coatings to repel oil and water, making them suitable for use outdoors, where their reach and feature-set will be particularly useful for wildlife, bird, and travel photography.
