Tamron Vibration Compensation 17 - 50mm F2.8 XR Di II Lens Canon
The Tamron SP AF 17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II VC LD aspherical proffers a useful wide angle to short telephoto range of 26-78mm (35mm equivalent) in a compact and dense design. Groundbreaking high-speed, high-definition f/2.8 standard zoom features Tamron’s Vibration Compensation (VC) image stabilization mechanism. Vibration Compensation (VC) mechanism minimizes the effects of handheld camera shake.
The SP 17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II VC covers the very popular 17-50mm focal length range (equivalent to 26-78mm in the full-frame 35mm format) making it really versatile. Its broad aperture and stupendous performance provide practical advantages in low-light shooting and aesthetic image control, thus enriching the user’s range of creative expression. The lens boasts one of the best close-up shooting performances in the class of fast standard zoom lenses planned exclusively for digital cameras and featuring an F/2.8 maximum aperture all over the entire zoom range, to guarantee stress-free photographic shots at all focal lengths and distances.
Constructed with advanced Tamron elements; three elements of XR (extra-refractive index) glass, two hybrid aspherical lens elements, and one element of LD glass--this well-designed piece of technology combines Tamron's tradition of first-class image superiority and compact size.
By integrating Tamron's SP (super performance) and Di-II (designed exclusively for digital cameras) specifications, along with extraordinary internal surface coatings to remove ghosting and flare, you're guaranteed to get the better performance you need from your digital camera.
