Tamron Unveils 14-150mm F/3.5-5.8 DI III in MFT Format

Here comes another high quality superzoom lens manufactured by Tamron, who has been creating so many excellent lens at the right price point for the past 22 years.

The lens features a total of 17 elements in 13 groups.  The much talked about built-in vibration compensation  (VC) feature has been dropped sadly. However, many of the Micro Four Thirds camera features in-body stabilizer and not including VC in a superzoom lens such as this results in more compact and affordable price.

The Tamron 14-150mm F/3.5-5.8 DI III will be available starting June 26 in the U.S. with a estimated price of $589.
