This is the "G2" version that's made a big splash in the photography world because it's far superior to previous models from Tamron. The SP 70-200mm F/2.8 G2 zoom provides a high image quality and enhanced bokeh at nearly any angle. Optical design features include XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) and LD (Low Dispersion) glass to help eliminate chromatic aberrations, giving a high resolution image corner to corner. eBAND Coating designed exclusively for this lens, offers anti- reflection properties, that minimize flare and ghosting. The USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive) ring-type motor, along with two high-performance microcomputers, make for excellent accuracy and focusing speed. Full-time Manual Focus override allows you to make fine adjustments while using AF, without having to switch from AF to MF mode.
