Tamron Releases Two Accessories for 150-600mm Lens

From Tamron:

Lens Case A011 (Model LA011)

A new lens case compatible with SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD (Model A011)

October 8, 2015, Saitama, Japan – Tamron Co., Ltd. (President & CEO: Morio Ono), a leading manufacturer of optics for a wide range of applications, announces the launch of a lens case compatible with SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD (Model A011). The new lens case will be sold as a separate accessory.

Tripod mount ring (long type), an optional accessory for A011 (Model A011TL)

A newly-designed optional tripod mount ring for SP 150-600mm VC USD extends the base surface of the tripod mount to improve stability and versatility

In addition to the Model LA011 lens case, Tamron also announces the launch of a tripod mount ring (long type) for SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD (Model A011).

Tamron has designed a new long-type tripod mount ring for its well-received SP 150-600mm VC USD. By comparison with the supplied tripod mount, the new long-type design provides an extended base surface. This extra space not only makes it possible to add a second screw hole for secure mounting, thereby enhancing stability and versatility, but also makes it easier for users to hold the base surface and carry it around. The new mount ring will be sold as a separate accessory.

Date of Launch: October 15, 2015*
* Both products will be launched first in the Japanese market, with overseas launches to follow.

Note: The long tripod mount ring was originally announced in February but is now finally set to launch next month. [Sean]
