Tamron, a US-based manufacturer for camera lenses recently announced the development of one of its lenses that features image stabilization along with ultrasonic auto-focus drive. The 70 to 300mm f/4-5.6 zoom lens also boasts Tamron’s Ultrasonic Silent Drive or what they call a USD motor.

The lens has vibration compensation making it an ultimate optical attachment for your camera. Tamron has been producing compatible mounts for bigwigs in the digital camera business such as Canon and Sony.

With the lens’ superior optical performance, you will never go wrong. Even newbies can start producing premium photos in no time with this lens.

Anyone interested in experimental photography should definitely know about Lensbaby and their line of unique optics. Pictured here is the “Control Freak” which was set to have been released already, but the date has been pushed back. Some speculate that the earliest the lens will be available is September. The lenses currently available, however, are not disappointing in the least. Lensbabies allow the user to bend, tilt, and tweak the lenses in certain ways so as to achieve tunnel vision, blurs, and numerous other eye-catching movements within an image. Lensbabies are a bit pricey as non-standard lenses go, but the one-of-a-kind effects they create could be well worth it for experimental enthusiasts.  Head on over to the Lensbaby gallery for further convincing: Lensbaby gallery.
