How to mount the lens
Removing the rear cap of the lens. Align the Lens attachment mark <l5> on the lens
barrel with its counterpart on the camera mount and insert the lens.
Rotate the lens clockwise until it click-locks. For Nikon models, align the lens
attachment mark with the dot on the camera and rotate the lens counter-clockwise
until it click-locks.
• How to detach the lens
Pressing the lens release button on the camera down, turn the lens counter-clockwise
(in case of Nikon lens, clockwise), and lift the lens off the camera's lens mount.
& . The image circles of Di !I lenses are designed to match the digital SLR cameras using
the Image sensors equivalent to APS-C (approx.15.5x23.2mm). Do not use Di II lenses
with cameras using image sensors larger than APS·C. Using 01 II lenses with such
cameras may cause vignetting on the image.
• Some Canon digital SLR cameras have index marks for attaching both EF lenses (red)
® and EF~S lenses (white) @ on the bayonet mount.
To attach Tamron Dill lenses, align the lens attachment mark on the lens I15l with the
index mark for EF lenses (red) @. Do not forcibly align the indicator on the lens 4Sl
with the index mark for EF-S lens (white) <Bl.
Doing so could result in damage to the lens and/or camera.
lJ . For further details, please read the instruction manual of your camera.
• Avoid touching the glass element surface. Use a photographic lens cloth or blower to
remove dust from the lens element surface. When not using the lens, always place a
lens cap on it for protection.
• Use a lens cleaning tissue or lint cloth with a drop of cleaning solution to remove
fingerprints or dirt on the glass lens surface with a rotary motion from the center to
the edge.
• Use a silicon cloth to clean your lens barrel only.
• Mildew is an enemy of your lens. Clean the lens after shooting near water or in any
humid place. Store your lens in a clean, cool and dry place.when storing the lens in
an lens case, store it with commercially available drying agent such as silicagel, and
change the agent occasionally. If you find mildew on your lens, consult an authorized
repair shop or nearby photo-graphic store.
• Do not touch the lens-camera interface contacts since dust, dirt and/or stains may
cause a contact failure between the lens and camera.
• When using your equipment [camera(s) and lens(es)] in an environment where the
temperature changes from one extreme to the other, make sure to put your
equipment temporarily in a case or a plastic bag for a length of time in order for the
equipment to go through a gradual temperature shift.
This will reduce potential equipment trouble.

• The optical design for Oi II takes into consideration the various features ot digital
single reflex cameras. However, due to the configuration of the digital single reflex
cameras, even when the autofocus accuracy is within specifi-cations, the focal point
may be a little forward or behind the optimum point when shooting with auto focus
under some conditions.
• The image circles of Oi II lenses are designed to match the digital SLR cameras using
the image sensors equivalent to APS-C (approx. 15.5 x 23.2mm). Do not use Oi II
lenses with cameras using image sensors larger than APS-C. Using Oi II lenses with
such cameras may cause vignetting on the image.
• (A1 B) employ an internal focusing (IF) system. Because of the characteristics of this
optical design, the angles of view at distances other than infinity are wider than that
of the lenses applying an ordinary focusing system .
•
When the built-in tlash on the camera is used, adverse photographic phenomena such
as comer illumination fall-off or vignetting at the bottom part of the image may be
observed, especially in wide angle ranges. This is due to the inherent limitation of the
coverage of the built-in flash,and/or the relative position of the flash to the edge of
the lens barrel which causes shadows on the image. It is strongly recommended to
use a suitable separate flash unit provided by the camera manufacturer for all flash
photography.
For further details, please read the "built-in flash" article on the instruction manual of
your camera.
• When using the lens in the telephoto focal range, please be careful with the camera
shake. Effective way to avoid the camera shake is using an ISO setting of higher
numbers. Using a tripod or monopod is also effective.
• When set on AF mode, interfering with focusing ring may cause serious damage to the
lens mechanism.
• Certain camera models may indicate the maximum and minimum aperture values of
the lens appropriate numbers. This is inherent to the design of the camera and not an
indication of an error.'
• When using a special filter such as a PL filter on the AlB, use low-profile filter. The
thick rim of a PL filter may cause Vignetting.
Model A1B is eqUipped with zoom lock switch mechanism which prevent lens barrel
from extendting towards long focal length, while hanging around the neck. Activate the
switch at the shortest setting to stop the lens barrels from rotating and extending.
• How to activate the zoom lock switch mechanism
1) Locking: Set the zoom ring on the lens to the shortest position. Move the zoom
lock switch il2> toward the camera for locking the zooming ring @. The lens
barrel is locked in position when the portion beneath "Lock" is shown in red and
the lens barrel does not rotate or extend by its own weight.
2) Releasing: Push the zoom lock switch il2> up. The zooming ring @ is now
released and can be rotated.
•loom lock switch can not be activated unless the lens is set to the shortest
position. Do not force the lock switch or try to rotate the zooming ring while
locked, doing so may damage the lens.
• The zoom lock mechanism is made to prevent the lens barrel from extending
While carried around the neck. When not locked and the zoom lens may change its
focal length during a long exposure used in a low or high angle position.
A bayonet-type lens hood is provided as standard equipment. We recommend shooting
with the hood attached whenever possible as the lens hood eliminates stray light which
is harmful to the picture. However, please be aware of the precautions written below
when your camera is equipped with a built-in tlash.
•Attaching the Lens Hood (Ref. Figs. IZI & IBJ)
Align the index mark ~ on the hOQd with the corresponding index mark @ or the top
of the index line of the distance scale) on the lens. Press the hood lightly onto the
hood attaching bayonet ring (Fig.lZI, No. 0) and then rotate it clockwise to secure
(Fig. IZI, No.8). The lens hood will be securely held as the mark "TAMRON 0"
comes to the top (Fig.l!lJ, No. @). When attaching the lens hood, hold the focusing
and zoom control rings so that they are not rotated unintentionally.
I . Pay particular attention to align the hood attaching indexes when using zoom lenses
including wide·angle (e.l. 35 mm or wider) settings.
Improper attachment of a hood for wide~angle zoom lens may cause large shadowed
areas in your pictures.
•Stowing lens hood on the lens (Ref. Fig. Illi)
1) Reverse the lens hood. Point the lens toward to opening, then align the hood
attachment mark on the lens with the (TAMRON 0) alignment on the hood @.
2) Turn the hood clockwise until it alignment mark (0) is at the top to set rt. (Fig. 1llJ, 8)
Switch the focusing mode switch ot the camera to manual focusing mode (MF) in case
of Sony or Pentax. In case of a Nikon, Canon camera, switch the AF/MF switch <H> on
the lens to MF. (Fig.lllJ) In case of Nikon camera with the focus mode selector dial, set
the focus mode to "M", and then set the AF/MF switch on the lens side <l'li to "MF."
Focus manually rotating the focusing ring while viewing through the camera's
viewfinder. The main subject in the viewfinder will be sharp when the lens is tocused
correctly.
/; • Even in the MF mode, turning focusing ring (S) while pressing the shutter button halfway the
focus aid function lamp lights up when the picture is in focus.
• At infinity, make sure the image in the viewfinder appears sharp. The infinity position on A18
is made with certain allowances to insure proper focus under a variety of conditions.
• For further details, please read the instruction manual of your camera.
t; . The lens can be used at the shortest setting for picture taking even while in the focused
position.
'-~lIIiI:DE!lElll _
Please follow the instruction manual of your camera.
Rotate zooming ring @ of the lens while viewing through the camera's viewfinder and
compose your image at the chosen focal length.

Suggestions for Better Pictures with Tamron Zoom Lenses
•How to Avoid Camera Shake
When using the lens in the telephoto focal range, please be careful with the
camera shake, To avoid camera shake, for the digital cameras. use an ISO
setting of higher numbers and for the film cameras, use the film with high ISO
numbers to obtain higher shutter speed. Using a tripod or monopod is also
effective.
When hand-holding tile camera to take pictures, stand still openlllg your legs
slightly a part, hold your elbows in firmly against your chest, and 110Id the
camera firmly against your face, If possible. lean against something to steady
yourself or place the camera on something to secure the hold, Especially when
hand-holding your camera. you will be steadier if you hold your breath, while
you press the shutter button gently and firmly.
•Using camera's build-in flash
When using the camera's bullet-in flash. please be ~ware that the lens hood or
lens barrel may block the liglll to cause vignetting on the image. When using
the camera's build-in flash, do not use a lens hood. Even without a lens hood,
vignetting(arcll sllaped shadow) may appear if the light is blocked by the lens
barrel, so it is advisable to use an optical f18sh unit (llOt shoe or handle-mount
type). The conditions; such CiS. the focal length and focusing (Iistance C8use
the vignetting vary depending on the camer8. It is recommended to lest for
vignetting at each focal length and focusing distance,
So machen Sie bessere Bilder mit Tamron-Zoomobjektiven
•Vermeiden von verwackelten Aufnahmen
Wenn das Objektiv im Fokusbereich des Teleobjektivs verwelldet wird, ist die Kamera
besonders Um ein Verwackeln der Kamera zu vermeiden, verwenden Sie bei
Digitalkameras eine hohere ISO-Einstellung und fur Filmkameras einen Film mil hbllerer
ISO-Zahl, um eine schnellere Blendenverschlusszeit zu erreichen. Auch die Verwendung
eines Einbein- oder Dreibeinstativs kann hilfreich sein
Wenn Sie freihandig fotografieren, stehen Sie mit !eicht gespreizten Beinen still, drucken
Sie Ihre Ellenbogen fest gegen Ihre Brust und drucken Sie die Kamera fest an Ihr
Gesicht. Lehnen Sie sich, falls moglich, an einen festen Gegenstand an, um sich
abzustutzen, oder selzen Sie die Kamera auf einen festen Gegenstand, um die
Aufnahmeposition zu sichern. Wenn Sie die Kamera mit der Hand hallen, stehen Sie
ruhiger. wenn Sie den Atem anhalten: drucken Sie dann langsam und fest auf den
Auslbser.
•Verwendung des eingebauten Blitzlichtes der Kamera
Beachlen Sie bei del Verwendung des eillgebauten Blitzlichtes der Kamera. dass die
Gegenlichtblende oder der Objektivtubus nicllt das Licht blockierl; anderenfalls kann
eine Vignettierung des Bildes eintreten, Verwenden Sie keine Gegenlichtblende, wenn
Sie das eingebaute Blitzlicht der Kamera nutzen, Selbst ohne Gegenlichtblende kann
eine Vignettierung (Bildung bogenformiger Schatten) eilltreten, wenn das Licht vom
Objektivtubus blockiert wird; es wird Daher empfohlen, ein optisches Blitzgerat
(Blitzlichtadapter oder Aufbaublitzlicht mit Griff) zu verwenden. Die Umstande, welche
die Vignettierung hervorrufen, wie z. B. die Brennweite und der Fokussierabstand,
hangen von der Kamer~ abo Es wird empfohlen nie Vignettierllng Wr jede 8rennweite
und fUr jeden Fokussierabstand zu prufen.

•Comment eviter les tremblements de I'appareil photo
Lorsque vous utilisez Ie teleobjectif, veillez a ne pas secouer I'apparei\. Pour
eviter les tremblements des appareils photos numeriques, utilisez un regl8ge
ISO plus eleve, Pour les appareils a pellicule, utilisez un film de valeur ISO
elevee pour atteindre une vitesse de declenchement superieure. L'utilisation
d'un trepied ou d'un pied est egaleillent d'une grande aide,
Lorsque vous tenez I'appareil dans vos mains pour prendre des photos, ne
bougez pas et ecartez legereillent les jamlJes, maintenez vos coudes contre
votre poitrine et positionnez I"appareil contre votre visage. Si vous Ie pouvez,
adossez-vous ou placez I'appareil sur un support. Lorsque vous tenez
I'appareil dans les mains, retenez votre respiration tout en appLlyant
douceillent mais ferillement sur Ie declencheur.
•Utilisation du flash integre
Lorsque VOLIS L1tilisez Ie flash integre, notez que Ie parasoleil ou la monture de
I'objectif risquent de bloqller la lumiine, ce qui aura pour effet Ie vignetage de
la photo, Lorsque vous lItilisez Ie flasll. n'utilisez pas de parasolei\. Meme sans
parasoleil, Ie vignetage (ombre arquee) risque d'apparaitrc sl 18 lumiere est
bloquee par la monture de I'objecti!. II est donc recornmande d'utiliser un flash

• Como evitar el movimiento de la camara
Cuando utiliza la gama focal de teleobjetivo, debe evitar el movimiento de la
camara. Para evitar la vibracion, en el caso de las camaras digitales, utilice un
ajuste ISO de numero mas altos y en el caso de las camaras de pelicula, uti lice
la pelicula con numeros ISO altos para aumentar la velocidad del obturador.
Tambien se recomienda el usa de un trip ode 0 un monopode
Cuando sostiene la camara con las manos para tomar una fotografia, parese
derecho con las piernas levemente separadas, apoye los codos firmemente
contra el pecho y mantenga la camara contra la cara sin realizar movimientos.
Si es posible, apoyese contra algo para mantenerse firme en su lugar 0 coloque
la camara sobre algun objeto para afirmarla. Conservara mejor la posicion si
contiene la respiracion cuando presion a el obturador con suavidad y firmeza.
• Como utilizar el flash incorporado
Cuando utilice el flash incorporado, tenga en cuenta que el parasol 0 el tubo
portalentes pueden obstaculizar el paso de la luz y producir un efecto de
viiieteado en la imagen. POI' consiguiente, es aconsejable no utilizar el parasol
cuando se utiliza el flash. EI viiieteado (sombra en forma de arco) se puede
producir aun en ausencia del parasol si el tubo portalentes impide el paso de la
luz; POI' consiguiente, se recomienda utilizar un flash optico (con zapata de
contacto 0 soporte de montaje). Las condiciones que producen el viiieteado,
como la distancia focal y la distancia de enfoque, varian segun la camara. Se
recomienda probar cad a distancia focal y de enfoque para evitar este efecto
indeseado.

• Come evitare Ie vibrazioni nell'uso della fotocamera
Nell'impiego di obiettivi a lunga distanza focale occorre fare attenzione ad evitare Ie
vibrazioni alia fotocamera. Per eVltare il tremolio nella ripresa in fotocamere digitali
utllizzare un settaggio ISO con numeri piu elevati e per fotocamere tradizionali utilizzare
pellicola con numeri ISO elevati per ottenere una maggiore velocita dell'otturatore
Quando la fotocamera viene impiegata senza altra sostegno che la mana, adottare una
posizione stabile a gambe leggermente divaricate, mantenendo i gomiti pogglati al
corpo e la fotocamera ben poggiata contra il viso. Se possibile, appoggiare il corpo ad
un sostegno solido 0 appoggiare la fotocamera su una superficie ben ferma, per
mantenere una posa piu stabile. Se la fotocamera viene tenuta in mana, si ottiene una
posa piu ferma lrattenendo il respiro al momento della pressione sui pulsante di scatto,
che deve avvenire in modo delicato ma sicuro.
• Utilizzo del flash incorporato nella fotocamera
Quando si utilizza il flash incorporato nella fotocamera, tenere in considerazione
che il \.i3raluce 0 il barilotto dell'obiettivo possono bloccare la luce e causare la
vignettatura dell'immagine. Quando si utilizza il flash incorporato, non utilizzare un
paraluce. La vignettatura (ombre ad arco) puo verificarsi anche senza paraluce, se
la luce viene bloccata dal barilotto, e quindi si consiglia di utilizzare un Ilasll attica
del tipo monlato su slitta 0 stafla. Altre condizioni, variabili a seconda del tipo di
fotocamera, possono inlluenzare I'entita della vignettatura, per esempio la
lunghezza della focale e la distanza di messa a luoco. Si raccomanda di eHettuare
prave apposite per ciascuna lunghezza focale e distanza di messa a luoco.

• HOE VERMIJD IK HET BEWEGEN VAN DE CAMERA
Wanneer uIllet de telelens fotograleert, dient u ervoor te zorgen dat de camera
niet wordt bewogen. Om het bewegen van de camera te vermijden, stelt u
hogere ISO-waarden in bij digitale fotocamera's, en bij filmcamera's gelJruikt u
film met ilogere ISO·waarden om een hogere sluitersneilleid te klljg81L Het
gebruik van een stalief is ook doeltreffend.
Wanneer u met de camera vanuit de hand lotograleert, sta dan stil en zet de
benen enigszins uit elkaar, houdt de ellebogen stevig tegen de borst en de
camera stevig tegen het gezicht. Indien mogelijk, leun ergens tegenaan om
ulell te stcuncn nf ~!nntn de GJmera ergens op om b(;tcr houvant Ie iuijgcn. U
rr:Jtograreert oak lJekr v<lnuil (Ie Ilall(! wanneer u uw adem inlloudt, terwijl u de
s!uitr.r I,Hlgzaalll en stcvig indrukt.
• HET GEBRUIK VAN HET INGEBOUWDE FLiTSAPPARAAT
Wanneer u de ingebouwde flits van de camera gebruikl, realiseer u dan dat de
lenskap 01 het lenshuis het licht kan blokkeren en vignetteren van het beeld tot
gevolg hebben. Gebruik geen lenskap wanneer u de ingebOllwde flits gebruikt.
Zclfs zonder een lenskap kan vignettp.ren (boogvormige scha(!uw) plaatsvindcn
wanneer Ilel Ilcht geblokkeerd wordt door l18t lenslluis. Het is dus aan te raden
een optiscll flitsapparaat te gebruikcn (bevestiging op voet 01 beugel op
camera) De condities, zoals de brandpuntsafstand en de scherpstelling, die
vignettering veroorzaken varieren afhankelijk van Ilet type camera. Het is
aanbevolen Olll dit uit Ie proberen voor elke lJrandpunlsafstand en
scherpstelling.
