Fujifilm Photography News and Rumors

Tamron released a CP+ 2022 video that you can view below, but it mainly relates to current products on the market. Since Tamron is new to Fujifilm it is interesting to note that they have committed to releasing 3 lenses for X-mount this year out of the 5 lenses they are expected to release from them this year. The lenses we know of are below:

• Tamron 11-20mm f/2.8 DI III-A RXD (Wide Zoom)
• Tamron 17-70mm f/ 2.8 Di III-A VC RXD (Standard Zoom)
• Telephoto Zoom?

Tamron has been innovative with its mirrorless lens designs and in the video below at 38:45 Tamron made an interesting statement, that dclife translated:

Tamron will continue to listen to the voices of our customers and develop unique lenses that are unique to Tamron. And I would like to incorporate customization functions into all models of future lenses, improving optical performance, further maximizing AF speed, improving operability of zoom ring and focus ring, texture and grip. We would like to make further improvements such as improving the feeling.

In particular, “TAMRON Lens Utility” is still a developing technology, so we would like to hear your voices and requests and add it to new functions.

In addition to improving optical performance and AF performance, future models will be equipped with a lens customization function for all lenses. We are waiting for your requests for lenses and customization functions.

So it seems Tamron is going to make their future lenses programable/customizable, which will be a nice value-added feature. I am sure more mirrorless lens manufacturers will follow in the future as lenses become more digital and integrated with the camera, but Tamron is off to a good start.
