Excerpt from the Award Citation of the EISA Jury
EISA SUPERZOOM LENS 2025–2026
TAMRON 28-300mm F/4-7.1 Di III VC VXD (Model A074)
The TAMRON 28-300mm is an all-in-one zoom lens for everyone. It lets you capture a wide range of subjects from landscapes at 28mm, through standard shots at 35mm and 50mm, portraits at 85mm and 135mm, to wildlife and sports at 300mm. The lens also has an MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 7.5” (0.19m), providing a 1:2.8 magnification ratio for close-ups at its wide 28mm end. Images are impressively sharp in the centre of the frame, aided by the highly effective VC (Vibration Compensation) mechanism. Designed for Sony full-frame mirrorless E-mount cameras, this 10.7x zoom lens is lightweight and compact, at 610g and just 126mm long, making it an ideal travel companion. Its Moisture-Resistant Construction and Fluorine Coating help protect your equipment when shooting outdoors. With a built-in USB Type-C port, users can adjust focus behaviour, assign custom functions, and update firmware via the dedicated Tamron Lens UtilityTM software.
EISA MACRO LENS 2025–2026
TAMRON 90mm F/2.8 Di III MACRO VXD (Model F072)
The TAMRON 90mm F/2.8 Di III MACRO VXD is a modern macro lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras from Nikon and Sony that combines high image quality with practical handling. Its optical design delivers very good sharpness right into the corners of the image, even at maximum aperture, supported by effective correction of chromatic aberrations and distortion. With a magnification of 1:1, the lens is ideal for detailed close-ups, but its focal length and speed also make it a very good portrait lens. The fast and quiet VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor focus mechanism ensures precise autofocus, even with moving subjects. Thanks to its compact design, Moisture-Resistant Construction and high build quality, the lens is also reliable in outdoor use. The built-in USB Type-C port enables video and photo creators to configure functions like A-B focus, and focus ring behaviour via the TAMRON Lens Utility for PC, AndroidTM OS smartphones or tablets.
