Excerpt from the Award Citation of the EISA Jury:

EISA WIDEANGLE ZOOM LENS 2023-2024
20-40mm F/2.8 DI III VXD (Model A062)
This zoom lens for Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras provides a focal-length range from 20mm wideangle to 40mm standard. It delivers very high image quality, with a fast F/2.8 aperture across the entire zoom range. The optical construction corrects and minimises image aberrations, while the compact and lightweight build makes this lens ideal for use on a gimbal or in a video rig. The autofocus system is powered by a VXD linear motor that delivers fast focusing and accurate tracking of moving subjects. At the 20mm setting, the minimal focus distance is just 17cm, which allows for striking wideangle close-up shots. As with other new TAMRON models equipped with a USB-C port, the TAMRON Lens Utility software allows users to customise lens functions and update firmware.

EISA TELEPHOTO ZOOM LENS 2023-2024
50-400mm F/4.5-6.3 DI III VC VXD (Model A067)
This versatile telephoto lens offers an 8x zoom ratio ideal for travel, wildlife and sports photography. The lens excels at close-ups, with a minimum focusing distance of 25cm at 50mm and exceptional half-macro capability with a magnification ratio of 1:2. It also delivers impressive performance at 400mm, with a minimum focusing distance of 1.5m and a 1:4 magnification ratio. The VXD linear motor ensures fast and accurate autofocus, while TAMRON’s VC image stabilisation remains effective even at maximum zoom. Superior engineering and special lens elements deliver outstanding image quality with sharp contrast, all in a highly portable form. Users can customise functions and update firmware using the USB-C port and the TAMRON Lens Utility software.
