  • Page 5 What does (designed for exclusive use on digital SLR cameras with smaller-size imagers) mean?
  • Page 6 Designed to capture the optimum scope when used with a digital SLR camera Since the sizes of 35mm film format are different from the image sensor of a digital camera, the scope of the Digital SLR with smaller-size imager 35mm Film image captured is different even when focal lengths are the same (i.e., angles of view differ).
  • Page 7 When designing a lens having a short focal length range (when designing a wideangle lens), the diameter of the lens inevitably becomes large. However, in designing the 18-200mm Di II lens, Tamron has successfully solved this problem by using an image circle designed to match that of general image sensor (smaller- size image sensor), achieving almost the same compactness as the 28-300mm lens (A061), which offers the same angles of view produced in 35mm film format.
