February 4, 2015 By Eric Reagan

Pentax 70-200mm f2.8

Big news today from Pentax. The previously teased and leaked Pentax 70-200mm f/2.8 and Pentax 150-450mm f/4.5-5.6 lenses were officially unveiled today. That’s some pretty sweet big glass on its own. Perhaps the bigger news is the camera that is coming for these full frame lenses. [Read more…]

Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD Lens Coming in January

December 14, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Tamron SP 150-600mm Lens

Tamron’s new new 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DI VC USD lens that is set to replace the current 200-500mm version will be available in the US on January 17, 2014. Tamron still hasn’t released pricing on the new lens; however, I would expect it to come in higher than the $949 street price of the existing 200-500mm lens.

Tamron offers a little more detail into the build of the lens with its latest press release.

Employing 20 elements in 13 groups and boasting an advanced optical design, the lens delivers a superior balance of resolution and contrast for sharp, clear images. The front group contains three LD (Low Dispersion) glass elements (two in the first group, one in the third) for enhanced optical correction effectiveness, enabling the lens to thoroughly compensate for on-axis aberrations at the telephoto end. The lens also adopts eBAND Coating, developed from state-of-the-art coating technologies, and conventional BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating to greatly suppress ghosting and flare even when shooting under adverse lighting conditions.

The new 150-600mm lens is already listed at B&H Photo for Canon, Nikon and Sony mounts; however, as noted above, there is no pricing info as of yet.

Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM Lens with Internal 1.4x Extender Officially Announced w/ Pricing and Shipping Dates

May 14, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM Lens with Internal 1.4x Extender

The long-awaited Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM lens with built-in 1.4x extender is now officially official and can be purchased for $11,799. Better yet, it should start shipping in a couple of weeks at “the end of May.”

The Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM can be pre-ordered here at B&H Photo and here at Adorama.

Based on the hype surrounding this lens, including the rave reviews from Olympic photographers, expect there to be some pre-orders stacking up, which could lead to some delays in meeting the demand. [Read more…]

 Nikon 800mm f/5.6

Evidence that Nikon’s new 800mm behemoth is shipping to customers in China appeared earlier this week on the Mobile01 forums, where a user posted images of his new $18,000 lens. This should serve as good news to US customers who have pre-ordered the super-telephoto lens, as B&H Photo currently lists it as expected to ship next week on April 4.
