User Ratings & Reviews:

The Tamron SP AF60mm f/2.0 Di II LD 1:1 Macro (model G005) is the industry’s first medium telephoto macro lens designed for APS-C size digital SLR cameras that features a fast maximum aperture of f/2.0—one stop faster than the f/2.8 maximum aperture found on conventional macro lenses in the same class.

The SP AF60mm f/2.0 covers an equivalent angle of view of 93mm when converted to the 35mm format. With is fast f/2.0 maximum aperture, the new macro delivers dramatically attractive blurred background effects. And the addition of Internal Focusing (IF) and Full Time Manual Focus Control Mechanism to its list of highlight features makes this lightweight and compact 1:1 macro lens incredibly easy to use.

  • 1:1 life size macro lens featuring a fast maximum aperture of f/2
  • Employs two large low-dispersion glass elements to attain high optical quality
  • Boasts a best-in-class maximum working distance of 100mm for its category

  • Lightweight and compact body measuring at 73mm in its maximum diameter
  • Internal focusing system that does not extend the length of the lens
  • Full-time manual control mechanism
