Availability of the Tamron 10-24?

thrice · 02-29-2008, 03:31 PM

Anyone heard when the Tamron 10-24 will be available? It was announced earlier this month and if anyone knows any rumors about when it will be on the market send them my way. I'm waiting on my UW purchase until I see how this thing works.

No news yet from what I have found. I think the 70-200mm will be out first since the announcement was just for development of the lens not actuall production. My guess will be sometime in the fall.

Given that the 70-200 was supposed to be released in December, I wouldn't hold my breath ;-)
The Canon version of the 70-200 is supposed to be released first. That was just pushed back from March to April. The Nikon version is supposed to have in-lens motor support, so maybe they'll have Pentax SDM support as well (though I wouldn't hold my breath ;-)

I wouldn't expect the 10-24 until the end of the year. I was all excited about it since I had almost decided on the Sigma 10-20, so now I'm back to the Sigma...
