Manufacturer description #2

The world's lightest zoom lens of this zoom range. You will find it the perfect lens for portraiture, candid photography and sports. Exciting "streaking effects" can also be created by zooming the lens during a long or multiple exposure. Most important is the high level of optical performance which makes it suitable for the most demanding photo assignments.

From the editor

Made by Tamron. Optically, the lens is the same as the Tamron-F 85-210/4.5.

Element 5, which is shaded in the image of the optical formula and is placed between elements 4 and 6, does not actually exist.

The lens was also produced for the Alpa Si 2000 35mm SLR camera under the name MULTI-COATED AUTO-ALPA 1:4.5/85~210mm FOR ALPA SWISS.

Version with a pseudo macro capability also existed.
