Tamron SP 35mm f/1.4 Di USD Lens for Nikon F overview
The Tamron SP 60mm f/2 Di II 1:1 Macro Lens (Nikon F) is a legendary, high-performance prime lens designed exclusively for crop-sensor (APS-C / DX format) Nikon DSLR cameras. As a member of Tamron’s premium Super Performance (SP) lineup, it holds a unique title as the first macro lens in its class to feature an ultra-bright maximum aperture of f/2.
With a 35mm equivalent focal length of roughly 90mm, this dual-purpose lens is a dream tool for both life-size macro tracking and professional portraiture. It allows creators to capture intricate textures, insects, and fine details at true 1:1 magnification, while seamlessly doubling as a razor-sharp, low-light portrait lens.
Key Features & Benefits
- Ultra-Bright f/2 Maximum Aperture: One full stop brighter than traditional f/2.8 macro lenses. This provides exceptional low-light capabilities and creates an incredibly shallow depth of field with beautiful, smooth background blur.
- True 1:1 Life-Size Magnification: Capture subjects in their exact physical dimensions on the camera sensor. Document breathtaking, crisp close-up details of jewelry, insects, dental work, or textures from a comfortable distance.
- Internal Focusing (IF) System: The lens barrel does not extend or rotate when focusing. This maintains a constant working distance of 100mm (3.9 inches) from the front element to your subject, preventing you from accidentally startling live insects.
- Optimized Di II Optical Coatings: Engineered with advanced internal surface coatings and multiple extra refractive glass elements to minimize ghosting, flare, and chromatic aberrations on digital DSLR sensors.
- Full-Time Manual Focus Override: Features a responsive, wide manual focus ring that allows you to make instant, fine adjustments by hand without having to slide the AF/MF switch—critical for high-precision macro focus stacking.
