Tamron is coming up with something new! Let’s speculate…they will release a MicroFourThirds lens? :)

Our friends from photorumors.com just discovered this nice countdown at tamron.de. Are they making a countdown for a new Canon-Nikon-Sony-Pentax lens? This would be boring normal. Let’s hope that this time they are going to make something for us! MicroFourThirds lenses?
It is not a rumor, just my personal wish! Come on Tamron! I know you can make my 25mm f/1.4 lens

4 years ago |maybe tamron will make their own camera, with the LCD and sensor as one inseparable unit that’s not a rumor, just a twisted joke…
seriously tamron is almost owned by sony, and they never had anything to do with 4/3 or m4/3, so a m4/3 lens from them is unlikely.

And the merged company will be renamed Tampax.

A µFT version of the Tokina AT-X 16.5-135/3.5-5.6 would make a nice entry-level travel zoom.

I know a lot of people are sniffy about the image quality of big zooms and would rather have fast primes & fast short zooms, but there must be others like me, who bought m43 with travel in mind and want one lens that does everything and accept that it wont necessarily do any of it at top quality.
So I hope they convert that one.
And I am quite amused by Mel’s inspired speculation!
