Market-Launch Announcement of a Vari-Focal Lens
Supporting Higher than 3-Mega-Pixel/Full HD1080P Resolution
under Visual and Near-IR Lights
1/2.7” 2.7-13mm F/1.4 (Model: M13VG2713IR)
May 8, 2017, Saitama, Japan-Tamron Co., Ltd. (President & CEO: Shiro Ajisaka), an integrated optics manufacturer and leader in the security/surveillance equipment industry, announces the release of a 3-mega-pixel 1/2.7” 2.7-13mm F/1.4 vari-focal lens (Model: M13VG2713IR) that supports high resolution throughout the visual and the near-IR spectrum.

Imagers are migrating toward higher resolution as high-quality images are required for security applications; High-end mega-pixel cameras are increasingly put to night-time surveillance use. Addressing the growing need in the market, Tamron developed an industry-leading high-resolution vari-focal lens that supports ultra-high resolution compatible with 3-mega-pixels throughout the visual light and the near-IR spectrum.
Product Information
-
1.Distinguished Optical Performance 'Compatible With 3-Mega-Pixels'
Leading technologies such as aspherical lens and extraordinary LD (Low Dispersion) lens were employed together with state-of-the-art optical design to achieve high-fidelity imaging compatible with 3-mega-pixel cameras, exceeding full HD1080P resolution. The lens boasts the fastest F-number F/1.4, which effectively assures mega-pixel image-quality even under low illumination condition.
-
2. Mega-Pixel Imaging Sustainable Under IR Lighting
Imaging quality of conventional lenses often gets compromised under a near-IR light as compared with that under a visual light. Tamron considers image-quality degradation in the “night-time mode” devalues the advantage of mega-pixel cameras. The lens newly announced maintains high-quality 3-mega-pixel imaging throughout the visual and near-IR spectrum, without quality degradation when a camera is switched to “night-mode”.
-
3. Wide-Utility Focal Length of 2.7 – 13mm and Wide-Angle Horizontal FOV Angle of 125.1°
Mega-pixel image-quality is assured over the most widely-utilized focal-length range of 2.7 – 13mm. The focal length of 2.7mm at the wide-angle (FOV angle of 125.1°) is especially useful to obtain an entire room view from a corner point.
-
4. Reduction of Color Blur by Elimination of Chromatic Aberration
A new optical design eliminates chromatic aberration to the limit, resulting in images without annoying color blur. Incoming light reflection on the lens surface is thoroughly suppressed by means of state-of-the-art lens design to prevent its incursion into output images. Employing multi-coating technology also assures flare-free and ghost-free imaging.
-
5. Highest-Precision and Highest-Quality Lens Construction that Maximizes Optical Performance
All lens components are designed in the highest precision and produced using the most advanced manufacturing technology. In-house manufacturing know-hows are extensively employed to eliminate image degradation such as image shifts and unbalanced blurs.
-
6. Improved Lens Integration
Obtrusion of the lens element at the lens mount surface is eliminated to improve lens compatibility with general cameras.
