Tamron Co., Ltd. 7740

The company's goal is to hit ten new models for 2026, but that doesn't necessarily mean four new lenses.

What would a Sony-owned Tamron mean for photographers?

A recent report says that Tamron now has a 60% share in the third-party lens market, including lenses that it makes for other brands

Tamron confirms: "It is true that the Company has received a non-binding proposal from Sony Corporation"

Japanese camera lens maker Tamron said on Thursday it has received an acquisition proposal ‌from Sony Group and that it has established a committee to ‌review its options. The optical components manufacturer said in a statement that Sony made a ​non-binding proposal for a series of transactions to turn it into a wholly owned subsidiary. Tamron did not disclose the financial details of the proposal.

An investigative report from Japan suggests that Sony has explored buying all the shares in lensmaker Tamron
