Home and office : Digital still cameras |
 |
Digital cameras have revolutionized the ways to enjoy photography. At Tamron, we design and manufacture a built-in lens module for compact digital still cameras. According to our 2003 market survey, Tamron does about one fifth of the domestic lens production. We like to think that this is because consumers positively evaluate our technical skills. |

The CCD contains more than 5 million light-sensitive picture elements arranged in an area only 6.7 x 5.8 mm for a 1/1.8 type CCD. The Tamron lens module for digital cameras has the power to project an image onto this minuscule CCD. The image can then be magnified close to 4,000 times to a maximum A4 size(210mm×297mm) for printing. This incredible magnification ratio does not normally happen with a film camera. The digital camera image sharpness is directly related to the quality of lenses. Tamron is a globally integrated optical maker capable of designing and mass-producing optical systems with this "ultra high resolution" required for digital cameras. |
