Tamron Teaser Seems to Be Sales Event


Tamron posted a teaser a few days ago on Facebook that something was coming, which lead to a lot of wild speculation. Now Tamron has finally clarified what we can expect with its latest statement “Countdown to big savings. Be the first to know! Sign up today.”, which you can also see here and below. I’m not saying they won’t announce more than a sale, but the fact that they got specific might be to quite some of the hype out there.
