Tamron has released “TAMRON Lens Utility Mobile™” Ver.3.0, which appears to include “Delay Start,” “Focus Stopper,” “Astro Focus L
May 30, 2024, Commack, NY – TAMRON Americas, a leading provider of high-quality lenses, announces updates of the TAMRON Lens Utility, dedicated computer software, and the TAMRON Lens Utility Mobile, dedicated application for Android1 OS compatible smartphones and tablets. This update will provide additional functionality for greater convenience in the field and expands the possibilities of still and video photography. The software versions will change from the currently released Ver.2.0 to Ver.3.0, and the updated version will be available for download on May 30, 2024.
TAMRON Lens Utility and TAMRON Lens Utility Mobile Ver.3.0 overviews
October 2021 marked the release of TAMRON Lens Utility, a dedicated computer software that allows users to customize the functions of various TAMRON lenses according to their photographic and video shooting styles. In November 2022, we released TAMRON Lens Utility Mobile for Android OS, as we received many requests for the ability to customize lens functions in the field. In pursuit of even greater convenience, TAMRON has upgraded existing functions, added new functions for both the computer and mobile software, and added a new function exclusively for TAMRON Lens Utility Mobile.
We plan to further expand and enhance functions to make video production more friendly to our customers.
Additional features with the Ver.3.0 update:
● Delay Time Start (upgrade to an existing feature)
This feature delays activation of a focus shift after the Focus Set Button has been pressed to activate. This is used to avoid shaking or button noises to be recorded when the Focus Set Button is pressed, and action starts.
* In addition to the Focus Set Button on the lens, this can also be used with the Remote Set Button with the TAMRON Lens Utility Mobile.
● Focus Stopper (new feature)
This feature fixes the focus range when manual focus is operated during video shooting. This will prevent the user from passing over the focal point.
* The stopper will automatically be released when switching to AF mode.
* In addition to the Focus Set Button on the lens, this feature could also be controlled from the Remote Set Button featured in the TAMRON Lens Utility Mobile.
● Astro Focus Lock (Astro FC-L) (new feature)
This feature fixes the focus on stars, which is useful for astrophotography. The focus is shifted to infinity and operation of the focus ring will be disabled (locked). Locking the focus ring prevents the focus from slipping through inadvertent operation.
* In addition to the Focus Set Button on the lens, this can also be used with the Remote Set Button with the TAMRON Lens Utility Mobile.
● Digital Follow Focus (DFF) (new dedicated feature only for TAMRON Lens Utility Mobile)
This feature allows you to fix a focus range between two points and perform focus operations from your smartphone screen, just like follow focus techniques. The direction of rotation of the aperture and focus rings, units indicated, and EV steps can also be changed.
*Aperture ring control and EV step configuration is not supported on Nikon Z mount lenses.

once more rumor that recently hit our mailbox
Sony ZV-E10 II and Sony A6200
Another unusual rumor we are hearing is that Sony plans to introduce two APS-C bodies with 26 MP sensors in 2024. One is the shutter-less ZV-E10 II designed for vlogging, and the other is aimed at photography, featuring an EVF and a mechanical shutter.
—- End of Rumor # 2 —-
I think this rumor is likely to be false, since an EVF-based 26 MP budget APS-C Mirrorless will disturb the sale of the Sony A6700 camera, I don’t think Sony will do this with the A6700.

Like a D-Lux 8 finally announced, the camera features an updated menu system similar to the full-frame Q3 model and some subtle upgrades. Let’s talk about the set of camera upgrades from its predecessor. First of all, the sensor remains the same, so don’t get overexcited thinking you will get a new sensor. It has the same sensor and the same image processor. Also to be noted, the camera uses the same old DFD autofocusing system (Depth From Defocus) developed by Panasonic, so we will not be getting any hybrid SIMO autofocus sensor inside this camera. Overall, the core specifications remain similar, but Leica was able to do something related to the display portion of the camera. In the D-Lux 8, the viewfinder is upgraded to OLED 2.36 million dots, earlier the DLUX 7 had a 2.76M dot “equivalent” viewfinder, but according to LEICA the new one avoids the field-sequential tearing effect for smoother operation.
Other Updates
- Rear Screen: It boasts a higher resolution 1.84M dot (960 x 640px) rear screen, enhancing clarity and detail in image review and menu navigation.
- USB-C Charging: The new model includes a USB-C socket, allowing for convenient in-camera charging.
- Bundled Flash: The D-Lux 8 comes bundled with a flash, adding value and flexibility for low-light shooting.
Leica DLUX 8 Major Specification
- 17MP Four Thirds CMOS Sensor
- Leica 10.9-34mm f/1.7-2.8 Lens
- 24-75mm Full-Frame Equivalent
- DNG Format Support
- On-Camera Flash Included
- Leica FOTOS App Connectivity

There lot of discussion has been circulating on the Internet following our post where we published the registration details of three new cameras after the Z6 Mark III camera registration. This raised questions from users who commented on our website and the rumor mill, suggesting that these registrations are not new, specifically the three registrations that appeared after the Z6 Mark 3 camera. Is this true? Let’s find out.
In 2024 The 1834 Model Code Used to Register a Bluetooth Device (No WiFi inside the device )
The Orginal P950 Reg Certificate shows it also has WLAN capabilities (WiFi)
The 1834 Model Used by Nikon P950 – Digital Camera
The mistake made by the camera maker, which users did not notice while pointing out that all three are older generation cameras, is the Nikon P950 registration model code name, 1834, which was registered back in 2022 with WiFi – WLAN 2.4 Ghz. Nikon has used the same model code to trick us, but the major mistake they made was using that particular model code for a Bluetooth device in 2024. If they were renewing a particular product, both products should share similar wireless capabilities, but the new N1834 mode doesn’t have WiFi inside it,. It’s very clear from this incident that the camera maker is reusing its old model codes for their new products. This particular incident reveals their future strategy. I hope this clears up any confusion.
And yes, there is a strong chance that all three models are old and Nikon is just upgrading the certification time, let’s hope for the best.
