UPDATED: At the Cp+ show today Tamron is showing the new 17-28mm FE along with the 35mm and 35-150mm DSLR lenses marked with an “E”. At first I thought this might be new E-mount prototypes but I now learned they are regular Canon EF versions.

There seems to have been a confusion with the reports I got from the CP+ show because the lenses had an “E” marking and were displayed together with the two other FE zooms making it look like these would be E-mount versiosn of the recently announced new DSLR lenses.

But thanks to my readers I learned that these unfinished prototypes are “weight” samples which means they are only there so that you can grab them and feel the weight.

Sorry folks, but I got mislead too by the reports I got from the CP+ show. My apologies!
