Compatibility Nikon Z and Canon EOS R

Compatibility of Tamron lenses with Nikon Z and Canon EOS R

Many Tamron lenses can be used with the lens adapter in conjunction with the mirrorless full-frame system cameras from Canon (Canon EOS R system) and Nikon (Nikon Z system). For full compatibility, an update of the lens firmware is required for older Tamron Models. Newer Models are shipped with compatible firmware.

By the most lens models you can easily update the firmware yourself with the Tamron TAP-in console. Screw the lens onto the console, which you then connect to the computer via USB cable. Start the software "TAP-in Utility" and follow the steps of the update instructions. You can download the software here.

If you don’t have a TAP-in Console, please contact Tamron Service.
