Tamron responds — Lensmaker has not been bought by Sony

Since there was nothing on either the Sony or the Tamron websites about any merger or takeover, I wrote to Tamron asking for clarification of the Sony buyout rumors.

The response was quick and clear:

Dear Mr. Bonner,

There is no truth to the rumors that Sony has purchased Tamron.

Thanks.

Stacie Errera

Chief Marketing Officer

Tamron USA, Inc.

It’s always best to hear it from the horse’s mouth!
