5-6. 3 Di III RXD and 18-300mm F3. 5-6. 3 Di III-A VC VXD lenses. The company's press release says the lenses should now 'keep excellent track of moving subjects. '
The updates also add support for Sony's AF Assist function, which lets you manually focus even when autofocus is enabled. That should be handy for videographers who want to use autofocus to initially grab focus but then rack focus to something else in the frame, provided they have a Sony body that supports the feature.
The firmware is now available to download from Tamron's site.
