My Apple/Mac issue was solved. It requires the Silicon Labs driver before Tamron Application will operate. Now it works!

I’m glad. I was replying to your previous comment that making sure the driver is installed. Thanks for your comment.

I also get the "Lens Connection FAILED" message. Used a variety of USB-Cs and even FireWire. Tried all ports on Mac Studio Ultra. Lens removed from Camera. Nothing works!

Hi, thanks for your comment. I assume you also updated the Lens Utility app to version 2 (including the driver to run the app properly). And you examine Tamron lens compatibility list to the app. If you haven’t, please examine their support site below. I myself just followed the instructions for my lens before posting this video. www.tamron.com/global/consumer/support/download/firmware/update_info.html

Thanks for showing. Tamron says "Update can be done with your own camera body". So i tested with the camera body and nothing worked. It a misleading description from tamron in my opinion.

Thanks for your comment. Were you able to get it to work, with the lens removed from the camera?

Thanks for your comment. You may have to use their recommended cable (Tamron’s) or another cable that is “decent” or brand name that is mentioned data transferable USB-C. Let me know how it goes. Thanks.
