About this product
The 35-150mm F/2-2.8 Di III VXD (Model A058), launched in 2021, has earned strong praise as a high-end portrait zoom. While highly acclaimed for its imaging performance, some users have wished for a lighter, more compact option. Developed in response to user demand, the 35-100mm F/2.8 Di III VXD (Model A078) focuses on the most essential and popular portrait focal lengths - 35mm, 50mm, 85mm and 100mm - in one lens. Despite its fast F2.8 aperture, it achieves a remarkably compact and lightweight design at just 4.7" (119.2mm) and 19.9oz. (565g). Delivering high image quality and soft bokeh, it’s perfect for candid portraits and travel photography. The VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor provides fast, precise AF to capture natural expressions, and the 8.7" (0.22m) MOD at the wide end is ideal for tabletop shots. The TAMRON Lens Utility™ allows users to assign functions for video and stills, while the refined design ensures comfortable handling for everyday and special moments. The lens is compatible with TLU Version 5.0 and new TAMRON-LINK bluetooth adapter for wireless connectivity.

The Tamron 35-150mm F/2-2.8 Di III VXD (Model A058) is the first zoom lens achieving an aperture of F2 at the wide end in a Sony full-frame mirrorless lens. This versatile all-in-one zoom allows photographers to shoot at the common focal lengths frequently used when creating art while traveling and portraits, from the wide angle to normal, semi-telephoto, and telephoto—and anything in between. Clearly capture subjects as you envision them with its overwhelming resolving power and amazing flexibility. As a premier camera lens manufacturer, Tamron is proud to present this versatile zoom range and breathtaking image quality in a unique all-in-one zoom.

The Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 (Model A063) provides outstanding resolution and superb overall performance in a lightweight and compact zoom lens for Sony E-mount full-frame mirrorless cameras. High definition and spectacular image quality are the key areas of advancements. The Model A063 features a redesigned optical system but maintains a size similar to its predecessor. The lens provides exceptionally strong optical performance, edge-to-edge across the frame, throughout the entire zoom range, along with the soft, beautiful bokeh effects that are distinctive to fast aperture lenses. The lens features Tamron’s VXD autofocus motor to enable high speed, high precision auto-focusing. Closeup shooting capabilities have also been improved and achieve an MOD of 7.1” at 28mm and a maximum image magnification ratio of 1:2.7. It is equipped with new, groundbreaking features that enable users to easily perform customization and firmware updates themselves. For example, users can reverse the direction of the focus ring for manual focus operation. Additionally, Tamron has adopted a new design with improved ergonomics and revised the exterior coating of the lens body to improve scratch resistance. The filter size is 67mm, which is standard among Tamron's fast aperture zoom lens series and enables the sharing of lens caps, filters, and other accessories. In addition to features such as Moisture-Resistant Construction and a protective Fluorine Coating, the lens supports various features built into Sony E-Mount cameras, including Fast Hybrid AF, Eye AF and in-camera lens corrections (shading, chromatic aberration, distortion).

The Tamron 28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 (Model AFA071S-700) is the world’s first all-in-one zoom to achieve a maximum aperture of F2.8 at the 28mm wide-angle end. Despite covering a wide range of focal lengths, the lens is lightweight and compact, making it convenient to bring along for all your picture taking needs. When combined with a compact, lightweight full-frame/APS-C mirrorless camera, it allows photographers to capture virtually every scene they encounter in daily use, travel, sports and nature. Tamron did not compromise on optical performance. The use of special lens elements—including LD (Low Dispersion) and XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion)- help suppress chromatic aberrations, making it possible to achieve high image quality from edge to edge. With a MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 0.19m (7.5 in) at the wide end and 0.8m (31.5 in) at the telephoto end, the lens also offers high-level close-up shooting performance. The AF drive system is powered by the RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) stepping motor unit to deliver high-speed, high-precision performance. The lens also features Moisture-Resistant Construction and Fluorine Coating for added protection.
