Introducing the 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III VC VXD Lens from Tamron, an exceptional telephoto zoom designed for Sony E-mount full-frame camera systems. This versatile lens offers remarkable portability and minimal weight, making it ideal for capturing a wide range of subjects, from dynamic street scenes to captivating wildlife and intimate portraits. Equipped with VC (Vibration Compensation) image stabilization, it effectively minimizes camera shake, resulting in sharper images, especially when using the lens at its maximum 300mm focal length. The VXD linear motor focus mechanism delivers swift and precise autofocus performance, ensuring impressive subject tracking throughout the entire zoom range.
Realize the beauty you envision
The 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 VC lens is crafted with a keen focus on achieving high image quality and high-resolution performance across its extensive zoom range. Its sophisticated optical design includes 19 elements arranged in 14 groups, with the inclusion of two XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) and two LD (Low Dispersion) elements. These specialized elements are crucial in minimizing chromatic aberrations and other optical distortions, ensuring crisp and accurate color rendition.
Additionally, the lens is equipped with BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection Generation 2) Coating. This advanced coating technology significantly reduces ghosting and flare, which is particularly beneficial when shooting in challenging lighting conditions, such as backlit scenarios. This helps photographers capture detailed and vibrant images without unwanted artifacts.
The lens excels in delivering high sharpness and clarity, allowing photographers to realize their creative visions with precision. It also offers smooth tonal gradation and pleasingly soft bokeh, making it an excellent choice for outdoor portrait photography where subject isolation is desired. The ability to blur the background effectively enhances the prominence of the subject, contributing to visually compelling images.
In summary, the 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 VC lens by TAMRON is a versatile and high-performing zoom lens suitable for a range of photographic applications, from detailed close-ups to beautifully rendered portraits.
Capture must-get moments
The AF drive of the 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 VC uses TAMRON's VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor focus mechanism. This AF system allows comfortable focusing from the MOD (Minimum Object Distance) through infinity with high-speed and high-precision performance that represents the highest level in TAMRON’s history. Tracking performance for moving objects is also outstanding, making it perfect for shooting subjects that move in unpredictable ways such as children engaged in sports and spectator events like baseball, rodeos, and auto racing. These features ensure you can capture once-in-a-lifetime photo opportunities without missing the shot. In addition, because the quietness offered by the linear motor system provides nearly silent operation, reducing the noise from vibration and focus driving, the lens can also be used with confidence when shooting still images or filming in quiet settings.
Achieves a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2 at 50mm, offering half-macro shooting
The TAMRON 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 VC zoom lens is an impressive piece of equipment, particularly notable for its close-up shooting capabilities. With a minimum object distance (MOD) of 0.22 meters (8.7 inches) at the 50mm wide end, it offers a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2, enabling you to perform half-macro shooting. This is perfect for getting close to your subjects and capturing fine details.
Even at the maximum telephoto end of 300mm, the lens maintains a relatively short MOD of 0.9 meters (35.4 inches), achieving a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.1. This versatility allows for creative compositions and the ability to capture subjects with a unique perspective, whether you're shooting wide or zoomed in.
Additionally, the lens features VC (Vibration Compensation) technology, which helps stabilize your images and reduce blur, especially useful in handheld shooting situations. This makes the TAMRON 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 VC a versatile and powerful tool for photographers looking to expand their creative options across a wide range of focal lengths.
VC mechanism for steady shooting
The 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 VC is equipped with TAMRON’s VC mechanism to effectively suppress camera shake that tends to occur when shooting in the telephoto range while capturing moving objects and during close-focusing. This outstanding stability frees you to concentrate on shooting with peace of mind. As the full-frame equivalent focal length is 75-450mm when shooting with an APS-C camera, the VC mechanism especially demonstrates its strengths on the telephoto side. The VC can also reduce the degradation of picture quality when shooting in conditions prone to camera shake, such as dimly lit interiors, moody indoor portraits, and low-light conditions such as early morning or evening landscapes. Moreover, using AI technologies at focal lengths of 100mm or less, the lens selects the appropriate compensation characteristics for videography to powerfully support the inherent high optical performance of the lens
