Tamron 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD for Sony E Mount

The Tamron 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD lens presents a distinctive combination of an extensive zoom range and a rapid design. This wide-to-super-telephoto zoom lens is characterized by its impressive f/2.8 maximum aperture at the wide end, complemented by a compact and lightweight design. It incorporates a variety of specialized elements to ensure exceptional sharpness and clarity across the entire zoom range. Enhancing the optical performance is an RXD stepping motor, which facilitates swift and nearly silent autofocus, making it suitable for both still photography and videography. Additionally, it features full-time manual focus override and a minimum focusing distance of 7.5 inches. Designed to withstand challenging environmental conditions, this lens also includes a moisture-resistant construction and a fluorine-coated front element to guard against fingerprints and smudges.

Close-Up Shooting

The 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 offers exceptional close-up capabilities for a versatile zoom lens. At the 28mm wide-angle setting, the minimum object distance (MOD) is 0.19m (7.5 in), achieving a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.1. Conversely, at the 200mm telephoto range, the MOD extends to 0.8m (31.5 in) with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.8. This lens not only allows for the capture of remarkable close-up images but also enables the creation of aesthetically pleasing blurred backgrounds through a large F-number, facilitating unique close-up photography that was previously unattainable with all-in-one zoom lenses.

Compact and Lightweight

Zoom lenses that range from wide-angle to telephoto offer a versatile array of applications, suitable for everything from casual photography to travel adventures. This versatility motivated Tamron to prioritize portability in the design of the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 lens, resulting in a compact and lightweight structure measuring only 117mm (4.6 inches) in length and weighing a mere 575g (20.3 ounces). Its diminutive size ensures ease of use and convenience, particularly during long journeys, alleviating the strain of carrying a heavy camera bag. Additionally, the 67mm filter size aligns with TAMRON’s other mirrorless lenses, allowing for the use of filters such as polarizers and lens caps across the entire series, thereby enhancing convenience and minimizing complications during lens swaps.
