The Tamron 35-150mm F/2-2.8 Di III VXD is a compact, versatile, fast-aperture telephoto zoom lens for Sony E-mount full-frame mirrorless cameras that is ideal for travel photography. It is the first zoom lens for Sony E-mount full-frame mirrorless cameras to have a maximum wide-open aperture of F2. It includes the VXD (Voice-coil extreme-torque Drive) linear motor focus mechanism to give super-fast and high-precision autofocus.
Versatile zoom range
The 35mm to 150mm zoom range of this lens is ideal for travel photography because you can do so much with just one lens. You can capture snapshots at the wide angle of 35mm or standard angle of 50mm, close-up portraits at 85mm and telephoto shots at 150mm. The responsive zoom ring enables you to continue shooting as you shift from wide to telephoto seamlessly and smoothly without changing lenses—which is convenient for video as well as still photography.
Fast, quiet VXD linear motor mechanism for high-speed and high-precision autofocus
The lens's AF drive uses the linear motor focus mechanism VXD. The high-speed, high-precision AF provides the lens with superior responsiveness to the photographer’s actions, delivering stable and reliable focusing even with fast-aperture lenses, from the MOD (Minimum Object Distance) to infinity. The 35-150mm F2-2.8 offers excellent focus tracking of moving objects so you are ready for those important moments. Additionally, the focus motor is quiet, so it is ideal for shooting both still images and video in situations that demand low noise.
Outstanding optical performance
Thanks to the latest optical design featuring four LD (Low Dispersion) and three GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) lens elements optimally arranged, the 35-150mm F2-2.8 provides superior optical performance throughout the entire zoom range. It consistently achieves high image quality to the edges of the frame and reduces onion ring bokeh (concentric circles) while presenting a beautiful, soft bokeh style that is achieved only by fast apertures.
Tamron Lens Utility for function customization
This lens is compatible with the TAMRON Lens Utility software. Lens Utility can be operated using computer by connecting the lens from its Connector Port via the optional TAMRON Connection Cable.
