Product details

From wide-angle to ultra-telephoto - just one lens. The 18-300mm F/3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD covers a large focal length range from approx. 27mm to 450mm (KB equivalent).
It is the world's first zoom lens with 16.6x magnification for mirrorless APS-C cameras and offers all the advantages of all-in-one zoom lenses that are suitable for a wide range of photographic applications. The carefully balanced optical system comprises several special glass elements that enable a 16.6x magnification with the highest image quality. The resolution from the optical centre to the edge of the image remains consistently high over the entire focal length range. As with Tamron's other lenses for mirrorless system cameras, the filter diameter is 67mm. Suitable for a wide range of photographic applications from everyday snapshots and atmospheric travel impressions to landscape, nature and macro photography. Also impresses with close-ups.

  • PositiveA lot of performance for little money as well as robust processing are the most important plus points of the new Tamron lens.
  • NegativeThe scope of delivery could be a little more extensive with a protective case. But at least the lens hood comes as standard with the lens.

The new Tamron is a very nice solution for everyday photography on holiday or similar occasions when you don't want to lug around a lot of equipment. The performance of the lens, which is available for a street price of 749 euros, is very good.
