Overview

Tamron is a versatile zoom for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras. Covering ultra-wide to wide focal lengths, this lens is particularly suitable for landscape, astrophotography, and architectural shooting. Its bright f/2.8 constant maximum aperture complements this range and affords increased control over depth of field along with enhanced low-light performance. The optical design incorporates a both XLD and LD elements, which produce a highly corrected image with reduced chromatic aberrations and color fringing for improved clarity and color accuracy. Individual elements also feature Tamron's BBAR coating, which suppresses flare and ghosting for greater contrast when working in backlit and harsh lighting conditions. Additionally, adding to the versatility, an RXD stepping motor enables quick, near-silent autofocus performance to suit stills and video, along with full-time manual focus override and a minimum focusing distance of 7.5". Suiting this lens's use in inclement weather conditions, it also features a moisture-resistant construction along with a fluorine-coated front element to protect against fingerprints and smudging.

Versatile wide-angle zoom is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, however can also be used with APS-C models where it will provide a 25.5-42mm equivalent focal length range.
Bright constant f/2.8 maximum aperture affords consistent brightness throughout the zoom range and offers improved control over depth of field.
XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) and LD (Low Dispersion) elements greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations throughout the zoom range in order to realize improved clarity and color accuracy.
BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating has been applied to individual elements in order to suppress internal reflections, flare, and ghosting to achieve greater contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.
RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) autofocus motor delivers impressively quiet, quick, and smooth focusing performance to suit both stills and video applications. This focusing system also offers a minimum focusing distance of just 7.5" and a 1:5.2 maximum magnification for working with close-up subjects. Full-time manual focus override is also possible and it is compatible with Sony's Direct Manual Focus function or fine-tuned manual control.
A moisture-resistant construction benefits this lens' use in inclement conditions, and a fluorine coating has also been applied to the front lens element to protect against dust, dirt, and smearing.
Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.

Great lens!
This lens is great!! It was my starter lens for a Sony A7III. I would recommend Tamron any day. Best Buy has the best prices!

Light, sharp and amazing for the price
Heard someone say, who needs the native glass when you can get this for much cheaper..still prefer the native glass, but no one would ever be disappointed with the quality of this lens. Love the weight..perfect pairing for the new 7C coming out soon!
H
Great Lens for less than half price of GMaster
Awesome wide lens and very sharp with a f2.8 and if you wanted a native lens similar it would cost you more than double this Tamron 17-28.
Love the price & quality.

Great ultra wide zoom for Sony
Great lens to pair with the Tamron 28-75. For the price can’t be beat. Very sharp at all aperatures. Build quality is fine for the price, don’t expect G master quality/features at this price point. Fast, quiet and accurate autofocus.
S
Great wide lens for Sony
Tamron delivers great quality budget lens for Sony full frame cameras. Works really well with Sony’s Autofocus feature as well as subject detection (human and pets).
J

Quality imaging
Great for its price. If you’re looking to make vlog style videos, I highly recommend this lense.

Affordable, lightweight, sharp
Very pleased with this lens. The light weight allows for ease of carry all day long, and this lens is very sharp. It is actually the only non-sony brand lens that I own, and because of this lens, I am considering adding the 70-180/2.8 as a companion with this lens and the 55/1.8za & 35/2.8za for a lightweight travel kit.
