Tamron 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III VC VXD (Sony FE) lens

Tamron 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III VC VXD (Sony FE) lens

Tamron already has the highly popular 70-180mm and compact 70-300mm telephoto zooms for Sony cameras. This new lens falls between the two in terms of features and price. The Tamron 50-300mm is a balanced combination of features and is also suitable for full-frame bodies.

• Wider focal length range, also works great as a companion to the 17-50mm
• Focusing close: 50mm focal length means so-called semi-macro, or 1:2 magnification
• More powerful VDX focus motor
• Optical VC image stabilizer

This Tamron 50-300mm is a great option if you don't need F2.8 aperture but are interested in close focus, especially if you're shooting faster subjects where the 70-300mm might be too slow.

Sony's advanced focusing features EyeAF, Direct Manual Focus, Fast Hybrid AF fully work with this lens. In addition, vignetting and distortion caused by the optics are corrected directly in the camera. The lens software can also be updated through the camera.
