The Tamron 17-50mm f/4 Di III VXD Lens is specially designed for Sony E-Mount mirrorless cameras. Well suited for both still as well as video applications with a unique focal length range including an ultra-wide 17mm perfect for broad fields of view as well as interior, architectural subjects, and even vlogging at arm’s length. Extended to the 50mm the Tamron 17-50mm f/4 Di III VXD Lens offers normal length field of view for portraiture and perspective everyday applications.
A close minimum focusing distance of 19cm enables you to get up close to a subject. You will also be offered a constant f/4 maximum aperture throughout the zoom range making it ideal for walk-around applications.
The Tamron 17-50mm f/4 Di III VXD Lens is well suited for both video or still applications due to the employment of a VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor providing quick, fast and accurate autofocus performance.
This lens also features internal zoom and internal focus design. This means the Tamron 17-50mm f/4 Di III VXD Lens maintains its length, also assisting it in maintaining a lightweight design and making it easier to balance and use on a gimbal.
Additionally, in terms of physical design, the Tamron 17-50mm f/4 Di III VXD Lens has a moisture-resistant design with a front fluorine coating that repels water, oil, dust and dirt from the glass elements making it easier to clean. It uses 67mm filters, just like most other Tamron mirrorless lenses, and it’s also compatible with the Tamron Lens Utility software for fine-tuning lens performance to suit your needs.
