The Tamron 28-75mm F2.8 Di III VXD G2 is compact and easy to use yet has excellent optical performance and is compatible with the latest Nikon Z cameras with increasingly high pixel resolution. The AF drive uses a linear motor focus mechanism VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) that is fast, highly accurate, and quiet. The lens also excels at close-up shooting, achieving an MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 0.18m at the wide end and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.7. Additionally, the lens design takes operability into consideration by including a coating with exceptional scratch resistance on the barrel of the lens and a rubber focusing ring for a comfortable, secure grip among other features.
Best image quality in the standard zoom lens class
This zoom lens leverages the latest design expertise and comprises an optical construction with 17 elements in 15 groups. Two optimally arranged LD (Low Dispersion) and GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) lens elements control optical aberrations to the highest degree. The lens provides high-resolution performance from edge-to-edge and corner-to-corner over the entire zoom range, even at wide open aperture. In addition, the soft, beautiful, round bokeh that can be achieved with a fast-aperture lens adds a distinctive dimension, especially to portraits. The overall compact size and high performance can be used advantageously with top-class, ultra-high-resolution mirrorless cameras.
Fast, quiet VXD linear motor for high-speed and high-precision autofocus
The AF drive system employs Tamron’s VXD linear motor focus mechanism.

The lens delivers excellent focus tracking of moving objects, so you are always ready for fast action. Additionally, the focus motor is quiet, so it's ideal for shooting both still images and video in situations that demand low noise.

With a size that's easy to carry and a light weight that’s well-suited for handheld shooting for extended periods, the 28-75mm F2.8 G2 will surely become your favourite zoom for travel, street shooting, everyday carry, and spontaneous photo opportunities.
MOD of 0.18m (7.1in) at the wide end and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.7
The 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 features an MOD of 0.18m at the wide end. The working distance shrinks to around 4.4cm when used at MOD. Because the maximum magnification ratio is 1:2.7, you can get close to your subject for wide macrophotography, enabling powerful visualimpact with the subject positioned large in the frame while keeping a wide view of the background. Perfect for creative close-up photography.
Enhanced overall lens design for user-friendly operation
Every individual part of the lens has been carefully scrutinized, right down to the fine details, resulting in an enhanced design that optimizes both operability and ergonomics. The surface of the Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 exterior is glossy black. Improved abrasion resistance makes the lens barrel harder to scratch and resists fingerprints. Additionally, the grip performance has been improved. The smoothly curved, elegant surface of the brand ring creates a dignified appearance with a design that signifies functional beauty and high quality.
Moisture-Resistant Construction and Fluorine Coating provide extra protection
Tamron's moisture resistant construction provides a protective barrier that helps prevent the lens from being influenced by moisture or rain. In addition, Tamron's Fluorine Coating on the front lens element repels water and oil, making it easier to wipe away smudges, fingerprints and dirt, and preventing condensation on the lens surface. Together, these features enhance the durability and usability of the lens in tough conditions.
