A first-of-its kind zoom lens
Just when photographers and videographers thought they’d seen it all, Tamron introduced this innovative lens that boasts a jaw-dropping 16.6x all-in-one zoom. The versatility means all videographers and photographers will benefit from the lens — from landscape and portraits to weddings and wildlife — and just about every creative segment in between. Plus, with an f/3.5-6.3 aperture, creators can deliver dazzling, shallow-depth-of-field results, whether it’s blurred backgrounds or glowing bokeh.
Stunning image quality with sharp AF
A 16.6x zoom lens is nothing without high-quality images. That’s where Tamron’s legacy of stunning and rich resolution comes into play. This lens boasts the best image quality in its class. The handy vibration compression (VC) ensures images are shake-free and sharp, even when using the telephoto focal lengths. Plus, with an autofocus system that leverages Tamron’s autofocus features, photographers can rest assured their images will be crystal-clear and focused.
A portable lens for traveling creators
The Tamron 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3 lens is a rare all-in-one option. This means travelers don’t have to tote three to four lenses around the world. They can carry this one for everything from wide-angle shots like landscapes to ultra-zoom frames like wildlife or distant skyscrapers. The built-in moisture-resistant construction ensures this lens can hold up to the elements too.
The Tamron 18-300mm lens will be available in fall 2021 for Sony E-mount cameras and FUJIFILM X-Mount cameras.
