Tamron 150-500mm F/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD (Nikon Z) (A057)

The dynamic "Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VXD" for "Sony E-mount" mirrorless cameras is a compact and versatile super telephoto lens that is perfect for shooting a variety of subjects, from landscapes and birds to sports and wildlife photography. . This lens is optimized for full-frame performance and can also be used on APS-C cameras with an equivalent focal length range of 225-750mm.

The optical design consists of 25 elements in 16 groups and uses special lens elements and hybrid aspherical lens elements to control chromatic aberrations. Each element is coated with BBAR-G2 to reduce flare and ghosting for high contrast and color accuracy. The VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor focus mechanism provides extremely fast and highly precise movement and exceptionally responsive operation, and is compatible with Sony Hybrid AF and Eye AF functions on enabled cameras. A minimum object distance of 23.6 inches at the 150mm end of the zoom range ensures dynamic close-up images and increases the overall usability of the lens.

VC image stabilization makes handheld shooting easier at the 500mm ultra-telephoto range, while the Arca-type compatible rotating tripod mount has integrated strap attachment points for secure and supportive outdoor shooting. Designed and manufactured with a moisture-resistant construction for use in harsh conditions, as well as a fluorine coating on the front lens element to protect against dust, dirt and smudges.

VC image stabilization makes handheld shooting easier at the 500mm ultra-telephoto lens, with three modes: standard, panorama, and frame priority.

XLD (Extra-low Dispersion), LD (Low Dispersion) and GM (Glass-shaped Aspherical) elements greatly reduce colour fringing, chromatic aberrations and image distortion throughout the zoom range for improved clarity and colour accuracy.

BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) coating has been applied to lens elements to suppress internal reflections, flare, and ghosting for greater contrast and color accuracy.

Rotating Arca-type tripod mount with built-in strap attachment loops.

Toggle switches for improved control, as well as a Flex Zoom Lock mechanism that allows you to maintain the zoom position.

The included lens hood is protected by a flexible, shock-absorbing front edge to prevent cracks and damage.

A small 75° arc zoom ring allows you to quickly adjust to the desired focal length with minimal movement.
