Product Description
TAMRON 70-180mm F/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2 Lens (A065)
The world's smallest and lightest F2.8 tele-zoom lens fits comfortably in your hand
The 70-180mm F/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2 (Model A065) is the "G2" 2nd-generation successor to the 70-180mm F/2.8 Di III VXD (Model A056), the new model keeps its fast F2.8 aperture, while being newly equipped with TAMRON's proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) and offering greatly improved close-up capability.
Even with these new features, the lens is the world's smallest size and lightest weight for its class (156.5mm / 6.2in long at wide 70mm end) and weighs just 855g / 30.2oz as a result of its size-minimizing 180mm focal length at the tele end2 versus bulkier 70-200mm lenses.
The amazing performance of the fast F2.8 aperture captures the world in vivid detail
This new model has an optical construction of 20 elements in 15 groups. The precision combination of multiple special lens elements including an XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion), three LD (Low Dispersion), two GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) and one hybrid aspherical lens element further enhances the ability to correct for chromatic and various other aberrations.
Additionally, the BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection Generation 2) Coating, TAMRON's next-generation technology, suppresses ghosting and flare to enable the crisp and clear rendition of images, and assures high resolving power that captures subjects in minute detail.
Capture your vision with fast and precise AF and improved tracking performance
The AF drive of the 70-180mm F2.8 G2 continues to employ the VXD (Voice-coil extreme-torque Drive) linear motor focus mechanism that was used for the first time in the 1st-generation Model A056, inheriting the quality and performance it provides. This AF system faithfully fulfils the intentions of the photographer to a high degree of precision in steps of 0.005mm, less than one-tenth the width of a human hair.
In addition, the quietness offered by the linear motor system provides nearly silent performance when using the lens in conditions where noise needs to be minimized.
TAMRON's proprietary VC mechanism empowers mobility
The 70-180mm F2.8 G2 is equipped with TAMRON's proprietary VC mechanism. This suppresses camera shake that tends to occur when shooting at the telephoto end or during close focusing, thereby enabling stable shooting results. It's also highly effective when shooting in low-light conditions that often lead to camera shake, like evening and night scenarios or dimly lit indoor scenes.
Moreover, using Al technologies, the lens chooses the appropriate compensation characteristics for videography at focal lengths of 100mm or less to powerfully support the inherent optical performance of the lens.
MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 0.3m (11.8in) opens new possibilities
By optimizing the optical design, shooting at close distances that were possible only during manual focusing with the 1st-generation model is now possible when using autofocus with the 2nd-generation 70-180mm F2.8 G2. This expands the possibilities for expression with a single lens, allowing you to take another step forward or utilize soft, beautiful bokeh in your shots.
In addition, with an outstanding maximum magnification ratio at the 70mm end of 1:2.6 and 1:4.7 at the 180mm end, you can create unique and powerful compositions that capture a subject in extreme detail.
Compatible with TAMRON Lens Utility™ software
The 70-180mm F2.8 G2 is compatible with the dedicated TAMRON Lens Utility software (for PC and Android™ 3 OS) that was developed in-house by TAMRON4. TAMRON Lens Utility lets users change lens settings, assign camera body functions, and update to the latest firmware5 when necessary. In addition, when using the mobile version, functions unique to the mobile version can be operated remotely without touching the lens. Users may customize functions for various still photography and videography shooting styles, thereby providing a more personalized and fulfilling shooting experience.
