The Tamron 18-300mm F/3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD is a compact, lightweight and versatile zoom lens for Sony E-mount cameras and is the world’s first 16.6x all-in-one zoom lens for APS-C mirrorless cameras. It covers a wide zoom range from approximately 27mm to 450mm in 35mm equivalent focal length. Its AF drive system uses Tamron’s VXD linear motor focus mechanism for quietness and fast performance. The lens includes special lens elements arranged precisely to maintain high resolution performance from edge-to-edge and provide high image quality. With a Minimum Object Distance of 15cm at the 18mm wide end and a remarkable maximum magnification ratio of 1:2, this lens performs astonishingly well when shooting up close. The lens is equipped with TAMRON's proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) mechanism, effectively reducing image blur caused by camera shake in low-light conditions or in the ultra-telephoto range at slower shutter speeds. It is compatible with many camera-specific features and functions, including Fast Hybrid AF and Eye AF. Fast and precise AF The 18-300mm F3.5-6.3 VC VXD utilizes TAMRON's VXD linear motor focus mechanism. It achieves AF speed and precision that stand among the best of all all-in-one zoom lenses. Throughout its range, from wide-angle to ultra-telephoto, it provides precise AF shooting. Excellent when tracking a moving subject in focus, it is ideal when photographing animals, aircraft, railways and other moving subjects. It’s extremely quiet, and therefore perfectly suited for both still and video shooting in conditions that demand silent operation. Outstanding VC stabilisation Despite its compact size, the lens is equipped with TAMRON's VC mechanism. With or without image stabilization in the camera body, the VC included in this lens effectively mitigates camera shake that is likely to occur in low-light conditions indoors and at night. Furthermore, using AI technologies, the lens will choose the compensation characteristic for videography at focal lengths of 70mm or less. High quality optics To achieve a zoom ratio of 16.6x while ensuring high image quality, the lens features a well-balanced arrangement of three hybrid aspherical elements and four LD (Low Dispersion) lens elements to effectively suppress optical aberrations. Throughout the zoom range, it maintains high resolving power from the centre to the corners. Minimum Object Distance of 15cm and maximum magnification ratio of 1:2 With an MOD of 15cm at the 18mm wide end and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2, the 18-300mm F3.5-6.3 VC VXD performs amazingly well when shooting up close compared to other all-in-one zoom lenses3. It enables users to enjoy creative macro photography with highly blurred backgrounds, a feature unique to macro photography. As a pioneer in all-in-one zoom lenses, TAMRON demonstrates unmatched originality in close-up shots. Moisture-resistant construction and Fluorine Coating This lens has Tamron's moisture-resistant construction to protect the moving parts of the lens against inclement weather conditions. The Fluorine coating on the front element also makes the lens repel water & oil and this makes it very easy to clean too. When walking or with the lens packed for travelling the Zoom Lock keeps the lens in the closed position to prevent the barrel from extending accidentally. Model B061
