TAMRON 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD for Sony E-Mount
Tamron has distilled all the technical resources and know-how accumulated over the past 28 years into the development of all-in-one zoom lenses to create this 28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III R 28D RXD (Model A071), designed exclusively for Sony's E-mount.
The lens features a large maximum aperture of F2.8 at the 28mm wide end, which represents the world's first* for all-in-one zoom lenses and delivers top-notch performance across the zoom range, from the 28mm telephoto to 200mm wide-angle end.
Despite covering a wide range of focal lengths, the lens is lightweight and compact, at 117mm long and 575g in weight.
In addition to everyday portability, the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6's lightweight and compact size makes it especially convenient for travel shots, where users want to avoid the burden of heavy luggage.
Tamron has also taken an uncompromising approach to optical performance, making liberal use of special lens elements – including LD (Low Dispersion) and XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) – to greatly suppress chromatic aberrations and make it possible to achieve high image quality from edge to edge.
With a MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 0.19m. At the wide-angle end and 0.8m. On the telephoto end, the lens also offers high close-up photography performance.
The AF drive system is powered by the RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) stepper motor drive to provide high-speed performance and high accuracy.
The lens also features moisture-resistant construction and fluorine coating for added protection.
When it comes to all-in-one zoom, the innovative 28-200mm F2.8-5.
From wide-angle to telephoto, all-in-one zoom lenses offer a wider range of utilities, from everyday shots to travel and more.
That's why Tamron has strived for a high level of portability in the development of the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6, achieving a compact and lightweight design that's just 117mm long and weighs just 575g.
The small size allows for comfort and convenience, even during extensive travel, without the burden of a heavy camera bag. The 67mm filter size is the same as other lenses in Tamron's line of mirrorless lenses*.
This means that filters such as PL (Polarizer) and lens caps can be used for all models in the series, for greater convenience and less hassle during lens changes.
The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 is the first *1all-in-one zoom lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras to offer a maximum aperture of F2.8.
It maintains excellent performance throughout the zoom range and aperture values of F3.5 at 50mm, F4.5 at 100mm, F5.6 at 200mm.
From landscape photography to portraits and snapshots, the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 delivers finely detailed images in a wide variety of shooting situations.
The generous use of special LD and XLD lens elements (with properties close to those of fluorite) allows you to completely minimize chromatic and other aberrations, while the application of BBAR (Broadband Anti-Reflection) coating offers high anti-glare benefits and reduces ghosting and flare that would likely occur when shooting backlight scenes.
In addition, by leveraging the camera's functionality*2, the lens offers excellent optical performance to match the high-resolution image sensors in the latest cameras, achieving beautiful images that are a cut above the all-in-one zoom lenses of the past.

Outstanding close-up photography performance for an all-in-one zoom lens
The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 offers incredible close-up performance for an all-in-one zoom lens. At the 28mm wide-angle, the MOD is 0.19 m (7.5 in.) With a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.1 and at the 200mm telephoto end, it has a 0.8m MOD
With a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.8 In addition to capturing stunning close-up images, you can enjoy blurred background bokeh using a large F-number and enjoy unique close-up shots that weren't possible with all-in-one zoom lenses until now.
The AF drive on the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 includes an RXD motor unit to help you stay focused on the action.
The RXD uses an actuator to precisely control the rotation angle of the motor, allowing it to directly drive the focusing lens without going through a reduction gear.
A sensor that accurately detects the position of the lens enables precise, high-speed AF, ideal for shooting continuously moving subjects or recording video. And with a smooth and quiet focus system, the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 allows you to shoot stress-free, without worrying about the sound of the unit in a quiet environment.
The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 for Sony E mount covers a wide range of focal lengths in a single lens, starting from 28mm at the wide-angle end to 200mm at the telephoto end.
This versatile range allows for diverse photographic expression, from wide-angle photography of wide landscapes to close-up and compressive compositions in telephoto photography.
The compact and lightweight design makes it easy to carry the lens with ease, anytime, anywhere. The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 is a very convenient lens that can be used for just about any genre, from vast landscapes to city snapshots, desktop photography, and professional-looking portraits.
