World's First1 16.6x All-in-one Zoom Lens
The 18-300mm F3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD is the world's first1 zoom lens with 16.6x magnification for mirrorless APS-C cameras. The wide zoom range from wide-angle to ultra-telephoto is the outstanding feature of this Lens. Converted to the 35 mm format, this results in a focal length range of 27 mm to 450 mm. With this wide coverage, the Lens is suitable for a wide range of photographic applications from everyday snapshots and atmospheric travel impressions to expressive landscape, nature and macro photography.
Fast and precise VXD autofocus
The autofocus system of the 18-300mm F/3.5-6.3 VC VXD is based on Tamron's proprietary VXD linear motor technology (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive). When it comes to speed and precision, VXD autofocus is one of the leading systems in the class of all-in-one zoom lenses. At every focal length setting, from wide-angle to ultra-telephoto, absolutely precise focusing takes place. Even moving subjects remain reliably in the plane of focus, making the Lens ideal for shooting animals, airplanes, trains and other fast-moving subjects. Since the autofocus works almost silently, the 18-300mm F3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD is also suitable for photo and video shooting when absolute silence is required.
Shortest focusing distance 15 cm and maximum magnification 1:2
With a close-up distance of only 15 cm at 18 mm focal length and a maximum magnification of 1:2, the 18-300mm F3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD has impressively good close-up shooting capabilities compared to other
all-in-one zoom lenses. For close-ups with a shooting distance of 15 cm, the distance between the subject and the front lens is only about 5 mm. This short shooting distance enables, for example, creative macro shots with velvety background blur. As a pioneer in the segment of all-in-one zoom lenses, Tamron thus offers unrivaled creative possibilities for close-up photography.
Highest image quality in this lens class
In terms of imaging performance, the new 18-300mm F3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD achieves a top score in the class of all-in-one zoom lenses for mirrorless system cameras with APS-C sensor. The carefully balanced optical system includes three hybrid aspheres and four LD (Low Dispersion) elements that provide 16.6x magnification with the highest image quality. Over the entire focal length range, resolving power remains consistently high from the optical center to the image edge.
Outstanding VC Image Stabilization
Despite its compact design, the Lens features Tamron's proprietary VC image stabilization. The system effectively compensates for unwanted camera movement in low-light conditions, such as indoors or after sunset. With cameras equipped accordingly, it supplements the internal image stabilization. In addition, the Lens is equipped with an Artificial Intelligence that automatically selects the optimal VC settings in each case when shooting video with focal lengths up to 70 mm.
6. Other Highlights
- Compact design and high ease of use
- User-friendly features (weatherproof construction, fluorine coating,
zoom lock switch)
