Designed for full-frame cameras, this lens spans a useful short-telephoto to mid-telephoto range and is characterised by its f\/2.8 maximum aperture to suit working in available light conditions and for controlling depth of field. A sophisticated optical design includes a series of low dispersion and aspherical elements to correct a variety of aberrations and a BBAR-G2 coating helps to reduce flare and ghosting for high contrast and colour accuracy. Additionally, a floating elements system is used to ensure consistent image quality throughout the focusing range, from 2.8' to infinity. Autofocus is handled by a pair of VXD linear motor units, which deliver notably fast, accurate, and quiet focusing performance, and full-time manual focus control is also available. Suiting this lens's use in inclement weather conditions, it also features a moisture-resistant construction along with a fluorine-coated front element to protect against fingerprints and smudging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVersatile telephoto zoom is designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras, however can also be used with APS-C models where it will provide a 105-270mm equivalent focal length range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBright constant f\/2.8 maximum aperture affords consistent brightness throughout the zoom range and offers improved control over depth of field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSix low dispersion elements, including both XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) and LD (Low Dispersion) designs, greatly reduce colour fringing and chromatic aberrations throughout the zoom range in order to realise improved clarity and colour accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree aspherical elements, including both glass-molded and hybrid types, help to reduce spherical aberrations and distortion for high sharpness and accurate rendering throughout the zoom range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection Generation 2) Coating has been applied to individual elements in order to suppress internal reflections, flare, and ghosting to achieve greater contrast and colour fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motors deliver impressively quiet, quick, and precise focusing performance to suit both stills and video applications. This focusing system offers a minimum focusing distance of 2.8' at all focal lengths, and a 1:4.6 maximum magnification at the 180mm focal length for working with close-up subjects. Full-time manual focus override is also possible, and it is compatible with Sony's Direct Manual Focus function or fine-tuned manual control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo VXD units work in conjunction with a floating elements system to maintain consistent image quality throughout the focusing range.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen working with manual focus at the 70mm focal length position, it is possible to focus as closely as 10.6\" with a 1:2 maximum magnification ratio, however peripheral image quality may be reduced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA moisture-resistant construction benefits this lens' use in inclement conditions, and a fluorine coating has also been applied to the front lens element to protect against dust, dirt, and smearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZoom Lock switch prevents unwanted barrel extension during transportation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat in the Box:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTamron 70-180mm f\/2.8 Di III VXD Lens for Sony E\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTamron SP Front Lens Cap (67mm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRear Lens Cap\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLens Hood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tamron","offers":[{"title":"Sony E","offer_id":47101599940775,"sku":"GC47-TM-A065SF","price":1715.57,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Nikon Z","offer_id":47101599973543,"sku":"GC47-TM-A065Z","price":2448.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4083\/0375\/files\/TM-A065-SF-1.jpg?v=1696824584","url":"https:\/\/www.georges.com.au\/products\/tamron-70-180mm-f-2-8-di-iii-g2-vxd-lens","provider":"Georges Cameras","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
