TAMRON 28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD
New, innovative all-in-one lens that does it all.
All of Tamron’s technical know-how regarding all-in-one zoom lenses has been distilled to create this 28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD (Model A071). The lens has a large maximum aperture of F2.8 at 28mm, a world’s first* for all-in-one zoom lenses, and delivers high-level performance from 28mm wide-angle to 200mm telephoto. Although covering a wide range of focal lengths, the lens is lightweight and compact. Tamron has taken an uncompromising approach to optical performance, making liberal use of special lens elements—including LD (Low Dispersion) and XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) lens elements—to greatly suppress chromatic aberrations, making it possible to achieve high image quality from edge to edge. This innovative all-in-one zoom lens vividly captures virtually all possible scenes, from landscape photography to portrait photos and snapshots.
Versatile lens does it all!
The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 covers an expansive range of focal lengths from 28mm to 200mm. This empowers diverse photographic expression, from wide-angle shooting of sweeping landscapes to close-up and compressive compositions at telephoto. The compact design measures 117mm (4.6 in) and a weighs 575g (20.3 oz) so it’s easy to carry anytime, anywhere.
Close-up performance that’s astonishing for an all-in-one zoom lens
At 28mm, the MOD (Minimum Object Distance) is 0.19m (7.5 in) with a magnification ratio of 1:3.1; at 200mm the MOD is 0.8m (31.5 in) with a magnification ratio of 1:3.8. Capture stunning close-up images and leverage the bokeh utilizing a large F-number and enjoy unique close-ups that were not possible with all-in-one zoom lenses until now.
Tamron offers a unified system of lenses with 67mm filter size
Combine the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 with other members of Tamron’s lineup of 67mm filter size lenses and cover an even wider range of scenes. The shared 67mm filter size enables efficiency in filter use; the same polarizer filters, or other filters, and lens caps can be shared between all models.
Additional product features
Zoom Lock (ZL) Mechanism
Zoom Lock – The ZL mechanism prevents unwanted extension of the tube during transport. The lock, which is activated by a switch, protects the lens from damage and at the same time guarantees that it is quickly ready for use.
ASL
Aspherical Lens – Aspherical lenses correct spherical aberrations (focus errors) in zoom lenses. They can replace several other optical elements without loss of quality, contributing to a more compact lens design.
FLR
Fluorine Coating – Fluorine Coating protects the front lens from contamination. It prevents oil and water droplets from sticking to the surface. Fingerprints and dirt are easier to remove.
Internal Focusing (IF) System
Internal Focus – Internal focusing prevents the barrel from extending and rotating during focusing. The lens is easier to handle and is suitable for use with polarising or gradation filters.
LD (Low Dispersion)
Low Dispersion – LD elements have particularly low colour dispersion index. They reduce chromatic aberrations that appear as colour fringes on the contrast edges and reduce image sharpness.
XLD (Extra Low Dispersion) Glass
Extra-Low Dispersion – XLD elements have particularly low colour dispersion index. They reduce chromatic aberrations that appear as colour fringes on the contrast edges and reduce image sharpness.
MR
Moisture Resistant Construction – The lens is splash-resistant. All critical areas have special seals. Lenses with this feature are ideal for outdoor use in bad weather.
RXD (Rapid eXtra silent Drive)
Rapid Extra-Silent Drive – RXD autofocus is highly responsive, making it ideal for shooting stills and video of subjects in motion. A sensor constantly detects the current focus setting, allowing the continuous autofocus (AF-C) to precisely target the rotation angle required for focus at lightning speed.
