• VXD autofocus guarantees fast, precise and quiet focusing
• Spectacular optical performance for inspiring creativity
• Compact and lightweight design
• Minimum object distance of 0.18m. Maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.7
• Lens function customization and firmware update with TAMRON Lens Utility
• Improved optical performance compared to 1st-generation

The 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 (model A063) is a fast standard zoom lens for mirrorless full format system cameras from Sony and the successor to the popular 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III RXD (model A036). A high resolution and an outstanding image quality are among its most important innovations.

The new lens has a revised optical system, but is just as compact as the previous model. The optical structure includes LD (Low Dispersion) and GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) lens elements to minimize aberrations. The imaging performance is very high at every focal length and over the entire image area. When the aperture is open, there is a beautiful bokeh effect. With these and many other innovations, the 28- 75mm F/2.8 G2 is the first choice for everyone who wants to maximize their creativity.

High image quality and resolving power while maintaining a compact, lightweight design

It was no easy task to improve upon the optical performance of the 1st-generation Model A036, which had an established reputation for its outstanding image quality. TAMRON redesigned the optical system of the 28-75mm F2.8 G2 from the ground up, thereby attaining the stunning performance befitting a new fast-aperture zoom lens.

The 28-75mm F2.8 G2 retains the same lightweight, compact design as its predecessor while delivering sharp rendering all the way to the corners of images, across the entire zoom range. Check the MTF charts and actual images to see how the Model A063 differs from the 1st-generation model.

MOD of 0.18m at wide end and maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.7.

The Minimum Object Distance (MOD) of 0.19m (7.5 in) at the wide-end and maximum magnification ratio of 1: 2.9 that were achieved by the 1st-generation Model A036 have been well received because they allow users to enjoy close-up photography that emphasizes the perspective unique to wide-angle lenses.

The 28-75mm F2.8 G2 achieves an MOD of 0.18m (7.1 in) at the wide-end, 1cm (0.4 in) closer than the Model A036, with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.7. This allows users to get even closer to the subject for wide macro photography, enabling powerful visual impact with the subject large while keeping a wide view of the background in frame.

Scratch and fingerprint resistant, plus improved operability and texture

The all-new 28-75mm F2.8 G2 features a fresh, new design. Certain internal parts of the zoom ring and focus ring have been enhanced, resulting in smoother overall operability. The girth of the lens barrel has been slimmed down to give the lens a contoured profile that makes it easier to grip. This creates a comfortable shape that fits snugly and naturally in the hand. Plus, the surface of the lens exterior is shiny black, much glossier than previous models. Improved abrasion resistance makes the lens barrel harder to scratch and more resistant to fingerprints, too. Take a look at the design differences between the Model A036 and the Model A063 G2.

Twice as fast: Uses high-speed, high-precision VXD linear motor focus mechanism

The AF drive system is equipped with VXD linear motor focus mechanism. The AF speed marks approximately twice as fast as the 1st-generation Model A036. With reliable, speedy focusing from the MOD to infinity and extremely good focus tracking, you are ready for those important moments even when photographing fast-moving subjects.

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.
