FEATURES

BBAR-G2 COATING

TAMRON has long been an innovator of coating technologies that prevent ghosting and flare. Second-generation BBAR-G2 Coating is a groundbreaking advancement that provides vastly improved performance compared to the original BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating.

The coating corrects for ghosting and flare to an unprecedented extent and renders fine subject detail with true clarity and stunning contrast even under backlit conditions.

TAMRON LENS UTILITY™

The 35-150mm F2-2.8 zoom is compatible with the dedicated TAMRON Lens Utility software for computers and devices with Android™ [1] OS developed in-house by TAMRON[2]. This software empowers users to easily update the lens to the latest firmware[3] without going through the camera, and also includes functions to support focusing operations and other actions when shooting still images or video.

By utilizing a wide range of functions, users can expand the breadth of expression in still images and video. For example, A-B Focus allows users to limit focusing to two pre-set focus points, shifting focus from one subject to another with just a click of the Focus Set Button. Users can also choose between Linear and Non-linear, which affects how the focus shifts during manual focusing.

FLUORINE COATING

The front surface of the lens element is coated with a protective fluorine compound that is water- and oil-repellent. The lens surface is easier to wipe clean and is less vulnerable to the damaging effects of dirt, dust, moisture and fingerprints.

LENS OVERVIEW

TAMRON 35-150MM F/2-2.8 DI III VXD LENS FOR FULL-FRAME MIRRORLESS OFFERS A VERSATILE ZOOM RANGE AND BREATHTAKING IMAGE QUALITY

“The TAMRON 35-150mm F/2-2.8 Di III VXD (Model A058) is a groundbreaking zoom lens designed to elevate your artistry while on the move. Covering a wide range from 35mm wide-angle to 150mm telephoto, this lens is the first of its kind* to offer an F/2 aperture at the wide-angle end for full-frame mirrorless cameras.

Whether you’re shooting wide-angle vistas, intimate portraits, or bustling city scenes, the 35-150mm F/2-2.8, the lens’s versatility makes it a must-have for portrait photographers and travel enthusiasts alike, allowing you to clearly capture the scenes as you envision them with its overwhelming resolving power and amazing flexibility.

CREATE BEAUTIFUL, SOFT BOKEH WITH THE LARGE, BEST-IN-CLASS F2-2.8 APERTURE

The 35-150mm F2-2.8 features an optimal combination of four LD (Low Dispersion) lens elements that subdue aberrations, and three extraordinary GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) lens elements. Together they assure high optical performance that enhances your ability to capture all the incredible scenery you encounter while traveling. TAMRON has achieved a maximum aperture of F2 at the wide-angle end and F2.8 at the telephoto end, enabling you to achieve beautiful, soft bokeh across the entire zoom range.

The lens also makes it possible to capture subjects clearly in more situations. The lens’s fast maximum aperture helps you control camera movement by permitting a higher shutter speed, or when trying to reduce noise by choosing a low ISO. Even when used with the latest mirrorless cameras that require high resolution performance, images are sharp edge-to-edge and from center to every corner, across the entire frame of the photo.

THE 35-150MM F2-2.8 (MODEL A058) A SINGLE LENS THAT REPLACES ALL

This zoom lens covers everything from the 35mm wide angle to 150mm telephoto, including all the commonly used focal lengths, so it’s very handy for travel because it can replace several single lenses. Seamlessly take photos without switching lenses in various situations.

Change to an 85mm semi-telephoto angle of view, focus on a faraway subject at 150mm, and make full use of the 35mm and 50mm focal lengths. Change composition without changing your distance from the subject. You can use just this one lens to capture a wide range of photos while traveling, from landscapes to snapshots and portraits. Our design goal was portability and compact design while achieving a spectacular specification of F2-2.8 with a 4.3x zoom ratio.

CAPTURE SHARP, CRISP IMAGES WITH HIGH SPEED AND HIGH PRECISION AUTOFOCUS

The autofocus drive employs the VXD linear motor focus mechanism. You can easily achieve focus from the MOD (Minimum Object Distance) to infinity, even at the maximum F2 aperture, thanks to the speed and precision of this highly accurate autofocus system.

Focus tracking is also extremely precise so you can capture sudden movements by your subject. The linear motor also suppresses drive noise and vibrations during focusing, making it ideal for shooting both still photos and video in environments that demand quietness.

ACHIEVE STELLAR CLOSE-UP PHOTOS

The 35-150mm F2-2.8 boasts the ability to take closeup photographs extremely close to the subject. At the 35mm wide-angle end, the MOD is 13″ (0.33m), achieving a maximum magnification ratio of 1:5.7.

To further accentuate the subject and separate it visually from its surroundings you can create a greatly blurred background using the large F2-2.8 maximum aperture. You can also take unique and impressive photos, including overhead shots of food and close-ups of parts of small objects, flowers, or other subject details.

TAMRON LENS UTILITY EXPANDS THE POSSIBILITIES OF STILL PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEO SHOOTING

The 35-150mm F2-2.8* zoom is compatible with TAMRON Lens Utility™ software, the dedicated application available in Mobile versions for iOS ¹ and Android™ OS ² and also for Mac/PC desktop/laptops ³. Without needing special video or photo equipment, users can assign practical functions ⁴ to the lens, enhancing the shooting experience. Firmware updates are available via the PC version ⁵.
