Lightweight. Luminous. Ready to Explore.
The Tamron 70-180mm f/2.8 Di III RXD lens brings together the reach of a telephoto zoom with the freedom of a compact, travel-friendly design—offering a fast f/2.8 constant aperture in a package that's surprisingly small, remarkably sharp, and genuinely fun to use.
Tailored specifically for Sony full-frame mirrorless cameras, this lens delivers crisp edge-to-edge performance with minimal distortion and pleasing background blur. Whether you're chasing golden-hour portraits, shooting from the sidelines, or capturing everyday moments with cinematic depth, the 70-180mm f/2.8 makes it all feel effortless.
At the heart of the lens is a responsive RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) autofocus motor that’s fast, accurate, and whisper-quiet—perfect for both stills and video. The close focusing distance of just 33.5 inches (at 70mm) opens creative doors, giving you semi-macro versatility right in your telephoto glass.
Unlike heavier pro zooms, the Tamron 70-180mm f/2.8 is designed with mobility in mind. Weighing in at just 1.8 lbs (810g), it's a comfortable all-day carry—ideal for hikers, travelers, or anyone who values speed without bulk. Its intuitive feel, moisture-resistant construction, and internal zoom mechanism also make it a strong companion in unpredictable conditions.
