■■■Tamron Online Store Limited 2 Year Warranty (1 year manufacturer warranty+1 year online store warranty) ■■■ 150-500mm F/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD (Model A057) is an extremely compact, high-quality Sony E-mount lens that overturns common sense of super telephoto zooms up until now. Covers a focal length of 150-500mm (equivalent to 225-750mm in 35mm format conversion). While achieving a telephoto end of 500 mm, it is possible to easily perform super telephoto shooting by making it smaller. We are particular about image quality, and special glass materials such as composite aspherical lenses thoroughly suppress the occurrence of various aberrations. It is also equipped with a high speed and high accuracy linear motor focus mechanism VXD (Voice-coil Extreme-Torque Drive) and an image stabilization mechanism VC (Vibration Compensation), so you won't miss any moment. Additionally, in addition to achieving a minimum shooting distance of 0.6 m at the wide-angle end, ease of use has also been improved, such as adopting a tripod with a strap hole, a simple splash-proof structure that supports outdoor photography, and an antifouling coat. This is one that allows you to freely aim for the one shot you want to take, from landscapes to sports to wild animals. Please enjoy the impressive world of super telephoto. *Focal length when using a camera equipped with a 35mm full-size sensor: 150-500mm, focal length when using a camera equipped with an APS-C sensor: 35mm in combination with a 225-750mm equivalent mirrorless single-lens camera, we have pursued a sense of size that makes it easy to enjoy super telephoto shooting. The length is 209.6 mm, the maximum diameter is φ93 mm, and the length is about 283 mm even when extended to the telephoto end, making it an extremely compact size. Also, since the zoom ring rotation angle is as small as 75°, it is possible to quickly adjust to the target angle of view with minimal movement. The Model A057 is a high resolution lens with excellent depiction performance across the entire zoom range while covering a wide range of focal lengths. The lens configuration is 25 elements in 16 groups. Special glass XLD (Extra Low Dispersion) lenses, LD (Low Dispersion: Abnormally Low Dispersion) lenses, and composite aspherical lenses are effectively arranged to achieve clear images with suppressed chromatic aberrations. Furthermore, a BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection Generation 2) coating is used to suppress ghosts and flares that tend to occur when shooting in backlight. Various subjects, such as aircraft, wild birds, and railways, are delicately drawn with soft and beautiful bokeh. The AF drive is equipped with a linear motor focus mechanism VXD. The high-speed and high-accuracy operation allows you to focus comfortably. It also has high focus followability and is quick to handle a variety of shooting. Since vibrations are less likely to occur during focus, it is ideal for shooting still images and shooting videos in environments where quietness is required. When shooting in the super telephoto range, even minute vibrations can lead to blurred images. Therefore, this lens supports more stable image creation by installing an image stabilization mechanism VC. Of course, it demonstrates its power not only for handheld shooting without using a tripod, but also for shooting scenes with low light levels, such as evening scenes and indoors. In addition, it is equipped with a switch to switch between 3 correction modes (mode 1: normal, mode 2: streaming only, mode 3: focus on framing), including a dedicated streaming mode, and you can select the optimal image stabilization mode according to shooting conditions and preferences. The shortest shooting distance of the Model A057 is 0.6 m at the wide-angle end and 1.8 m at the telephoto end. Furthermore, the maximum shooting magnification at the wide-angle end is 1:3.1, which demonstrates high close-up shooting capability as a super telephoto zoom. In addition to being able to capture a dynamic image by getting close to the subject, it is also possible to perform telemacro photography that maintains an appropriate distance from the subject, which cannot be achieved with conventional super telephoto zooms. You can enjoy a wide range of scenes, from plants to insects to taking table photos.
