Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 for Sony E
Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 for Sony E
The 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 (Model A063) is a luminous standard zoom lens for Sony E full-frame mirrorless cameras. The model follows the successful 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III RXD (Model A036), which revolutionized the standard zoom lens segment. The A063 delivers high resolution and superior image quality through a redesigned optical design, while retaining the compact size of its predecessor. The lens provides exceptional image quality from edge to edge of the frame throughout the zoom range and offers the soft and beautiful bokeh typical of light lenses. In addition, it supports camera functions such as Eye AF, vignetting correction, chromatic aberration and distortion correction in-camera. It has a compact and lightweight design, making it ideal for travel, street photography, everyday carry and spontaneous photo shoots.
Key features of the Tamron 28-75 mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 for Sony E

- Fast Hybrid AF and Eye AF support for perfect focusing of portraits
- Direct Manual Focus (DMF) for full focus control
- Correction of vignetting, chromatic aberration and distortion directly in the Sony camera
- Compact and lightweight design with f/2.8 aperture throughout the zoom range
- AF Assist support for smooth refocusing during movie shooting
- Fluorine coating and moisture resistance for reliable use in the field
Capture every moment with fast and accurate autofocus
The autofocus system uses a linear VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) motor for high speed and precision focusing to infinity, even at high lens apertures. The focusing speed is approximately twice as fast as the first generation 28-75mm F/2.8 (Model A036) and enables reliable tracking of moving subjects, making it ideal for action shots and silent video recording. Linear motor also suppresses noise and vibration during focusing, making it the ideal choice for photography and video in environments where silent shooting is required.
Enhanced macro capabilities with a minimum focusing distance of 0.18 m
The minimum focusing distance of the lens is now only 0.18m at a focal length of 28mm, allowing you to capture impressive close-up images using the perspective of a wide-angle lens. The working distance at this setting is approximately 4.4 cm, with a maximum magnification of 1 : 2,7. At a focal length of 75 mm, the minimum focusing distance is 0.38 m and the magnification is 1 : 4.1, allowing comfortable macro shots with a greater working distance.
TAMRON Lens Utility™ for lens updates and customization
The lens is compatible with the TAMRON Lens Utility application, which allows firmware updates and customization of focusing functions and other parameters directly via computer without the need for a camera (requires TAMRON Connection Cable, sold separately). The A-B Focus function allows you to switch between two preset focus points at the touch of a button. You can also choose between linear and non-linear manual focus modes according to the photographer's preference.
2nd generation design for improved ergonomics and control
The TAMRON lens features improved rubberized zoom and focus rings with a redesigned striped texture for more comfortable and smooth operation. Thanks to modifications to the internal parts and optimised resistance of the zoom ring, operation is even more precise and comfortable. Specially shaped lens body offers enlarged ring diameters while slimming the surrounding parts,resulting in an ergonomic profile ideal for a firm and natural grip. The lens fits perfectly in the hand and makes it easy to handle. The lens' luxurious glossy black surface is scratch-resistant and prevents fingerprints from sticking, ensuring long-lasting aesthetics and durability. The smooth, curved and glossy surface of the "Brand Ring" gives the camera a unique and elegant look that pleases both the eye and the touch.
Uniform filter diameter 67 mm
The lens has a 67mm filter diameter, which is standard among TAMRON's light zoom lenses, allowing filters, caps and accessories to be shared among the lenses in this series and increasing the convenience of carrying multiple lenses.
Ultra-wide angle of view for creative images
The Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 offers the outstanding optical performance and image quality expected from a fixed focal length lens. Thanks to the careful placement of special LD and GM glasses, it effectively suppresses optical defects including chromatic aberration. Tamron's patented BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) coating minimizes glare and veiling when shooting against the sun. Combined with the camera body features*, it provides high resolution across the entire image area and takes maximum advantage of the latest high-resolution cameras. Whether you're shooting street scenes, landscapes or architecture, the lens will help you fulfil your creative ambitions and capture sharp, colourful and impressive images. *When the lens correction function in the camera body is turned on.
BBAR layer and circular screen
The BBAR coating minimizes reflections on the lens surface, suppressing unwanted veils and flare and ensuring sharp, high-contrast images with high quality. The aperture of the Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 is designed to maintain a smooth, circular shape even when stopped down two stops from full aperture. This creates a softly blurred background with a nice bokeh.
GM aspherical elements to minimize distortion and sharpness to the corners and LD elements to reduce chromatic aberration
The GM aspherical elements effectively correct imaging defects that are common in ultra-wide angle lenses, especially distortion and loss of sharpness at the edges of the image. Thanks to glass moulding technology, it is possible to produce members with shapes that cannot be achieved by conventional methods, which contributes to higher image quality. LD members help reduce chromatic aberration, which reduces image sharpness. Glass with a low dispersion index has less tendency to split the light rays into a spectrum of colours, which allows effective compensation for longitudinal and lateral chromatic aberration, which is a problem especially with wide-angle and telephoto lenses.
Fluorine coating to repel water and grease
The fluorine coating with high resistance and repellency to water and grease easily cleans the lens surface and protects it from dirt, dust, moisture and fingerprints, ensuring long-term protection for your important lenses. For better protection when shooting outdoors, the Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 is also equipped with a moisture seal. *
*The construction is moisture-resistant, but does not provide complete watertightness.
