Tamron Unveils Revolutionary 25-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III VXD G2 Lens
Leading optical equipment manufacturer, Tamron Co., Ltd., headquartered in Saitama City, Japan, has announced the upcoming release of a new high magnification zoom lens designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras featuring the Sony E mount. The newly developed lens, known as the "25-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III VXD G2 (Model A075)", aims to surpass its predecessor, the well-received "28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD (Model A071)".
Overview of the New Lens
As part of its 75th anniversary, Tamron introduces the 25-200mm F/2.8-5.6 G2. This new lens marks a significant enhancement in the high magnification zoom lens segment, as it reduces the wide-angle end from 28mm to 25mm while maintaining the telephoto end at 200mm. Despite its compact size, the lens is designed to deliver high-quality imaging performance.
One of the standout features of this lens is the advanced VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) autofocus system. This innovative design allows for faster autofocus speeds and improved tracking accuracy, making it an excellent choice for capturing fast-moving subjects like sports and pets.
Additionally, with a maximum magnification of 1:1.9 at the wide-angle end, photographers can enjoy half-macro capabilities, allowing for stunning close-up shots.
