* Length and weight are based on figures for the Nikon-mount lens.
*1: Length is the distance between the front tip of the lens and the mount face.
*2: This circular diaphragm retains a nearly circular shape even at two stops down from its maximum aperture.
*3: The Sony mount model does not include VC, since the bodies of Sony DSLR cameras include built-in image
stabilization functionality.

Zoom Lens Evolution
Continues Announcing An Exceptional New Lens
For Full-Frame DSLRs
Focal Length: 28mm
Focal Length: 300mm
State-of-the-art optical design technology
delivers superior image quality
The advanced optical construction of this lens
includes four elements of LD (Low Dispersion)
glass, three Molded-Glass Aspherical elements,
one Hybrid Aspherical element, one XR (Extra
Refractive Index) glass element, and one element
of UXR (Ultra-Extra Refractive Index) glass, which
has greater refractive index than XR. The full use of
specialized glass elements in its design contributes
to making this outstanding lens as compact and
lightweight as possible, while minimizing
aberrations, resulting in superior image quality.
PZD (Piezo Drive) delivers faster, quieter
autofocus action
The PZD (Piezo Drive) provides noticeably faster,
quieter autofocus action, allowing users to capture
spontaneous moments in crisp images and to
continue to shoot even when quiet operation is
required. The full-time manual focus system
enables fine focus adjustments to be made during
autofocus shooting without having to change the
focus mode beforehand.
Circular diaphragm facilitates achieving
spectacular blur effects
Using a nearly circular diaphragm makes it easy
for users to achieve spectacular background blur
effects that enable creative use of depth of field.
Upgraded cosmetic design
Elegant tungsten silver brand ring
Employing a sophisticated linear pattern rubber
grip on the zoom and focus rings and an elegant
tungsten silver brand ring, this newly-designed
model accentuates its visceral presence with
understated elegance and class.
Moisture-resistant construction for
outdoor shooting
Moisture-resistant
construction helps
prevent moisture from
penetrating the lens.
Focus on portability
The lens is now even smaller and lighter
In addition to state-of-the-art optical design that
facilitates downsizing of the lens body, the
mechanical design, which incorporates a highly
sophisticated multi-stack-cam layout that takes
up far less space, and PZD (Piezo Drive), an
autofocus drive system with a simpler, more
compact structure, has made it possible to
reduce the overall dimensions of this lens.
Advanced anti-reflection coating
The application of BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection)
coatings for suppressing reflections on lens element
surfaces minimizes unwanted flare and ghosting to
deliver sharp, crisp, high-contrast images.
VC (Vibration Compensation)
Tamron’s acclaimed VC (Vibration Compensation)
mechanism reduces image blur caused by camera
shake to deliver sharp images even when shooting
handheld in low light or at the telephoto end.

Since the launch of its first versatile high-performance, high-power zoom, the 28-200mm ( Model 71D)
in 1992, Tamron has continued to expand its long-range zoom portfolio.
In response to the growing popularity of full-frame digital SLR cameras, Tamron is now launching a new,
full-frame, high-power zoom incorporating PZD ( Piezo Drive ), a standing-wave ultrasonic motor system
optimized for swift, quiet autofocus, along with the acclaimed VC ( Vibration Compensation) mechanism
plus a new upscale cosmetic design and finish.
This all-in-one™ 28-300mm lens delivers superb image quality in a remarkably compact, lightweight package,
and is the fruit of Tamron’s program of extensive technological development over the years.
