Product details

For mirrorless full-frame system cameras with Sony E-Mount. With a weight of only 420 g, a length of just 99 mm and a filter diameter of 67 mm, the lens is not only unprecedentedly light and handy, but
is also perfectly balanced on a compact, mirrorless system camera. Combined with excellent image quality, the new ultra-wide angle zoom lens is ideal for a variety of subjects including landscape, architecture, reportage and family snapshots. The 17-28mm offers a high F/2.8 light intensity over the entire focal length range as well as very good detail and contrast reproduction. The combination of ultra-wide-angle, large open aperture and short focusing distance of only 0.19 meters (wide angle) makes the lens versatile and inspires creative, expressive image results. The new autofocus system is based on a quiet RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) stepper motor that focuses quickly and precisely on the subject. Thanks to its silent focusing, the 17-28mm F/2.8 Di III RXD is particularly suitable for video recording. The weatherproof construction of the new Zoom lens is protected against splash water and moisture. The front lens has a water-repellent fluorine coating, which effectively prevents contamination by fingerprints or dust. In addition, the 17-28mm F/2.8 is compatible with various camera-specific technologies such as fast hybrid autofocus and eye recognition AF.

Das 17-28mm F/2.8 DI III RXD ist mit einer Länge von rund zehn Zentimetern angenehm kompakt und dank eines Gewichts von nur 40 g sehr leicht gebaut. Im Objektiv befinden sich 13 Linsen, aufgeteilt in elf Gruppen. Tamron setzt hierbei auf drei asphärische Linsen, zwei LD-Elemente (Low Dispersion) sowie ein XLD-Element (Extra Low Dispersion), um Abbildungsfehler wie chromatische Aberrationen zu unterbinden...

  • PositiveDas Tamron-Objektiv gefällt durch seine Kompaktheit und geringes Gewicht, bietet aber dennoch eine sehr gute Leistung mit hohen Auflösungswerten.
  • NegativeDie unverbindliche Preisempfehlung ist relativ hoch, aber der Straßenpreis des Tamrons ist bereits spürbar gesunken.

Die Erweiterung der Brennweiten in den Weitwinkelbereich ist für die RXD-Vollformatobjektive mit Sony E-Bajonett eine sinnvolle Konsequenz. Auch bei diesem neuen Objektiv zeigt Tamron nachdrücklich, dass Spitzenoptiken für hochauflösende DSLMs auch von Drittanbietern kommen können.
