A practical “universal” for Sony’s guard of cropped mirrorless cameras from the “six thousandth” league. The main advantage of the model is a wide coverage of equivalent focal lengths of 25.5-105 mm, and even with a constantly high maximum aperture throughout the zoom range f / 2.8. The lens will prove itself both in the landscape genre of photography, and when shooting portraits or close-ups.

Optically Tamron 17-70 F2.8 Di III-A VC RXD is built according to the formula of 16 elements in 12 groups. Among them, one hybrid and two cast aspherical elements were tucked into to ensure high image resolution. Also on board the model is an optical stabilizer, a silent stepping drive for the Rapid eXtra-silent Stepping Drive (RXD) autofocus system, and a 9-blade aperture for effective background blur. The lens focuses from a distance of 19 cm at the wide-angle zoom position to 39 cm at the maximum zoom. Together with the "station wagon" you can use suitable filters with a diameter of 67 mm. The lens makes the camera heavier by about 525 g and increases the dimensions of the camera kit by 119 mm in length.

Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD Lens compatible with Fujifilm X (A070) 7917709

Please Note Tamron Lenses have a 5 Year WarrantySpanning a versatile zoom range and characterized by its bright design, the T... moreamron 17-70mm f/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD Lens compatible with Fujifilm X (A070) is a 25.5-105mm-equivalent lens compatible with APS-C-format FUJIFILM X-mount mirrorless cameras. The wide to short-tele range is ideal for everyday shooting and the fast f/2.8 constant maximum aperture suits working in difficult lighting conditions and offers improved control over depth of field. Complementing this design is a series of specialized optics, including aspherical and low dispersion elements, that produce well-corrected imagery with high sharpness, clarity, and color accuracy. Individual elements also feature Tamron's BBAR coating, which suppresses flare and ghosting for greater contrast when working in backlit and harsh lighting conditions. Adding to the versatility of the zoom design is a Vibration Compensation image stabilization system, which reduces the appearance of camera shake for steadier photo and video recording in low-light conditions. Also benefitting handling, an RXD stepping motor enables quick, near-silent autofocus performance along with full-time manual focus override and a minimum focusing distance of 7.5". Suiting this lens's use in inclement weather conditions, it also features a moisture-resistant construction along with a fluorine-coated front element to protect against fingerprints and smudging.

Excellent modern lens, with superb image quality and stabilizer.
28 September 2021 
This lens surprised me with its image quality. Beautiful picture, complete absence of vignetting or distortion at all focal lengths, amazing bokeh, etc. The image is very bright, vivid, and voluminous. The contrast and sharpness are remarkable. Surprisingly, it has an excellent stabilizer that adapts to the situation (no kidding). I absolutely love how it shoots during the day, especially indoors. The background blurs to a creamy texture, and the image is very sharp even at the widest aperture. The autofocus is very responsive, smooth, and at the same time fast. No delays or jitters. Equally good for portraits and landscapes. It doesn't fear backlighting and doesn't have chromatic aberrations. This is my first lens from Tamron; I took the plunge after watching reviews. I'm deliberately not mentioning what's on the box, like the thorium coating on the front element and the processor with built-in intelligence for object processing in the frame and synchronization with the camera. It's simply the best lens in my collection. I carry it everywhere. Even when shooting against a bright background, the bokeh is excellent, with nicely shaped circles. This was previously only possible with a prime lens. The lens is made of plastic, perfectly assembled, and very ergonomic. I'm glad I took the risk.
Beautiful image. Excellent focus. Excellent stabilizer. Even not very successful shots are perfectly enhanced in Lightroom, thanks to good sharpness and contrast. I didn't notice any distortions, even in challenging shooting conditions. It has moisture protection, although I haven't used this feature yet.)
Only price.
