Tamron G2 Lens

This lens is designed specifically for Sony E-mount cameras. It is compatible with both full-frame and APS-C sensor bodies, though keep in mind that using it on an APS-C camera will result in a narrower field of view equivalent to roughly 105-270mm.

The G2 model features a completely revamped optical design for improved sharpness, a faster and more precise VXD linear motor for autofocus, and a new customizable button that allows you to assign specific functions via Tamron's software utility.

Yes, the built-in Vibration Compensation (VC) mechanism is highly effective for handheld work. It helps stabilize your footage and keeps your shots steady, even when you are shooting at the longer end of the zoom range.

It features a moisture-resistant construction, which provides protection against light rain, mist, or dust. While it is durable enough for outdoor use, it is not waterproof, so you should still avoid submerging it or exposing it to heavy downpours.

The lens offers a minimum object distance of 300mm (about 11.8 inches). This short focusing distance allows for surprisingly versatile close-up shots, making it much more flexible than a standard telephoto zoom.

Yes, it uses a 67mm filter thread. This is a common size across many of Tamron's lenses, which is convenient if you already own a collection of filters and want to share them between different lenses.
