Tamron 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD Sony E camera lens

Versatile Zoom Range for Sony E-Mount

The Tamron 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD covers a broad focal range from 28mm wide-angle to 200mm telephoto on Sony E-mount cameras. Its bright f/2.8 maximum aperture at the wide end suits low-light scenes and shallow depth of field. The lens uses 19 elements in 14 groups to correct aberrations across the zoom range. It is built for photographers who want one lens for travel, events and everyday shooting.

Silent Autofocus and Lightweight Handling

An RXD stepping motor drives focus quickly and quietly, which benefits both stills and video capture. The lens weighs 1.3 kg and measures 4.6 inches in length, making it manageable for extended handheld use. A 67 mm filter thread accepts common circular polarisers and ND filters. There is no optical image stabilisation, so steady technique or in-body stabilisation is required at longer focal lengths.

Consistent Performance Across the Frame

The optical design maintains sharpness from centre to edges throughout the zoom range, even at the 75° 23' wide-angle view. At 200mm the angle narrows to 12° 21', compressing perspective for portraits and distant details. Minimum aperture reaches f/22 for extended depth of field when needed. The lens suits users who prioritise a single high-quality zoom over carrying multiple primes.
