  • Close focus at 0.19 m wide and 0.39 m tele allows detailed close-ups

Everyday zoom for APS-C Sony E

The Tamron B070 is a 17-70mm f/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD lens built for Sony APS-C mirrorless bodies. Its constant f/2.8 aperture holds across the 4.1x zoom range, giving a full-frame equivalent of 25.5-105mm. The bundle adds a 67mm UV filter, a 67mm CPL filter, a lens pen, wrap, cap keeper, optics care kit and photo/video software for a complete starter package.

Straightforward E-mount fitting

The lens mounts directly on any Sony E-mount APS-C camera without adapters. RXD stepping motor drives fast, quiet autofocus for stills and video. VC image stabilisation helps handheld shots at slower speeds. Minimum focus distances are 0.19 m at 17 mm and 0.39 m at 70 mm. The only common snag is forgetting to remove the rear cap before the first mount — otherwise installation is plug-and-play.

Check APS-C E-mount compatibility

Verify your camera uses the Sony E mount and an APS-C sensor; full-frame E-mount bodies will crop to APS-C mode automatically. Ensure you have a free 67 mm filter thread if you plan to stack the included UV and CPL filters together. No firmware update or special setting is required beyond normal lens recognition.

How do I decide between the available versions or capacities of this lens?
