Tamron 17-70mm F/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD Lens - Fujifilm X-mount

The Tamron 17-70mm F/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD is a compact and lightweight zoom lens for Fujifilm X-mount mirrorless cameras. It includes Tamron's VC (Vibration Compensation) to help keep your images and video footage steady. Additionally, this lens focuses very close - it features an MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of just 19cm at the wide-angle end and 39cm at the telephoto end. When shooting very close to the subject, the lens enables expressive imagery with highly blurred backgrounds, a feature unique to large aperture lenses. From portrait to landscape, videos and everyday use, this lens captures all of the excitement and discoveries with the finest possible detail.

VC for worry free still photography and video shooting
The 17-70mm F2.8 utilizes Tamron's highly regarded, proprietary VC image stabilization to maximize the inherent optical performance of the lens. It reduces the degradation of picture quality caused by minute camera shake that is likely to occur during handheld shooting at slow shutter speeds under low-light conditions indoors or at dusk. When shooting video, by leveraging AI technology, image stabilization performance improves.

Outstanding optical performance
The optical construction of the 17-70mm F2.8 features 16 elements in 12 groups. Two GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) and one hybrid aspherical lens elements are precisely arranged to maintain high-resolution performance from edge to edge.

Quiet and fast AF
The AF drive incorporates an RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) stepping motor unit. RXD uses an actuator that is able to precisely control the rotational angle of the motor, allowing it to drive the focusing lens without passing through a reduction gear.The addition of a sensor that detects the position of the lens to a high degree of accuracy enables high-speed and precise AF, which allows you to maintain razorsharp focus when shooting continually moving subjects or filming video. The lens is also remarkably quiet, eliminating concerns of drive sounds being picked up while shooting video.

Compatible with advanced features
Tamron’s 17-70mm F2.8 zoom is compatible with many of the advanced features that are specific to mirrorless cameras. This includes:
Fast Hybrid AF
Eye AF
Direct Manual Focus
In-camera lens correction
Camera-based lens unit firmware updates

Moisture resistant construction
The lens is splash-resistant. All critical areas have special seals. Lenses with this feature are ideal for outdoor use in bad weather.

XLD (Extra Low Dispersion) glass
Extra-Low Dispersion – XLD elements have particularly low colour dispersion index. They reduce chromatic aberrations that appear as colour fringes on the contrast edges and reduce image sharpness.

Fluorine Coating
Fluorine Coating protects the front lens from contamination. It prevents oil and water droplets from sticking to the surface. Fingerprints and dirt are easier to remove.
