The Tamron 17-50mm F/4 is a versatile "walk around" lens and offers unparalleled convenience and portability. It eliminates the need for frequent lens changes, making it an ideal choice for capturing a wide range of content, from expansive landscapes to spontaneous snapshots, both in stills and video.
The lens is designed to give you razor-sharp images at all focal lengths and comes with a weather-resistant construction and a fast and quiet autofocus.
A remarkable optical precision is maintained across the entire zoom range, resulting in great edge-to-edge sharpness. The lens is equipped with the advanced VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor focus mechanism, known for its quiet operation, swift responsiveness, and impeccable accuracy in autofocus. Additionally, its internal zoom mechanism contributes to exceptional balance, providing an enhanced user experience for filmmakers, since you don't have to rebalance it on a gimbal.
Its exceptional close-range shooting capability allows a MOD of 0.19m at the wide end and 0.3m at the telephoto end enabling users to get up close to subjects.
