    In development: a wide-aperture Tamron Z-mount zoom

    Coming soon, the Tamron 35-150mm F2-2.8 Di III VXD will be the world’s first zoom lens with an f/2 maximum aperture designed for mirrorless Nikon Z-mount cameras. This highly anticipated new model is expected to be available for purchase in the fall of this year. This follows closely on the heels of a similar launch for Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, previously announced in October 2021, as well as other recent Tamron E-mount lenses.

    As the first zoom lens with such a wide maximum aperture for Nikon Z-mount cameras, the 35-150mm f/2-2.8 Di III VXD spans a versatile and popular wide-angle-to-telephoto zoom range, making it ideal for both travel and portrait photography – and allowing you to achieve various desired effects in the moment without the hassle of having to swap lenses.

    Since its debut just a few years ago, the Nikon Z Series of mirrorless cameras have been set apart by the generous width of their revolutionary lens mount, allowing more light onto the sensor and producing super-sharp high-res images. With such a wide aperture at your fingertips, the new Tamron lens will make a welcome addition to the kit of any serious Z Series afficionado.

    The latest Tamron zoom lens also features an overall new design that places emphasis on enhanced operability and ergonomics. With a remarkably high-speed, high-precision autofocus system for such a fast-aperture lens (thanks to the incorporation of a Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive linear motor focus mechanism), the Tamron 35-150mm f/2-2.8 Di III VXD lends itself to a wide range of applications when the speed of the lens matters in more ways than one.

    • The world’s first f/2-2.8 fast-aperture zoom lens for Nikon Z Series cameras
    • Versatile zoom range provides seamless shooting from wide-angle 35mm to telephoto 150mm
    • Outstanding optical performance throughout the zoom range
    • Fast, quiet VXD linear motor mechanism for high-speed and high-precision AF
    • Expanded versatility with excellent close-range shooting performance
    • Moisture-resistant construction
    • Fluorine coating
    • Hood-locking mechanism
