Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD

The Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD is a versatile standard zoom lens for cameras with a Canon RF mount with the largest zoom range in its class. With a 4.1x zoom ratio, you cover everything from wide-angle to portraits. Across the entire range, the lens maintains a constant f/2.8 aperture, so you also have enough brightness in low light for sharp details and natural background blur. The optical construction contains a hybrid aspherical element, two LD elements for minimal chromatic aberration and a molded glass aspherical element, delivering high resolution and excellent image quality from edge to edge, in both photo and video recordings.

The built-in VC image stabilisation effectively reduces camera shake, which is immediately noticeable in handheld photography and video. The fast and silent RXD autofocus system focuses quickly and accurately, even on moving subjects. Focus breathing and AF noise are effectively suppressed, making the lens suitable for videos where smooth focus transitions are essential. With a minimum focusing distance of just 19 cm in the wide-angle position, close-ups of small details, products or textures that are out of reach with larger zooms are also possible. The combination of wide-angle, portrait and macro-like focusing options makes the 17-70mm f/2.8 suitable for street, travel, portrait and product photography. Despite the wide zoom range and built-in image stabilisation, the lens remains compact and lightweight. The moisture-resistant construction and fluorine coating on the front glass protect the lens when used in changing weather conditions, from wet street photography to shoots in dusty environments.
