The Tamron 35-150mm F/2.0-2.8 Di III VXD Nikon Z covers wide-angle to telephoto and is ideal for both travel and portrait photography. It is the first zoom lens for Nikon Z-mount cameras to offer a maximum wide-open aperture of F2, allowing you to capture magnificent vistas and tall buildings at 35mm and dynamic close-ups at 150mm. With its high level of performance in a wide range of shooting conditions, this fast lens is ideal for trips to create photographic works. In addition, by incorporating the VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor focusing mechanism, the lens offers very fast and high-precision autofocus for a fast lens. It also incorporates a new design for improved operability and ergonomic comfort.

Incorporating the most commonly used focal lengths, from wide angle and standard to medium and telephoto, in a single lens allows seamless shooting without the need to change lenses. This is particularly useful for portraiture, where a sense of rhythm is essential, and allows the user to capture outstanding shots without losing the model's fleeting expression.

The world's first F2-2.8 fast-aperture zoom lens

The new 35-150mm F2-2.8 features a fast maximum aperture of F2 at the 35 mm focal length, compared to the typical F2.8 fast-aperture zoom lenses. This lens enables you to achieve enhanced, beautiful bokeh style even on the wide-angle end of the lens's focal range. The faster F2 aperture allows the use of higher shutter speeds and lower ISO settings, so users enjoy less potential camera shake and reduce high-ISO image noise.

Versatile zoom range provides seamless shooting from wide-angle 35mm to telephoto 150mm

The 35mmto 150mm zoom range of the new Model A058 is ideal for travel photography because you can do so much with just one lens. You can capture snapshots at the wide-angle of 35mm or a standard angle of 50mm, close-up portraits 85mm and telephoto shots at 150mm. The responsive zoom ring enables you to continue shooting as you shift from wide to telephoto seamlessly and smoothly without changing lenses—which is convenient for video as well as still photography.

Outstanding optical performance throughout the zoom range

Thanks to the latest optical design featuring four LD (Low Dispersion) and three gm (Glass Molded Aspherical) lens elements optimally arranged, the 35-150mm F2-2.8 provides superior optical performance throughout the entire zoom range. Even when used with today’s extra-high-resolution digital cameras, it consistently achieves high image quality to the edges of the frame and reduces onion ring bokeh (concentric circles) while presenting a beautiful, soft bokeh style that is achieved only by fast apertures. The versatile zoom range enables photographers to express themselves freely while capturing images at focal lengths they are familiar with, including 35mm, 50mm (considered “normal” or standard),85mm (mid-telephoto length commonly used for portraits),100 mm or 135 mm, as well as the maximum 150mm tele focal length—and any focal length in between. It’s like six lenses in one!

Fast, quiet VXD linear motor mechanism for high-speed and high-precision autofocus

The lens's AF drive uses the linear motor focus mechanism VXD. The high-speed, high-precision AF provides the lens with superior responsiveness to the photographer's actions, delivering stable and reliable focusing even with fast-aperture lenses, from the MOD (Minimum Object Distance) to infinity. The 35-150mm F2-2.8 offers excellent focus tracking of moving objects so you are ready for those important moments. Additionally, the focus motor is quiet, so it is ideal for shooting both still images and video in situations that demand low noise.
