Tamron 28-200MM F/2.8-5.6 DI III RXD

Tamron 28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD – World’s first F/2.8 full-frame mirrorless all-in-one zoom

All-in-one zoom for Sony E with fast aperture at wide end

The Tamron 28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD gives you an all-in-one zoom range for Sony full-frame mirrorless cameras. It offers a fast F/2.8 aperture at 28mm and extends to 200mm without changing lenses. As a result, you can move quickly from wide-angle scenes to telephoto compositions in seconds.

Great for travel, fast opportunities and compact setups

This lens targets photographers and filmmakers who need versatility in a small package. It performs well when opportunities appear quickly and when compact, lightweight equipment matters. Despite its wide aperture and long reach, it shares the same physical size as the Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III RXD and is smaller than competing megazooms on the market.

Wide dynamic range and close-up capability

Use the 28–200mm range to capture sweeping landscapes at the wide end and compressed telephoto shots at the long end. Additionally, the lens offers noteworthy macro abilities. At 28mm the minimum object distance (MOD) is 0.19 m with a magnification ratio of 1:3.1. At 200mm the MOD is 0.8 m with a magnification ratio of 1:3.8. These figures let you photograph close-up subjects and take advantage of the large aperture for shallow depth of field.

Fast, accurate and quiet autofocus for stills and video

Tamron equips this lens with its RXD AF stepping motor, optimized for mirrorless camera focus systems. The RXD motor delivers fast and accurate focusing while keeping noise to a minimum. Therefore, it is well suited for video recording, providing smooth focus transitions. The lens also supports Sony functions such as Eye AF and Direct Manual Focus (DMF), enabling quick manual adjustments when needed.

Optical design and weather resistance

Tamron focused on optical performance by including special elements to control aberrations. The design uses 2 LD (Low Dispersion) and XLD (Extra Low Dispersion) elements to reduce chromatic aberration and improve edge-to-edge image quality. For durability and handling in adverse conditions, the lens has internal rubber gaskets for weather resistance. In addition, the front element carries a fluorine coating to repel raindrops, grease and dirt and to make cleaning easier.

Shared filter size for workflow efficiency

The lens uses a 67mm filter thread, matching other Tamron lenses for Sony E. This shared filter size allows you to use the same filters—such as polarizers—across multiple lenses, simplifying your kit and saving space.
