Your cart is empty.Leading the list of improvements of the new G2 lens is the incorporation of TAMRON’s proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) mechanism. The lens maintains the maneuverability of class-leading compact size and weight while enabling shooting with greater stability. The optical design has been revamped to achieve uncompromising high image quality across the entire zoom range. The MOD is shortened at the wide end to 0.3m (11.8in) compared to the first generation 0.85m (33.5in), so that users can enjoy the unique photographic expressions distinctive to the lens. Additionally, the new 70-180mm zoom features the VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor focus mechanism for high-speed, high-precision auto-focusing that performs well for both stills and video. The new lens supports the dedicated TAMRON Lens Utility™ and TAMRON Lens Utility Mobile™ apps that allow you to customize functions based on various shooting styles for still photography and video. The lens design improves operability and provides scratch resistance. This single lens combines profound maneuverability and practicality that is worthy of the G2 badge and will deliver shooting experiences that make a fast-aperture telephoto zoom lens even more enjoyable.

Got this lense for my brother for Christmas seeing as it's one he's been drooling over(I don't blame him) and it's easily the best lense I've held. A bit on the heavier side but makes up for it by being really durable and brings out fantastic photos! Well worth the money!

If you don't want to buy the Gmaster and you want something not as heavy as the Sigma, This leanse is not just a great option, it is the best value of all those 3 lenses. Sharp, great autofocus, good weight and good build quality

I'm hobbyist with 10+ years' experience but never tried f2.8 telephoto zoom, mostly intimidated by the size/weight. This lens totally refreshed my impression. On a7c2, I can't feel noticeable difference between this and my standard 2.8 sony zoom and won't hesitate a sec to bring it out. Sharpness and bokeh are excellent to me, AF is good enough to stick to moderate speed object like cat or child, no complaint so far.

Bad lens flares/reflections straight out of the box. They are more prominent at 180mm. I used it with a Sony A7R IV A camera. As soon as it was delivered, I went straight to the DFW airport to test it.Amazon doesn't refund immediately. I returned it five days ago using the UPS option. It was delivered to Amazon yesterday, but there has yet to be an update. It may take up to two weeks to 30 days after they receive the item to issue a refund. So, be aware before you buy.

This lens is sharp, pretty fast and overall quality shots that rivals that of G Master lens for half the price. It is also fantastic for close up macro shots and with minimal focal length. Please see pics I have attached on my recent trip with my Sony A7C II. However, this lens quit working after 2 days of shooting. My camera would show flashing aperture value and wouldn't allow for autofocus function and force into manual focus, and the manual focus ring wouldnt change focus meaning something had gone wrong internally with the drive motors or drive by wire system so I requested a return. This malfunction left me with the 28-60mm Kit Lens and my 16-35mm GM lens for the rest of my trip and lose valueable shots most appropriate for this lens. Being my first Tamron lens, I was so happy with the photos I was able to get out of it on the first try but very dissapointed that it quit working after roughly 50-60 shots!!! The lens was not mishandled, not roughed around and it was handled with great care just like my other lenses. My 16-35 lens remained on the body for the rest of the trip and was very effective. Hopefully Tamron can figure out what happened and can offer a better solution unless I just got a bad unit.

I've had a lot of 70-200's in my life form Canon and Nikon but this 70-180 is by far the best of them. The images are razor sharp wide open at 2.8 across the range. On top of that I don't object to the light weight and small size of this lens especially if you are used to any other 2.8's. The difference between 180-200 is negligible, I don't miss it at all especially when you consider all you get in this lens. A 6 year warranty too. What more do you really want? I am really picky when it comes to lenses having been a pro for 30 years. This one is a keeper.

The lens quality is superb! You get the same quality at a fraction of the cost of a normal Sony lens! The value feels like I’m stealing but the quality doesn’t make it seem like it’s cheap. Image stabilization is ok! And the weight is perfect compared to other 70-200 lens
