Finally, a zoom that lets you shoot everything from ultra-telephoto to wide-angle, without changing lenses. The 18-300mm F/3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD (Model B061) is an all-in-one zoom lens for Sony E and FUJIFILM X-mount APS-C mirrorless cameras. It is the first1 lens in the world for APS-C mirrorless cameras with a zoom ratio of 16.6x and 18-300mm focal length range (the full-frame equivalent of 27-450mm). Zooming from wide-angle to ultra-telephoto, it covers a broad array of shooting situations, including landscape, sports, wildlife, snapshots, and portraits. The lens's compact design makes it easy to carry every day, and it is ideal for travel and family activities. With a 0.15m (5.9 in) MOD (Minimum Object Distance) at the wide end and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2, it lets you photograph subjects with a unique perspective. In addition, autofocus is very fast and accurate thanks to its precise, high speed VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor focus mechanism. And for steady shots, it is equipped with TAMRON's proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) system. This all-in-one zoom lens makes photography more fun because you can use it in an unlimited number of situations. It’s so versatile, it will inspire you to push your creativity further and further.

18-300mm F / 3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD (Model B061) covering a wide range of focal lengths
The greatest feature of this lens is the world's first 16.6x zoom ratio as an APS-C size mirrorless compatible lens. The focal length covers 18-300mm (equivalent to 27-450mm in 35mm format). You can enjoy a variety of shooting expressions with this one, from super-telephoto shooting that makes use of the attraction effect to wide-angle shooting that can capture a vast landscape. In addition, it has a very compact design, weighs about 620 g, and uses the same φ67 mm filter diameter as most of our mirrorless lens series. You can handle shooting in any situation.

High-speed, high-precision AF of the highest level in its class that does not miss a decisive moment
Tamron's original linear motor focus mechanism VXD is used for AF drive. Since it has the highest level of speed, accuracy, and responsiveness as a high-magnification zoom lens, you can comfortably focus from the shortest shooting distance to infinity even at a super-telephoto 300mm (equivalent to 450mm in the 35mm format). .. It also has extremely high focus tracking, so you won't miss the decisive moment when shooting insects, animals, vehicles, etc. As for quietness, the lens group for focusing can be driven directly without going through gears, so the driving noise of the motor is small, making it ideal for still image shooting and movie shooting in a quiet environment.

Amazing maximum shooting magnification of 1: 2 as a high-power zoom lens
The Model B061 boasts excellent close-up shooting capabilities that overturn the conventional wisdom of high-power zoom lenses. At the wide-angle end of 18mm, the shortest shooting distance was 0.15m and the maximum shooting magnification was 1: 2. In addition, the working distance is a surprising 5mm * , and it is possible to create a wide macro-specific photographic expression that captures the background while approaching the subject as much as possible.
* When shooting at the shortest shooting distance of 0.15m (wide-angle end), the distance between the subject and the tip of the lens is approximately 5mm. Enjoy shooting so that the subject does not come into contact with the front lens.

Achieve uncompromising optical performance over the entire zoom range
This lens is a high-resolution zoom lens that is particular about depiction performance while being a high-magnification zoom lens. By luxuriously using special glass materials such as 4 LD (Low Dispersion) lenses and 3 composite aspherical lenses, beautiful depiction is achieved from the center of the screen to the periphery. It greatly reduces various aberrations such as chromatic aberration. Furthermore, by applying BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection Generation 2) coating, ghosts and flares that are likely to occur when shooting against the sun are thoroughly suppressed. We have achieved both high image quality and soft bokeh over the entire zoom range.

Equipped with Tamron's original image stabilization mechanism VC
This lens is equipped with Tamron's original image stabilization mechanism VC to suppress blurring that tends to occur in the telephoto range. It demonstrates its power even in handheld shooting in low light such as in a dimly lit room or at night, and effectively reduces the deterioration of image quality. In addition, by utilizing AI (artificial intelligence) technology, it is possible to obtain a correction effect that takes into consideration movie shooting at focal lengths of 70 mm or less.
