Product details

The second, comprehensively updated generation of the high-speed standard zoom lens. The 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III VXD G2 (model A063) is a fast standard zoom lens for mirrorless full format system cameras
from Sony and the successor to the popular 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III RXD (model A036). A high resolution and an outstanding image quality are among its most important innovations. The new lens has a revised optical system, but is just as compact as the previous model. The optical structure includes LD (Low Dispersion) and GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) lens elements to minimize aberrations. The imaging performance is very high at every focal length and over the entire image area. When the aperture is open, there is a beautiful bokeh effect. With these and many other innovations, the 28- 75mm f/2.8 G2 is the first choice for everyone who wants to maximize their creativity.

  • PositiveLens construction and achievable image quality are very good. The new lens also scores points with its high AF performance and convenient operation.
  • NegativeIt is recognisable at some points that the focus was on cost-effective production. This includes the somewhat rough focal length adjustment.

The very low price of the lens should be emphasised, as the standard zoom is a real bargain at 699 euros. In return, the customer is offered a pleasing performance. As a fast alternative for an everyday lens, it delivers appealing images and equally good videos.

  • PositiveExtremely fast autofocus
  • NegativeNo image stabiliser

The standard zoom shows in the test lab that it is also a real upgrade compared to the Nikon model in terms of resolution. Here, the lens plays in a league that is usually only reached by high-quality fixed focal lengths. In the test, the lightning-fast and precise autofocus, which performs its tasks unerringly even with moving lenses, was also really impressive...

  • PositiveThe standard zoom lens from Tamron comes with a high-quality finish and excellent value for money.
  • NegativeThe lens works without its own image stabilisation. Sony full-frame E cameras, however, have an integrated stabiliser via sensor shift.

Tamron shows that even very good lenses can gain considerably by being revised and equipped with additional functions. The 28-75mm F/2.8 Di IlI VXD G2 is an excellent example of this, convincing with its high resolution and other plus points.

When Tamron relaunches its standard zoom, we are always particularly excited and expectations are high. Version III costs 950 euros - and delivers as expected. At 28 mm, the resolution at both measured apertures is a good 2500 LP - a good, if not top value. At 46 mm, the resolution in the centre unfortunately drops by 160 LP (aperture 2.8) and 110 LP (aperture 5.6), but the contrast remains very high...
