The image quality of Tamron’s previous 28-75mm standard zoom lens for the Sony E-mount was already very high, and the new 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2 is even better. The optical construction has been fundamentally revised, including a new anti-reflection coating that further reduces flare and ghosting. Compared to its predecessor, the autofocus is twice as fast thanks to Tamron’s VXD linear motor and now the minimum focusing distance is just 18cm at a focal length of 28mm, giving a magnification of 1:2.7. In addition, the ergonomics have been improved and the lens can be customised using the TAMRON Lens utility software.
