Expand Your Photo Experience With The Advanced TAMRON 17-70mm F2.8 VC For APS-C Mirrorless
The Tamron 17-70mm F/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD (model B070) is a fast standard zoom lens designed for Sony and Fujifilm mirrorless APS-C system cameras (a full-frame equivalent of 25.5-105mm), and is the world’s first* fast-aperture F2.8 standard zoom lens for APS-C mirrorless cameras to achieve a 4.1x zoom ratio. It strikes an ideal balance between a large zoom range and high image quality. Equipped with TAMRON’s VC image stabilizer, it offers the shortest focusing distances of 0.19m (7.5″) at wide angle and 0.39m (15.4″) at telephoto, allowing for impressive close-ups with soft background blur. Perfect for portraits, landscapes, or snapshots, this lens captures life’s most beautiful moments in stunning detail.

Fast F2.8 Aperture Throughout The Entire Zoom Range For Sony E-Mount And Fujifilm X-Mount
The 17-70mm F2.8 maintains its fast maximum aperture throughout the entire zoom range (unlike variable aperture lenses where the maximum aperture changes as you zoom). Thanks to the F2.8 and high optical performance, the 17-70mm F2.8 allows you to capture your subjects with clear details from wide-angle to telephoto. The three main advantages of a fast F2.8 aperture are the ability to shoot successfully in lower light levels; beautiful and dreamy bokeh; and better control of depth-of-field, which is particularly useful when intentionally limiting depth-of-field to improve portraits by blurring the area behind the main subject.
Remarkable Image Quality Edge To Edge
Structurally, the optical formula includes 16 elements in 12 groups. It was created in pursuit of superior optical performance, utilizing an effective allocation of two GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) lens elements and one aspherical hybrid lens element. The optical design ensures high resolution and high contrast not just in the center of the image but also in corners and at the edges.
Your Key To Beautiful, Brilliant Video Shooting
The 17-70mm F2.8 is a standard zoom lens that’s ideal for not only still photography but also for video shooting. The 17-70mm F2.8 has minimal focus breathing, an undesirable phenomenon in which the angle of view changes depending on the focusing distance during videography. By counteracting focus breathing, the 17-70mm F2.8 empowers users’ expression of their creative intentions to the fullest degree. In addition, the quiet RXD AF drive motor and the VC image stabilization mechanism facilitate hand-held video shooting.
MOD Of 7.5" (0.19m) For Amazing Close-Ups
This advanced lens focuses extremely close for a standard zoom lens for APS-C mirrorless cameras. The MOD is just 0.19m (7.5″) at the wide-angle end and 0.39m (15.4″) at the telephoto end. When shooting very close to the subject, the lens enables expressive imagery with highly blurred backgrounds, a feature unique to fast-aperture lenses. This allows you to create one-of-a-kind photos of a variety of subjects, from snapshots to portraits, landscapes, and even architectural photography. Close-up shots of your main subjects taken at the 17mm end maximize the unique perspective only true wide-angle lenses can deliver.
High Performance Autofocus System Means You'll Own Every Shooting Opportunity
The AF drive on the 17-70mm F2.8 includes an RXD motor unit to help you stay focused on the action. RXD uses an actuator to precisely control the rotational angle of the motor, allowing it to directly drive the focusing lens without passing through a reduction gear. A sensor that precisely detects the position of the lens enables high-speed and accurate AF, which is ideal when shooting continually moving subjects or recording video. And with a focusing system that is both smooth and quiet, the 17-70mm F2.8 lets you shoot free from stress not worrying about the drive sound in a quiet environment.
Compact, Lightweight Design Is Perfect Match For APS-C Mirrorless Cameras
The Tamron 17-70mm was created through the uncompromising pursuit of portability optimized for use with APS-C Fujifilm X and Sony E-mount cameras. Even with the inclusion of high-performance VC, the 17-70mm F2.8 is extremely lightweight and compact, with an overall length of just 119.3mm (4.7″), maximum diameter of 74.6mm, and weight of 525g (18.5 oz)*. It is a very versatile lens for travel, where small bags are preferred, and is a great portable lens for daily use.

We do not sell Grey Market Products
What is Grey Market?
Products that are imported and sold by anyone other than USA Authorized dealers are considered Grey Market products. These are often genuine products that were intended for other countries; therefore, they may not meet the manufacturer's specifications for US products or perform as expected, and they are not covered by a USA manufacture warranty or eligible for a USA repair service.
What are the differences as far as a customer is concerned?
In most cases, the main difference between a "USA" and a "Grey Market," or imported product is the cost of the item and the terms of the item’s warranty coverage. The products themselves are otherwise identical. As a rule, "Grey Market" items typically cost less than their USA counterparts. "Grey market" products never qualify for manufacturer's rebate programs and can not be price matched. If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-333-4280.
