Tamron 50-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III VC VXD Lens for Nikon Z in More Detail
Unique 50mm-400mm range
The TAMRON 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC is a versatile ultra-telephoto all-in-one zoom lens with an impressive 8x zoom range, starting at 50mm and extending all the way to 400mm. This unique range allows you to capture everything from standard shots to super-telephoto images including elusive wildlife and sports subjects.
Whether you photograph landscapes, wildlife, portraits, or even small groups, this compact lens has you covered with a unique range.
Excellent image quality throughout the range
Enjoy outstanding image quality throughout the entire zoom range with an optical design that includes 24 elements in 18 groups. These feature a mixture of special lens elements like two XLD, three LD, one GM, and one Hybrid Aspherical element to effectively control aberrations, including axial chromatic aberrations.
Tamron's latest BBAR-G2 Coating further enhances image clarity by reducing ghosting and flare, even in backlit conditions, ensuring that no matter the situation, this lens consistently delivers sharp, crisp results.
A circular 9-bladed aperture diaphragm allows for rounded bokeh to be created, with an opening which stays rounded for two stops above the maximum aperture. This allows you to capture stunning shots with excellent subject separation and characterful bokeh in a variety of situations.
High-speed, high-precision Autofocus
The Tamron 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC features a VXD linear motor for high-speed, precise autofocus with exceptional focus tracking capabilities. This allows for quick and accurate focusing from close-up to infinity, making it ideal for capturing sharp images, even of fast-moving subjects like wildlife and sports. The focus motor also operates very quietly, making it perfect for both stills photography and video recording in environments where silence is essential, such as when shooting events, weddings or wildlife subjects.
A compact zoom you can take everywhere
Despite its impressive 50-400mm range, at 185.8mm long and weighing only 1,180g, the Tamron 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC is smaller and lighter than traditional 100-400mm lenses. It’s perfect for spontaneous photography outings where you’re unsure of what you’ll encounter, allowing you to capture stunning images with of all types of subjects with a single all-in-one lens.
VC Image Stabilisation
For sharp, shake-free shots even at 400mm, this lens features Tamron’'s VC image stabilisation technology. This powerful system reduces image blur caused by camera shake, and with the help of AI algorithms, it selects the best compensation characteristics for videography at focal lengths of 100mm or less.
Half Life-size Macro Photography with 1:2 Magnification Ratio
This lens boasts 1:2 magnification, plus a minimum object distance (MOD) of 0.25m at 50mm, allowing for half-macro photography with a 1:2 magnification ratio from 50mm to 70mm. At the 400mm telephoto end, the MOD is just 1.5m with a 1:4 magnification ratio for near tele-macro style dynamic shots.
