Get in Close. The Tamron 90mm f/2.8 Di III VXD’s short-telephoto focal length, bright f/2.8 aperture, 1:1 macro capability, and 9.1-inch minimum focusing distance make it especially well-suited for close-up shots of small objects, although anything you put in front of it will look great. Its circular twelve-blade aperture produces twelve-point starburst effects around point-light sources while giving you excellent depth-of-field control and consistent brightness. Using an APS-C camera? This lens will give you 135mm-equivalent focal length.

Look Sharp! The twelve-group/fifteen-element optical formula includes four low-dispersion elements to give you sharp, high-contrast images across the image plane. Each lens element has a BBAR-G2 coating that combats ghosting, internal reflections, and flare while helping maintain sharpness and color fidelity even in strong light.

Fast Focusing. The 90mm’s VXD linear-motor autofocus system tracks even the most fast-moving subjects quickly, accurately, and smoothly, making it ideal for still and video use. You can use the focus-limiter switch to improve performance speed by reducing its focusing range, and there’s full-time manual-focus override for even greater precision.

Smart, Durable Build. You can use this lens in inclement conditions thanks to its moisture-resistant build. The front element’s fluorine coating protects against smearing and debris, and the lens hood has a sliding window that makes swapping filters a snap.

Tamron Lens Utility Compatible. This lens is compatible with Tamron’s Lens Utility software, which lets you customize settings, assign functions, and more.
