Tamron 70-180 mm F/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2 for Nikon Z
The Tamron 70-180mm F/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2 (model A065Z) is the second generation of the popular light telephoto designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras with Nikon Z mount. The lens maintains a constant F/2.8 aperture throughout the range, bringing a redesigned optical construction while being one of the smallest and lightest in its class. Thanks to the combination of special XLD and LD elements, it offers high resolution, contrast and chromatic aberration suppression across the entire zoom range. The G2 adds effective VC stabilisation and improved tracking of moving subjects, which will be appreciated by sports and portrait photographers alike. The minimum focusing distance of 0.3 m at the wide end opens up new creative possibilities including semi-macro. Rugged construction with moisture protection and fluorine-treated front lens ensures reliability even in harsh environments.

High-end optics and VC stabilisation
The optical system uses special XLD and LD elements that effectively reduce chromatic aberration and ensure high contrast. The redesigned design delivers sharp images from the center to the corners of the frame. The BBAR G2 surface treatment minimizes internal reflections and improves colour rendering even when shooting against the light. The constant F/2.8 aperture allows you to work with shallow depth of field and beautiful bokeh. The Tamron 70-180mm F/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2 lens maintains high resolution across the entire zoom range.
VC stabilisation and VXD fast autofocus
The built-in VC stabilisation system helps compensate for camera shake, especially at longer focal lengths and in lower light. The VXD linear motor ensures fast, accurate and quiet focusing suitable for video shooting. Enhanced object tracking helps maintain sharpness in dynamic scenes. Internal focusing (IF) prevents the tube from sliding out and makes it easier to work with filters. The result is reliable performance in both photography and video.
Professional design and expanded capabilities of the Tamron 70-180 mm F/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2
The construction is sealed against moisture and the front member is protected by a fluorine coating against water and dirt. The zoom lock mechanism (ZL) prevents spontaneous ejection during transport. The Tamron 70-180mm F/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2 lens is compatible with TAMRON Lens Utility software, which allows customization of features and firmware updates. The light weight of approximately 865 g ensures comfortable handling during extended shooting sessions. The combination of mobility, performance and luminosity makes this model a versatile professional tool.
