The Tamron SP 24-70 mm F/2.8 Di VC USD G2 for Nikon boasts a high-speed zoom lens for full-frame and APS-C DSLRs. It is also equipped with a new Dual MPU - Micro Processing Units control system, which enables fast autofocusing with improved accuracy and the highest compensating image stabilization features. Thanks to eBAND's superior surface treatment, the appearance of flashes and shadows that most often appear in backlight is eliminated. The Tamron lens also offers additional protection - fluorine coating, moisture-resistant construction and a lockable lens hood. You will use it especially after shooting landscapes, portraits, news, travel and many other occasions.

The flower-shaped sun visor is blocked in one place to prevent misalignment causing vignetting. The TAMRON SP 24-70 mm F/2.8 Di VC USD G2 for Nikon is compatible with the optional Tamron TAP-in console, which provides a USB connection to your computer, allowing you to easily update firmware and adjust functions, including fine adjustments to AF and VC.

The A032 lens contains 17 lenses in 12 groups, including 2 XR (Extra Refractive Index) lenses to suppress optical defects, 3 LD (Low Dispersion) lenses to minimize chromatic aberrations, 3 GM (glass-molded aspherical) lenses and 1 hybrid aspherical lens to effectively neutralize spherical aberrations and distortions. By combining these special glass materials, the A032 achieves unprecedented colour accuracy and image quality.

The lens is equipped with Tamron's original eBAND (Extended Bandwidth & Angular-Dependency) Coating, which combines a nano-structured coating with an extremely low refractive index and conventional multi-layer coatings to provide excellent anti-reflective performance. The optimal eBAND Coating application together with Tamron BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating significantly reduces flare and ghosting,that can occur when shooting against the light.

The lens uses a new control system that uses two MPUs (microprocessor units). A dual MPU is a microprocessor unit containing two different microprocessors. Two separate processing units mean that the digital signals from the VC image stabilisation and autofocus are processed separately at maximum speed, allowing, for example, commands from the camera and AF motor to be evaluated at lightning speed and executed accurately. In addition to an MPU with built-in DSP (digital signal processor) for superior signal processing, Tamron has added an MPU dedicated solely to image stabilization (VC). The result is faster and more accurate autofocus and more consistent and powerful image stabilization (VC). The lens features a proprietary MPU with built-in DSP blocks for high-speed digital signal processing, enabling fast response to camera signals and superior autofocus performance.

The lens features the original Tamron VC (Vibration Compensation) system. With the addition of an MPU specifically designed for VC processing, it offers the best level of image stabilization available, * with performance to CIPA standard of 5 exposure times. ** You'll enjoy sharp images even when holding the camera manually and greater flexibility even in low light.

**Complies with CIPA standard. For Nikon: D810

The GM aspherical elements effectively correct imaging defects that are common in ultra-wide angle lenses, especially distortion and loss of sharpness at the edges of the image. Thanks to glass moulding technology, it is possible to produce members with shapes that cannot be achieved by conventional methods, which contributes to higher image quality. LD members help reduce chromatic aberration, which reduces image sharpness. Glass with a low dispersion index has less tendency to split the light rays into a spectrum of colours, which allows effective compensation for longitudinal and lateral chromatic aberration, which is a problem especially with wide-angle and telephoto lenses.

VC stabilisation significantly reduces blur caused by camera shake at low shutter speeds and handheld shooting. The VC mechanism uses its own actuator and algorithms to achieve an extremely stable image in the viewfinder with excellent motion tracking. Effectively reduces image quality degradation. The mechanism uses a three-winding system that electromagnetically drives the lens to compensate for vibrations, with the lens gliding smoothly on three balls with minimal friction - a simple mechanical design that is one of the secrets to the compactness of TAMRON lenses. In addition, the lens uses artificial intelligence technologies to automatically select the optimal stabilisation mode for video shooting.


The SP 24-70mm F/2.8 Di VC USD G2 lens combines technical precision with a design that focuses on intuitive handling, with an emphasis on detail and texture. The lens is made more user-friendly with innovations such as a clever mode switch design, an improved distance scale window and a precise and stable metal bayonet. For better protection when shooting outdoors, moisture-resistant seals throughout the lens body help protect your equipment.
*The construction is resistant to moisture, but does not completely prevent the penetration of water droplets.
