Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD lens for Fujifilm

Compact 750mm equivalent ultra-telephoto zoom lens

Although it reaches the ultra-telephoto focal length equivalent of 750 mm, the 150-500mm f/5-6.7 is still quite compact in size with a length of just 209.9 mm (8.3 in) and a maximum diameter of 93 mm. Even when extended fully to the telephoto end, the length of the lens is only 284.9 mm (11.2 in) so it can be used comfortably.



Amazing high image quality

The optical construction features 25 elements in 16 groups. The generous and effective use of special lens elements including one XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) element, five LD (Low Dispersion) elements, and two Hybrid Aspherical lens elements thoroughly controls aberrations including axial chromatic aberrations. And because the 150-500 mm f/5-6.7 is designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras, it delivers extremely high image quality and overall performance across the entire zoom range, in the center and from edge-to-edge.



VXD AF motor provides high speed, high precision, and excellent quietness

The 150-500mm F5-6.7 features the VXD linear motor focus mechanism. VXD delivers high speed and high-precision movement and ensures responsive performance. Additionally, the linear motor also reduces drive noise and vibrations produced during focusing (as compared to a conventional drive system), making it ideal for shooting both still photos and video in low-noise environments.



Tamron's acclaimed VC delivers excellent image stabilization

The slim, compact 150-500mm F5-6.7 is equipped with TAMRON’s VC mechanism. The lens features a VC mode selection switch with three settings (Mode 1: Standard, Mode 2: Exclusively for Panning, and Mode 3: Framing Priority) so the ideal VC mode can be invoked to match shooting conditions. This functionality delivers excellent image stabilization performance, enabling efficient reduction of image blur caused by camera shake.



Telephoto-macro shooting unleashes excellent close-range shooting performance

The 150-500mm f/5-6.7 offers excellent close-up shooting capabilities for an ultra-telephoto lens. The MOD is 0.6 m (23.6 in) at the 150 mm end and 1.8 m (70.9 in) at the 500 mm telephoto end. The maximum magnification ratio at 150 mm is exceptionally high at 1:3.1 (the full-frame equivalent of 1:2.1). Users can shoot powerful telephoto-macro images of subjects including flowers and insects while maintaining a reasonable shooting distance — closer than you can get with conventional ultratelephoto zoom lenses.
