Tamron 12-20mm f/2.8 Lens for Nikon
Versatile Ultrawide Zoom
Designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, the Tamron 12-20mm f/2.8 Lens provides an expansive perspective for landscapes, architecture, interiors, astrophotography, and content creation. Its constant f/2.8 maximum aperture provides consistent exposure throughout the zoom range while offering greater flexibility in low-light conditions and depth-of-field control.
Fast and Precise Autofocus
Tamron’s VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor mechanism provides fast, quiet, and precise autofocus for both still photography and video. A minimum focusing distance of 7.1″ at 12mm also allows for dynamic close-up compositions with an expansive background.
Advanced Optical Design
The lens uses a 17-element, 12-group optical design to minimize distortion, chromatic aberration, and sagittal coma flare while maintaining high image quality. A 12-blade rounded diaphragm helps produce smooth bokeh and distinctive starburst effects.
Refined and Portable Design
Tamron’s Toned Profile Next design provides updated ergonomics and a refined exterior in a compact 4.8″ body weighing approximately 1.3 lb. Physical controls include an AF/MF switch, focus set button, mechanical zoom lock, and click on/off switch for the aperture ring, allowing smooth adjustments during video recording.
Professional Features and Durability
A built-in USB-C port supports Tamron Lens Utility software for advanced lens functions and customization. The lens also features a rear sheet-filter holder, integrated flower-shaped lens hood, moisture-resistant construction, and a protective fluorine coating on the front element for added protection in challenging shooting conditions.
