For photographers seeking a high-quality, versatile lens that can cover a broad spectrum of shooting scenarios, the 18-300mm F/ 3.5 - 6.3 Di III-A VC VXD Lens for Fuji X is an innovative solution. This advanced all-in-one zoom lens is specifically designed for APS-C mirrorless cameras, offering a world-first zoom ratio of 16.6X and an expansive 18-300mm focal length range (27-450mm full-frame equivalent). This durable lens is expertly balanced with aspherical and special lens elements to deliver superior image quality across the entire range. Its unified 67mm filter size, consistent with most of TAMRON's mirrorless camera lenses, simplifies the process of swapping filters.
The lens's versatility extends to its maximum magnification ratio of 1:2, a remarkable feature for an all-in-one zoom lens. At the 18mm wide end, the lens achieves a minimum object distance (MOD) of 0.15 m ( 5.9 in), allowing for close-up shots with a working distance of just 5mm ( 0.2 in). This feature enables creative freedom, allowing you to capture your subject in detail while also including the background. From ultra-telephoto photography that leverages lens compression, to wide-angle shots that encapsulate vast landscapes, this lens supports a wide array of photographic expressions.
Its 18-300mm range provides the full-frame equivalent of 27-450mm, making it an ideal choice for both close-up and distant subjects. The 18-300mm F 3.5 - 6.3 VC VXD lens boasts best-in-class autofocus, offering speed, precision, and responsiveness that sets it apart in the all-in-one lens category. This is largely due to TAMRON's VXD linear motor focus mechanism, which ensures smooth focusing from the minimum distance to infinity, even at the telephoto end of 300mm. The linear motor also suppresses drive noise, making this lens perfect for both still photography and video shooting in environments where silence is crucial.
Equipped with TAMRON's proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) mechanism, this lens minimizes the effect of camera shake, particularly in the telephoto range. This feature is especially useful for handheld shooting in low-light conditions. The lens also utilizes AI technologies to select the optimal compensation characteristic for videography at focal lengths of 70mm or less. This lens comes bundled with a backpack, 67mm filter kit, camera strap, lens cleaner, cleaning kit, and universal lens cap tether, providing everything you need for your photography adventures. Whether you're capturing landscapes, portraits, sports, or wildlife, the 18-300mm F/ 3.5 - 6.3 Di III-A VC VXD Lens for Fuji X is a comprehensive solution for all your photography needs.
