Tamron 17-50mm Sony E Lens – Wide-to-standard zoom

The Tamron 17-50mm Sony E lens (Tamron Model A068) brings a 17-50mm f/4 wide-to-standard zoom to Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras. It is designed for photographers and content creators who shoot travel, everyday shooting and hybrid photo/video work, and it forms part of Tamron’s Di III range for full-frame and APS-C bodies.

Why choose the Tamron 17-50mm Sony E?

An f/4 maximum aperture gives you control over depth of field for subject separation and helps in lower light, while the 17-50mm range covers the focal lengths that matter most for travel. Focusing is handled by Tamron’s VXD linear motor (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive), delivering responsive autofocus for stills and quiet, smooth focus transitions for video. Without an optical stabiliser the lens stays compact and light, and it works alongside the in-body image stabilisation found in many current camera bodies.

Built for Sony E-mount cameras

The Sony E version of this lens supports the camera maker’s autofocus features such as eye detection, as well as in-camera lens corrections, on compatible bodies. Always update your camera to the latest firmware for full compatibility. Tamron Lens Utility compatibility lets you customise lens controls and update lens firmware.
