Tamron 17-70mm Sony E Lens – APS-C standard zoom

The Tamron 17-70mm Sony E lens (Tamron Model B070) brings a 17-70mm f/2.8 APS-C standard zoom to Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras. It is designed for photographers and content creators who shoot everyday shooting, events, travel and video, and it forms part of Tamron’s Di III-A range built specifically for APS-C bodies.

Why choose the Tamron 17-70mm Sony E?

An f/2.8 maximum aperture gives you control over depth of field for subject separation and helps in lower light, while the 17-70mm range covers the focal lengths that matter most for everyday shooting. Focusing is handled by Tamron’s RXD stepping motor (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive), delivering responsive autofocus for stills and quiet, smooth focus transitions for video. Tamron VC optical stabilisation helps you keep handheld shots sharp at slower shutter speeds and steadies the viewfinder image when shooting at longer focal lengths.

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.
