Tamron 20mm Sony E Lens – Compact wide-angle prime with 1:2 close-up capability

The Tamron 20mm Sony E lens (Tamron Model F050) brings a 20mm f/2.8 compact wide-angle prime with 1:2 close-up capability to Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras. It is designed for photographers and content creators who shoot street, landscape, interiors and close-up work, and it forms part of Tamron’s Di III range for full-frame and APS-C bodies.

Why choose the Tamron 20mm 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 20mm range covers the focal lengths that matter most for street. Focusing is handled by Tamron’s OSD motor (Optimized Silent 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.
