All-in-One Power for Every Scene
The Tamron 18-300mm f/3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD Lens is built to handle it all—landscapes, portraits, wildlife, sports, travel, and everything in between. Spanning a remarkable 16.6x zoom range, this compact lens covers the equivalent of 27–450mm on full-frame, giving you the flexibility to capture sweeping wide-angle views and pull in distant subjects with incredible reach. Whether you’re photographing soaring mountain ranges or catching split-second action, this lens ensures sharp, vibrant images across its entire focal range.
Travel-Ready Versatility
Lightweight and easy to carry at just 620g, the 18-300mm is a natural companion for photographers on the move. Its compact design makes it ideal for hiking trails, city explorations, or family outings where switching lenses just isn’t practical. With built-in Vibration Compensation, you’ll enjoy crisp handheld shots even in low light or at long focal lengths, opening up opportunities to capture moments that other lenses might miss.
Fast Autofocus, Smooth Tracking
Equipped with Tamron’s advanced VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor, autofocus is both lightning-fast and whisper-quiet. This makes the lens perfect for photographing fast-moving subjects like birds, pets, or athletes, as well as for discreet video shooting in quiet environments. Tracking performance is precise and reliable, ensuring that your subject stays in focus even at the 300mm telephoto end.
Close-Up Creativity
Beyond its reach, this lens shines in the details. With a minimum focusing distance of just 0.15m at 18mm and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2, you can get surprisingly close for wide-angle macro-style shots. This allows you to highlight textures, food, flowers, and other small details in ways that feel immersive and unique—while still incorporating dramatic backgrounds into the frame.
Optical Excellence Across the Zoom Range
Tamron has carefully engineered this lens with specialized glass elements and BBAR-G2 coating to deliver exceptional sharpness, contrast, and color fidelity. Ghosting and flare are minimized, even in backlit conditions, while the soft, natural bokeh makes your subjects stand out beautifully. No matter where you zoom, you’ll enjoy consistent, professional-level image quality.
Smart Features for Modern Cameras
Designed specifically for APS-C mirrorless systems, the 18-300mm is fully compatible with the latest camera features, including Eye AF, Direct Manual Focus, and in-camera corrections. Nikon Z and Canon RF users can take advantage of the Tamron Lens Utility™ software for quick firmware updates and customization, ensuring the lens evolves right alongside your camera body.
