Product Information
The Tamron 16-50mm F2.8 A VXD for Canon RF is a compact APS-C standard zoom that covers a 25.6-80mm full-frame-equivalent range. Its constant F2.8 aperture pairs everyday framing flexibility with low-light capability and expressive background blur.
Wide to short-tele coverage
From 16mm landscapes, architecture, and group shots to tighter everyday compositions at 50mm, this zoom is designed to keep a useful range close at hand. At the wide end, a 0.15m minimum focus distance opens up close-up perspectives.
Built for stills and video
Tamron's VXD linear-motor focus mechanism is specified for high-speed, high-precision, quiet autofocus. Moisture-resistant construction and fluorine coating add practical protection, while the 55mm filter thread keeps filter selection compact.
Ready for the bag
The Canon RF version measures 77.6mm long and weighs 315g. A front cap, rear cap, and hood are included.
