Tamron Adds 17-70Mm F/2.8 DI III-A VC RXD Lens to Nikon Z and Canon Rf Mount Lineup Tamron has added their popular APS-C zoom lens, 17-70mm f/2.8 DI III-A VC RXD, to their Nikon Z and Canon RF mount lineup. This fast-aperture standard zoom, compatible with APS-C format cameras, has long been a popular choice for Sony and Fujifilm shooters, offering a broad zoom range and stellar image quality throughout. The Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8 first came to the scene for the Sony and eventually Fujifilm systems, where it quickly found a following among photographers and creators alike. Its maximum aperture of f/2.8 remains constant throughout the zoom range and meets the needs of users looking for better performance than the typical kit lens. Key features include Canon RF-Mount Lens/APS-C Format, 27.2-112mm (35mm Equivalent), Aperture Range: f/2.8 to f/22, RXD Stepping AF Motor, VC Image Stabilization, Rounded 9-Blade Diaphragm, Fluorine Coating, and Moisture-Resistant Construction. The fast, quiet, autofocus system, with both focus breathing and AF noise suppression, have been optimized for creators and video shooters along with the lens's VC (vibration control). Despite its class leading zoom range of 4.1x, the 17-70mm remains surprisingly lightweight and compact in form factor, weighing just around 19 oz (varies based on mount). This lens offers an effective focal range of approximately 24-105mm, similar to kit lenses found in full frame bundles. Each Tamron mirrorless lens in this line is designed with a 67mm filter thread, meaning users can use any effect filters like a CPL, pro mist, or diffusion filter across all lenses in their Tamron arsenal. The Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8 DI III-A VC RXD is the perfect upgrade from the standard kit lens, offering incredible image quality in various lighting conditions for video and still shooters alike. The lens will be available in both mounts on July 2, 2026. Upcoming Dividend • Jun 22
