50-400mm F4.5-6.3 DI III VC VXD - Nikon Z

TAMRON 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC - Nikon Z Mount

Presenting compactness that pairs well with Nikon Z mount full-frame mirrorless cameras, the TAMRON 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC
is an ultra-telephoto zoom lens that covers from the 50mm standard focal length up to 400mm ultra telephoto.
This is TAMRON's challenge to the standard 100-400mm. Featuring an 8x zoom ratio that begins at an unprecedented 50mm (commonly called the
"standard" focal length for full-frame cameras), this ultra-telephoto zoom lens is both smaller and lighter than conventional 100-400mm zoom
lenses yet offers a wider angle of view on the wide end for excellent versatility.

The 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC is amazingly compact with a length of just 185.8mm (7.3in) and a light weight of 1,180g (41.6oz).

In addition to its small size, it provides unparalleled high performance at all focal lengths. Despite the very high zoom ratio, superb image
quality is delivered across the entire standard to ultra telephoto range through the effective arrangement of special lens elements.

Equipped with TAMRON's VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor focus mechanism that offers excellent quietness and
responsiveness, plus TAMRON's proprietary image stabilization mechanism VC (Vibration Compensation), the lens delivers incomparable
versatility for all shooting scenarios.

Telephoto lenses are usually considered tools for photographing distant subjects only, but the 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC breaks that rule.
It provides up to one-half life-size (1:2) magnification during close focus, so users can enjoy the exciting world of
half-macro photography with excellent close-up shooting performance and an MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 0.25m
(9.8in) at 50mm.

The lens also offers ergonomic features that support comfortable operation, such as an enhanced lens design with improved texture and tactile
feel, and a Connector Port for the dedicated TAMRON Lens UtilityTM originally and uniquely developed by TAMRON.

In addition, for this 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC, TAMRON Lens Utility offers a "Focus Limiter" function.

An optional Arca-Swiss compatible accessory tripod mount is available for convenience when using a tripod.

All in all, the 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC is a highly portable, versatile zoom lens that ensures users never miss a shooting opportunity, from the 50mm
standard focal length up to the 400mm ultra-telephoto-and even closeups.

This is truly a breakthrough product that creates an entirely new category of ultra-telephoto mirrorless zoom lenses, another first for TAMRON.

Expansive 8x zoom ratio starts at 50mm "standard" and extends to 400mm ultra-telephoto

The TAMRON 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC is a game-changing ultra-telephoto zoom lens with an unprecedented 8x zoom ratio that covers
focal lengths from 50mm to 400mm. The 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC has an unprecedented wide-end focal length of 50mm, so users can create images that
not only capture a subject close up, but also utilize the background.
Leveraging the versatility of this revolutionary new lens configuration, users can enjoy shooting a broad range of subjects from
- landscapes
- wild birds
- animals
- portraits
- sports
- and small group photos
all with one single compact lens.

Absolutely superb image quality across the entire zoom range

The optical construction features 24 elements in 18 groups. The generous and effective use of special lens elements, including
two XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion), three LD (Low Dispersion), one GM (Glass Molded Aspherical)
and one Hybrid Aspherical lens elements, thoroughly controls aberrations including axial chromatic aberrations.

The TAMRON 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC also features TAMRON's legendary BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection Generation 2) Coating that minimizes
ghosting and flares and expresses the minute details of subjects even under backlit conditions.

No matter what circumstances you find yourself in, the 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC delivers clear and crisp images shot after shot.

VXD produces high-speed, high-precision AF and excellent focus tracking

The TAMRON 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC utilizes VXD linear motor focus mechanism. It combines high-level AF speed and precision, enabling fast
and accurate focusing from MOD to infinity.
The excellent focus tracking performance of moving objects makes it possible to capture sharp images even when shooting wild birds and action sports.

Plus, the lens is extremely quiet, so it's perfectly suited for both still and video shooting in conditions that demand silent operation

Compact ultra-telephoto zoom lens you'll take everywhere

Boasting a length of just 185.8mm (7.3in) and a light weight of 1,180g (41.6oz), the 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC is extraordinarily compact and easy to carry.
Despite covering focal lengths from 50mm to 400mm, this lens is both smaller and lighter than conventional 100-400mm lenses. It's ideal for those photo explorations when you don't know what you'll encounter.
This compact ultra-telephoto zoom lens unlocks your potential to capture brilliant images of the world around you with ease and precision

Equipped with TAMRON's proprietary VC image stabilization

For sharp, shake-free images even at 400mm, the 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC is equipped with TAMRON's proprietary VC.
This potent image stabilization technology effectively reduces image blurring due to camera shake. Additionally, using AI algorithms, the lens chooses the
appropriate compensation characteristics for videography at focal lengths of 100mm or less.

Half-macro photography with 1:2 magnification ratio from 50mm to 70mm focal length

Opening an exciting new world of photo possibilities, the TAMRON 50-400mm F4.5-6.3 VC is capable of extremely high performance when shooting close-ups,
particularly for an ultra-telephoto zoom lens. You can enjoy shooting with an MOD of 0.25m (9.8in) at 50mm, and half macro photography with a maximum magnification
ratio of 1:2 at focal lengths from 50mm to 70mm.

Moreover, at the 400mm telephoto end, the MOD is 1.5m (59.1in), providing a maximum magnification ratio of 1:4 for dynamic shots.

This lens allows you to get as close to your subject as you want and increase your photographic expression.
