Tamron 12–20mm f/2.8 lens, Nikon Z

Tamron 12–20mm f/2.8 lens, Nikon Z

The Tamron 12–20mm f/2.8 is a fast wide-angle zoom lens for Nikon Z full-frame cameras. It is particularly well-suited to landscape, architectural, astrophotography and video photography, where a very wide angle of view and consistent aperture across the entire zoom range are required.

Wide-angle lens for spectacular perspectives

The 12 mm wide-angle lens gives the image a strong sense of space and emphasises perspective. This focal length range is ideal for expansive landscapes, interiors and architectural photography, where you want to capture as much of the surroundings as possible.

Brightness for low-light and video use

The maximum aperture of f/2.8 is maintained throughout the entire 12–20 mm zoom range. This makes it easier to take photographs under a starry sky, indoors and in other situations where light is limited.

Fast focusing and customisable functions

The VXD linear motor focuses quickly, accurately and almost silently, even on moving subjects. Via the USB-C port, lens settings can be customised using the TAMRON Lens Utility software on iOS, Android and computer devices.
