Tamron 17–70mm F/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD lens, Canon RF

Tamron 17–70mm F/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD lens, Canon RF

The Tamron 17–70 mm F/2.8 Di III-A VC RXD is a versatile zoom lens for APS-C cameras with a Canon RF mount. A constant f/2.8 aperture across the entire zoom range facilitates shooting in varying light conditions and is suitable for both stills and video.

A wide range of applications with a single zoom lens

The 17–70 mm focal length range covers wide-angle landscapes and portraits at the longer end. The 19 cm minimum focusing distance also allows for close-up photography when you want to capture small details from close range.

Fast autofocus and image stabilisation

The RXD stepping motor delivers fast, accurate and smooth autofocus. The ‘focus breathing’ effect has been minimised, and Tamron’s VC image stabilisation reduces camera shake, particularly when shooting handheld or at slower shutter speeds.

Protection and optical performance

The optical design incorporates precisely positioned GM and hybrid aspherical lens elements, which are designed to maintain sharpness even at the edges of the image. The moisture-resistant construction and fluorine-coated front element help to keep the lens operational even in the most demanding conditions.
