Tamron built its early reputation on all-in-one superzoom lenses, and the 28-300mm F/4-7.1 Di III VC VXD, released in August 2024, brings that formula back to mirrorless full-frame — a genuine 10.7x zoom range spanning wide-angle to serious telephoto in a single lens. It's the kind of range that used to demand real optical compromises, but modern coatings and Tamron's VXD linear-motor autofocus close much of that gap.
At just under 620 grams and 12.6cm long at 28mm, it stays easy to carry all day, with moisture resistance, a zoom lock switch, and a USB-C port for firmware updates built in. Vibration Compensation image stabilization and fast, accurate autofocus round out a lens purpose-built for travelers who'd rather pack one lens covering landscapes, portraits, and distant subjects than manage a bag full of separate glass.
