Tamron 35-100mm f/2.8 Di III VXD Lens for Nikon Z

High-Speed VXD Autofocus The employment of the VXD linear autofocus motor allows the Tamron 35-100mm f/2.8 Di III VXD Lens for Nikon Z to deliver quick, quiet and accurate autofocus performance that makes it ideal for use in still and video applications. The VXD system makes use of electromagnetic motion to deliver smooth and accurate autofocus, unlike traditional gear-driven systems. Optical Construction The optical design incorporated into the Tamron 35-100mm f/2.8 Di III VXD Lens includes moulded glass aspherical, XLDm and LD elements to optimise image quality and reduce chromatic aberrations. The comprehensive optical design features 15 elements in 13 groups. The 9-blade diaphragm features a smooth-edged bokeh in background highlights to assist in drawing attention to the focal point in the frame. Additional Highlights The Tamron 35-100mm f/2.8 Di III VXD Lens features a BBAR-G2 coating on the front element to reduce the effect of lens flare and ghosting to enhance contrast and clarity, even under backlit conditions. Further, the front elements feature a fluorine coating on the front element to help repel liquids and keep the lens element safe from other outdoor conditions. The 35-100mm also features a moisture-resistant construction for when working in inclement weather conditions. The exterior features a glossy back with improved abrasion resistance. This makes it harder to scratch and less likely to show fingerprints.
