Review Summary

Fabulous glass. Just shot a round of self-portraits in home studio to push its' boundaries. I have found no issue with the lens from my aspect. Eye AF is no different than my high end SIGMAs. The lens is light and will replace a 35mm Sigma ART that weighed too much and was too limited for my street photography style. I have high confidence that this lens will meet my needs.

Excellent jack of all trades lens, sharp all the way through the zoom range, and light enough to carry everywhere. May be the only lens you need.

Great lens so far. Had to finally make the switch from "legacy" Maxxum/alpha mount to Sony E, so this is a start.

First thank you to Adorama for shipping the lens to me in time for my trip the Canyonlands National Park. This lens was the workhorse of the trip. A very versatile lens to capture landscape and zoom into those tight shots. So far great results.

Not the highest quality lense, but it is perfect for an all in 1 lense for a vacation or trip where yiu don't want to constantly switch lenses out. For the price, I don't think you will find a better lense for what it does

It's a great lens overall. Sometimes it takes a few more seconds to focus, but for the price point, is one of the best options.

Originally bought this as a travel lens as I was finding the reach on my 24-105 a bit too limiting, but based on the performance I?m seeing out of it so far I?m thinking the sony lens is going to be up for sale soon! Construction doesn?t feel quite as solid as the Sony G lens, but it doesn?t feel like ?cheap plastic? either. As my go-to hike and travel lens I?m also really enjoying the significant drop in weight.

The autofocus system stopped working after three months of normal use. And now they need months to repair the lens.

When I want to travel light with just one lens, this one does it all, and it does it very well. Even in low light, you still have a 28mm f 2.8, plus in crop mode it can zoom up to 300mm. There are so many lenses that I have that are better on their own but compared to this one, they are limited in their focal range or are a lot heavier. This thing does it all for travel or for when I know that I?m going to be ?lazy? about changing lenses because I?m going out to enjoy myself. Plus the most important part is that the images are great.

This is my do-it-all lens. When I'm out hiking this is the one I take with me so as not to worry about carrying 2-3 lenses on me. Images are superb for the price.

The large focal length range allows me to use this as my first lens for my a7iii since it is so versatile and I've been pretty happy with it so far. Don't think you can a better bang for your buck.

The Tamron presents itself very well. Thee feel of the lens is of quality with the a nice smooth zoom ring. The IBIS of the Sony A7RII works well with lens to allow full zoom shots with little effort. Very Happy with purchase!

Very versatile lens. I am more of a candid shooter and shoot in all sorts of settings and this lens does everything I expected it to do. I purchased this along with a new A7 III sony and it makes a nice combination for what I use a camera for. The manual focus is different on this set up, not sure if it is the mirrorless camera or the lens but that part does take some getting used to.

The lens are pretty good. Image quality is very good, auto and manual focus work perfectly, and finishing is very good. Since this is a review of the kit, I had to lower the rating from 5 to 4 stars. The lens do not fit inside the lens case, which is too small for that lens. The rest of the kit is okay.

The Tamron 28-200 gave me exactly what I needed for the my Sony A73. It is the most versatile lens that I could find for everyday handheld photography for my camera. I can shoot wide angle shots and then switch to telephoto without changing lenses, and still get excellent image quality. When I go to a place like the zoo, I can shoot close up flowers and butterflies, and then go to the plains, a wide open landscape area and zoom in on the elephants or take a picture with my wide angle of the whole scene. It is light weight, and versitile enough that I do not have to drag other lenses around with me to an event, or park. Best of all is affordability, it is less expensive than the Sony, and Sigma lenses, and close in quality to the images produce by those same lenses.

Bought this lens/kit to go with a brand new Sony A7C I bought at the same time. Based on the features and professional reviews I read, this seemed like a great fit for me. After a few days testing it out on a trip to the Alaskan Arctic, I can?t say enough good things about it. My only real complaint is the 28mm focal length is a bit odd, I wish it was an 18 or 24mm on the wide end. Overall though, it?s such a great lens, very fast, very sharp, and seems really well built. I almost regret buying the otherwise excellent Sony 28-60mm ?kit? lens, although the compact form factor is great for travel. Nice accessories included too, made it a great deal from Adorama!

Incredible all-in-one Lens!
By CONNOR N.
I am blown away by what Tamron has been able to accomplish with this lens. For an all-in-one zoom lens it is incredibly sharp throughout the focal range. The main drawback is the 5.6 aperture at the long-end but I don't see this being a problem so long as you are shooting in adequate light or using a tripod. I find that the IBIS in the Sony A7iii performs well at 200mm and the addition of lens stabilization really isn't needed. In addition to the focal range, another useful benefit is the ...

Great use scenarios & great quality
By Alexander G.
I am impressed by other online reviews which convinced me to buy this lens. The versatility is amazing. I've used it for some macros, which are beautiful and sharp. I've used it wide for landscape and nature where this really shines. And it has done very well for close-up and portraits of my kids. The medium telephoto range allows for some very creative nature zoom scenes. Overall, great great lens!
Innovative all-in-one lens that does it all
The TAMRON 28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD (Model A071) for Sony E-mount provides an unprecedented blend of optical performance and versatility. This compact, lightweight all-in-one travel zoom lens features a world-first F2.8 aperture at 28mm, delivering high performance across its entire range. The lens is 4.6" (117mm) long and weighs 20.3oz (575g), making it ideal for travel.
Optical performance is enhanced with special glass elements to reduce chromatic aberrations, ensuring sharp images from edge to edge. It excels in close-up shooting with an impressive minimum object distance (MOD) at both wide and telephoto settings. The RXD stepping motor ensures fast, precise autofocus, and the lens is built with moisture-resistant construction and a fluorine coating for durability. The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 captures everything from landscapes to portraits, making it a versatile and innovative choice.
Compact, lightweight design offering superior portability with all-in-one zoom versatility
From wide-angle to telephoto, all-in-one zoom lenses deliver a wider range of usefulness, from everyday snaps to travel and much more. That's why TAMRON pursued a high level of portability in the development of the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6, achieving a compact, lightweight design that's a mere 4.6" (117mm) long and weighs just 20.3oz (575g). The small size enables comfort and convenience, even during extensive travel, without the burden of a heavy camera bag.
The 67mm filter size is the same as other lenses in TAMRON's mirrorless lens lineup. This means that the filters such as circular polarizers and lens caps can be used for all models in the series, for greater convenience and less hassle during lens changes.
Maximum aperture at the 28mm setting is a blazing fast F2.8
The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 is the first all-in-one zoom lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras to offer a maximum aperture of F2.8. It maintains outstanding performance throughout the entire zoom range, and aperture values of F3.5 at 50mm, F4.5 at 100mm, F5.6 at 200mm. From landscape photography to portrait photos and snapshots, the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 delivers finely detailed images in a wide range of shooting situations.
The generous use of special LD and XLD lens elements (with properties close to those of fluorite) enables it to thoroughly minimize chromatic and other aberrations, while the application of BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating offers high anti-reflective benefits and reduces ghosting and flare that are otherwise likely to occur when shooting backlit scenes. Additionally, by leveraging camera functionality, the lens delivers excellent optical performance to match the high-resolution image sensors on the latest cameras, achieving beautiful images that are a cut above all-in-one zoom lenses of the past.
Close-up shooting performance that's astonishing for an all-in-one zoom lens
The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 delivers amazing close-up performance for an all-in-one zoom lens. At 28mm wide-angle, the MOD is 7.5" (0.19m) with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.1, and at the 200mm telephoto end it has an MOD of 31.5" (0.8m) with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.8. In addition to capturing stunning close-up images, you can leverage the blurred background bokeh utilizing a large F-number and enjoy unique close-up shots that were not possible with all-in-one zoom lenses until now.
High performance autofocus system means you'll own every shooting opportunity
The AF drive on the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 features the RXD motor unit to help you stay focused on the action. RXD uses an actuator to precisely control the rotational angle of the motor, allowing it to directly drive the focusing lens without passing through a reduction gear. A sensor that precisely detects the position of the lens enables high-speed and accurate AF, which is ideal when shooting continually moving subjects or recording video. And with a focusing system that is both smooth and quiet, the 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 lets you shoot free from stress not worrying the drive sound in a quiet environment.
The extensive zoom range means you can capture every situation
The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 for Sony E-mount covers a broad range of focal lengths in a single lens, starting from 28mm at the wide-angle end to 200mm at the telephoto end. This versatile range enables diverse photographic expression, from wide-angle shooting of expansive landscapes to close-up and compressive compositions in telephoto shooting. The compact, lightweight design makes it easy to carry the lens with ease, anytime, anywhere.
The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 is a very convenient lens that can be used for nearly any genre, from vast landscapes to snapshots around town, table-top photography and for professional-looking portraits.
Built with Mirrorless in Mind
TAMRON's new 28-200mm zoom is compatible with many of the advanced features that are specific to mirrorless cameras. This includes:
Fast Hybrid AF
Eye AF
Direct Manual Focus (DMF)
In-camera lens correction (shading, chromatic aberration, distortion)
Camera-based lens unit firmware updates
Features
Circular Aperture
A 7-blade diaphragm is configured to retain a smooth, circular-shaped aperture opening even when stopped down by two stops from the wide-open aperture. This produces a smooth-edged bokeh in background highlights.
BBAR Coating
The application of BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating for suppressing reflections on lens element surfaces minimizes unwanted flare and ghosting to deliver sharp, crisp, high-contrast images.
Zoom Lock Switch
The 28-200mm F2.8-5.6 RXD has a switch that can lock the zoom ring at the 28mm focal length if desired. This prevents the unwanted extension of the lens barrel due to the weight of the lens during transportation.
Moisture-Resistant Construction
For greater protection when shooting outdoors, leak-resistant seals throughout the lens barrel help protect your equipment.
Fluorine Coating
The front surface of the lens element is coated with a protective fluorine compound that is water- and oil-repellent. The lens surface is easier to wipe clean and is less vulnerable to the damaging effects of dirt, dust, moisture and fingerprints.
