Compact All-in-One Zoom Lens Excels at Everything from Everyday Moments to Expressing Your Creativity

With its 8x zoom range, the 25-200mm F2.8-5.6 G2 is ready for any scene—from casual everyday snaps to sweeping landscapes at the wide range and sports photography at the telephoto range. Ideal for travel or outdoor shooting where compactness and versatility is key, it also excels at portraiture with beautifully rendered bokeh. Despite its fast F2.8 aperture at the 25mm wide end, the lens remains highly portable with a compact 4.8″ (121.5mm) length and light 20.3oz. (575g) weight, making it easy to carry and comfortable to use even for long periods. Designed for intuitive operation, the smooth, responsive zoom and focus rings deliver a seamless shooting experience in any situation.

Exceptional Image Quality—Captures Every Detail

Despite being an all-in-one zoom lens, the 25-200mm F2.8-5.6 G2 delivers consistently high resolution from wide-angle to telephoto, thanks to TAMRON’s advanced optical engineering. It faithfully reproduces textures and fine details—even the subtle nuances of skin and individual strands of hair in portraits—with striking clarity.

TAMRON’s BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection Generation 2) coating effectively reduces ghosting and flare, ensuring sharp, vibrant images across the frame. The lens also produces beautiful, natural bokeh that enhances subject separation and creates softly rendered backgrounds.

Fast, Precise VXD Autofocus—Great for Capturing Sports and Pets in Motion

Equipped with TAMRON’s VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme torque Drive), TAMRON’s fastest and most precise linear motor focus mechanism to date, this lens delivers outstanding AF performance. It offers quick and accurate focusing across the entire zoom range with minimal noise, so it’s ideal for both stills and video.

Compared to the first-generation 28-200mm F2.8-5.6, both AF speed and subject tracking have been significantly improved, allowing you to stay locked on fast-moving subjects even during zooming or burst shooting.

Whether you’re photographing children at play, energetic pets, or fast-paced sports, this responsive AF system helps you capture every decisive moment with confidence.

Outstanding Close-Up Performance with 1:1.9 Magnification—Enjoy Half-Macro Shooting

At the 25mm wide end, the lens achieves a minimum object distance of just 6.3″” (0.16m) allowing for an impressive maximum magnification ratio of 1:1.9—an improvement over the 1:3.1 of the first-generation model at its 28mm. This allows half-macro shooting at the 25mm wide end and lets you get closer to your subject across the entire zoom range.

From flowers and insects to small, highly-detailed objects, you can capture fine textures and intricate details with stunning clarity, expanding your creative possibilities for close-up photography.
