Tamron 35-100mm f/2.8 Di Overview

All-In-One Zoom

High-Speed VXD Autofocus
Tamron utilizes a VXD linear autofocus motor to allow the 35-100mm f/2.8 to deliver rapid and ultraquiet focus performance that benefits both photo and video capturing.

Throughout the entire zoom range, focusing is very responsive because VXD uses electromagnetic motion, unlike traditional gear-driven systems.

Tamron Lens Utility lets users customize autofocus behavior, such as selecting between linear or nonlinear focus ring control.

The 35-100mm f/2.8's impressive optical design won't slow you down. Weighing slightly more than 1 lb and measuring 4.8", this lens provides the zoom range and portability needed for travel photography. Its contoured profile makes it easier to grip and allows a more natural fit in your hand while capturing.
Optical Construction
The 35-100mm f/2.8 incorporates molded glass aspherical, XLD, and LD elements to optimize image quality and reduce aberrations. The comprehensive optical design features 15 elements in 13 groups.

A 9-blade diaphragm helps produce a smooth-edged bokeh in background highlights, which complements your portrait subjects and helps draw attention to your focal point.

The “stack of primes" for a new generation

By Randolph

Back when I was a Pentax shooter in the 1980s, my favorite and most-used lens for general photography was their 35-105mm f3.5 zoom. It was known then as "the stack of primes" because it was a constant aperture zoom could replace your 35, 50, 85, and 105mm lenses. Now Tamron has given us the modern version, and it's a winner. Sharp, fast-focusing, and covers the most used focal lengths. Sure, it would be nice if it were a little wider, but the lens wouldn't be as light and compact if it were. It's a solid alternative to the 24/28-70 midrange zoom. and you won't miss the wide-angle as much as you think you might.
