Tamron AF 20mm f/2.8 Di III OSD MACRO 1:2 for Sony FE

Tamron AF 20mm f/2.8 Di III OSD MACRO 1:2 for Sony FE
The Tamron 20mm F/2.8 Di III OSD M1:2 (Model F050) offers the fast operation and expressive power that is typical of fixed focal length lenses. It is the ideal choice as the first ultra-wide angle lens for any photographer. Developed exclusively for mirrorless cameras, it is lightweight and compact, making it a great travel companion when you need to travel light. The lens allows you to capture dynamic scenes with the perspective that only ultra-wide-angle lenses offer. With an ultra-short minimum focusing distance of 0.11 m (4.3 inches), you can get closer to your subjects than you ever imagined. In addition to the F/2.8 aperture, the lens is equipped with special glass elements, including LD (Low Dispersion) and GM aspherical elements, which effectively suppress optical defects. The lens delivers excellent image quality throughout the frame and captures fine details of objects. With a moisture-resistant design and a fluorine coating to repel dirt, you don't have to worry about shooting outdoors. If you only want to own one ultra-wide angle lens, the F050 is the right choice.

Zoom in to 0.11 m
One of the main strengths of the Tamron AF 20mm f/2.8 Di III OSD MACRO 1:2 for Sony FE is its ability to capture close-up shots. With this lens, you get closer to your subject than you ever thought possible. At a minimum focusing distance of 0.11 m (4.3 inches), it achieves a maximum magnification of 1 : 2. Never be frustrated that you can't get close enough to your subject again. This exceptional feature allows you to create compositions with dramatic perspective (closer objects appear larger, distant objects appear smaller) that are unique to wide-angle lenses. This allows you to capture original images with beautifully blurred backgrounds.

Extreme portability enhances the versatility of the lens
Take it with you wherever you go. The lens is ideal for travel and its light weight is perfectly suited to lightweight mirrorless cameras with full-frame sensors. The whole system becomes light, fast and easy to use. The lens has a very compact body, weighing just 220 g and measuring 64 mm in overall length. This makes it conveniently portable, easy to use and simple to compose shots with. Lens length does not change when focusing,so you can get close to the subject without worrying about the front member touching the subject. The lens has the same filter thread diameter (67mm) as other Tamron light lenses for Sony E, so you can conveniently change filters, caps and accessories.

Ultra-wide angle of view for creative images
The Tamron AF 20mm f/2.8 Di III OSD MACRO 1:2 for Sony FE offers the outstanding optical performance and image quality expected from a fixed focal length lens. Thanks to the careful placement of special LD and GM glasses, it effectively suppresses optical defects including chromatic aberration. Tamron's patented BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) coating minimizes flare and ghosting when shooting against the sun. Combined with the camera body features*, it provides high resolution across the entire image area and takes maximum advantage of the latest high-resolution cameras. Whether you're shooting street scenes, landscapes or architecture, the lens will help you fulfil your creative ambitions and capture sharp, colourful and impressive images.

Silent AF with Optimized Silent Drive motor
Autofocus uses a newly developed OSD (Optimized Silent Drive) motor to ensure quiet operation. Thanks to the redesigned and optimized AF unit, operating noise is significantly reduced, while focusing accuracy and speed are enhanced to ensure the lens focuses reliably even when tracking moving objects.

BBAR layer and circular screen
The BBAR coating minimizes reflections on the lens surface, suppressing unwanted veils and flare and ensuring sharp, high-contrast images with high quality. The aperture of the Tamron AF 20mm f/2.8 Di III OSD MACRO 1:2 for Sony FE is designed to maintain a smooth, circular shape even when stopped down two stops from full aperture. This creates a softly blurred background with a nice bokeh.

GM aspherical elements to minimize distortion and sharpness to the corners and LD elements to reduce chromatic aberration
The GM aspherical elements effectively correct imaging defects that are common in ultra-wide angle lenses, especially distortion and loss of sharpness at the edges of the image. Thanks to glass moulding technology, it is possible to produce members with shapes that cannot be achieved by conventional methods, which contributes to higher image quality. LD members help reduce chromatic aberration, which reduces image sharpness. Glass with a low dispersion index has less tendency to split the light rays into a spectrum of colours, which allows effective compensation for longitudinal and lateral chromatic aberration, which is a problem especially with wide-angle and telephoto lenses.


Fluorine coating to repel water and grease
A fluorine coating with high resistance and repellency to water and grease easily cleans the lens surface and protects it from dirt, dust, moisture and fingerprints, ensuring long-term protection for your important lenses. For better protection when shooting outdoors, the Tamron AF 20mm f/2.8 Di III OSD MACRO 1:2 for Sony FE is also equipped with a moisture seal. *
*The construction is moisture-resistant, but does not provide complete watertightness.
