## Description

The new 17-28mm F/2. 8 Di III RXD (Model A046) is a large aperture, ultra wide-angle lens for Sony E-mount full-frame mirrorless cameras. Model A046 features a filter diameter of 67mm (astonishingly small for a full-frame, large aperture, ultra wide-angle zoom lens) as well as an unprecedented light weight of 14. 8 oz. and diminutive length of 3. 9 in. The compact size provides excellent balance on the small profile mirrorless cameras and is easy to carry. The lens offers a large F/2. 8 aperture throughout the entire zoom range and delivers high-resolution and contrast edge-to-edge. The combination of ultra-wide-angle focal length, large constant F/2. 8 aperture and an MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 7. 5 in. at the wide-angle end encourages richly expressive and creative photography in a multitude of scenarios.

Review: Real Estate Photography Workhorse, Decently Sharp - I have been using this lens for a couple of years now with my Sony A7IV. I haven't had any issues. The build quality feels solid. The clarity is on par for what you would expect for the cost of the lens, which I think is decently sharp. I am a professional real estate photographer and this lens is my workhorse. It works great for capturing an entire room, though I do wish I would have gone with a 14mm for a bit more versatility.
Review: Great travel lens - I wanted a wide zoom for my a7c. The decision between the Tamron, sigma, and sony lens really didn't come to price for me. I wanted something as compact as possible. Frankly I was a bit worried if I'd not like the Tamron b/c I don't like cheap feeling lightweight gears. But I took the plunge and have no regrets. I use this lens for video, and I always use autofocus so the lack of the M/AF switch on the lens is not a factor for me. The lens is light, but does not feel cheap, unless you have it right next to the new Sony 12-24. I was really torn b/c I like the sony so much! But I ended up with the Tamron b/c it's 1/2 the weight and for my video purposes, I can't tell a difference in the picture quality. Perhaps to very picky photographers you can tell the difference. But I bought the a7c for the small size and not matter how much I like the sony lens, it's too heavy for my set up. I do wish the Tamron was a bit wider. The 12mm wide end of the sony would allow shooting in much tighter spaces. But, can't have everything. The Tamron is sharp. Great in low light. The focus is nearly silent...I can't hear it at all in my videos. And is less than 1/3 the price of the sony.

## Features

- World's most lightweight large aperture wide-angle zoom in its class (smaller than original F4 lens)
- Superb image quality high mtf performance (utilizing the camera body compensation)
- The RXD stepping motor unit is exceptionally quiet
- Moisture-resistant construction - fluorine coating
- Versatile, exciting combination when paired with the 28-75mm F/2. 8 Di III RXD (Model A036)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The perfect wide angle lens for pretty much everyone... at a price you can't beat
*by P***N on October 20, 2019*

For the price you cannot beat this lens. Yes, you're sacrificing 1mm on the wide end and 7mm on the long end compared to something like Sony's 16-35 f/2.8 GM, but at $899 there is nothing close that matches this Tamron 17-28 f/2.8. I'm not a technical photographer, and while I care about vignetting and distortion, it's not something I look at closely because it's easily correctable in Lightroom. With that being said, I really don't notice any extreme faults. Focus is incredibly fast, and at f/8 and beyond you're gonna get a sharp image across the frame. Bokeh at f/2.8, while not necessarily a popular necessity for a wide zoom, is very nice looking (see the first image I've included). Unless you absolutely need OIS or those extra mm on either end, this is the lens for you. At $1300 cheaper than the GM, just buy it - you won't regret it.
