  • Mount

    The type of mount that the camera body must have in order for the lens to be fully functional when attached to it.

    2. Some lenses can be used with older mounts from the same manufacturer, sacrificing certain functions (e.g. autofocus), or even with mounts from other manufacturers using an adapter.

  • Sensor Type

    Full Frame

    Photographic lenses designed for use on full frame sensor cameras. A full frame lens can also be used on a crop frame sensor camera, but with its focal length adjusted according to the corresponding crop factor.

    For example, a full frame lens with a focal length of 50mm (standard) on a camera body with a crop factor of 1.6 will function with a perspective as if it were an 80mm lens (telephoto).

    The reverse does not work as the optics of a crop frame lens are not sufficient to cover an entire full frame sensor, resulting in the edges of the frame being black (severe vignetting).

  • Maximum Aperture (f)

    Opening the diaphragm determines the amount of light received by the camera and affects the depth of field.
    2. The most open aperture of a lens is called the maximum. The more open the aperture (smaller f-number), the shallower the depth of field.

Description

The Tamron 12-20mm F2.8 lens for Sony E-mount cameras redefines ultra-wide-angle photography, offering an immersive perspective that only the 12mm focal length can capture. With a constant maximum aperture of F2.8 throughout the zoom range, it is the ultimate choice for architectural photography, landscapes, night skies, and astrophotography, even in low light conditions. Its exceptional optical construction ensures crystal-clear sharpness from corner to corner, effectively correcting aberrations and peripheral blur. At the same time, its incredibly compact and lightweight design provides top mobility, while the VXD linear focus motor guarantees lightning-fast, precise, and silent autofocus. Equipped with advanced controls, such as an aperture ring with a click switch and focus locks, it offers full control for both photography and video shooting.

Unparalleled Ultra Wide-Angle 12mm Perspective & Fixed Aperture F2.8

The Tamron 12-20mm F2.8 lens offers an overwhelming sense of scale thanks to its exceptionally wide focal range starting at 12mm. Unlike typical 14mm or 16mm wide-angle lenses, the 12mm perspective emphasizes depth and dynamic intensity, making it ideal for imposing architectural subjects and vast, expansive landscapes. Additionally, it maintains a constant maximum aperture of F2.8 throughout the zoom range, allowing for sharp images indoors in low light or under the night sky.

Top Optical Performance & Advanced AX & BBAR-G2 Coatings

The advanced optical design includes specialized elements XGM (eXpanded Glass Molded Aspherical), GM (Glass Molded Aspherical), XLD, and LD, which effectively suppress chromatic aberrations. It precisely corrects sagittal coma flare, ensuring that point light sources in astrophotography remain sharp at the edges of the frame. At the same time, the advanced AX (Anti-reflection eXpand) and 2nd generation BBAR-G2 coatings minimize reflections, ghosting, and flare, delivering images with high contrast, vividness, and crystal-clear clarity.

Extremely Compact Design, High Portability & Durability

The Tamron 12-20mm F2.8 achieves the perfect balance between top image quality and ease of portability. With a length of just 119.3 mm and a weight of only 570g, it is extremely lightweight and compact, significantly reducing the weight of your gear during hiking or travel. Precisely manufactured to micron-level accuracy and subjected to rigorous durability tests, it meets the highest reliability standards for seamless use even in the most demanding outdoor conditions.

Complete Set of Controls, Aperture Ring & Click Switch

Designed for intuitive control, it features a physical aperture ring with an iris lock switch for selecting control either from the camera body or the lens. The click ON/OFF switch allows activation of tactile feedback for photos or silent, smooth rotation for natural exposure transitions during video recording. Additionally, it incorporates an AF/MF switch, MF lock switch to prevent accidental focus shifts during long exposure shots, as well as a zoom lock switch at 12mm and 20mm.

VXD Linear Focus Motor & Amazing Close-Up Shots MOD 0.18m

Equipped with the advanced VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor focusing mechanism, the lens offers lightning-fast, perfectly accurate, and silent autofocus. At the same time, it stands out for its impressive close-up capabilities, with a minimum object distance (MOD) of just 0.18m at 12mm (with a 50 mm distance from the front element) and 0.28m at 20mm. This allows for the creation of dramatic compositions, highlighting the foreground subject on an exaggerated scale against the vast landscape background.

12-Blade Circular Aperture for Magical Bokeh & Star Effect

The lens incorporates a specially designed 12-blade circular aperture that offers excellent light management. When shooting near the maximum aperture of F2.8, it produces an impressively smooth, circular bokeh from point light sources. When stopping down the aperture for night city or landscape shots, it creates sharp and elegant 12-point starburst (sunstars) effects, adding a unique artistic touch to your photos.
