20-40mm F/2.8 Di III VXD (Model A062) Overview

The Model A062 is Tamron’s new large-aperture standard zoom lens for Sony E-mount cameras compatible with full-size mirrorless interchangeable-lens cameras. Starting with an ultra-wide angle of 20mm and covering up to the standard range of 40mm, it is the smallest and lightest in its class*1. Beautiful images are achieved throughout the entire zoom range, and it is useful not only for still image shooting but also for video shooting such as Vlog. The AF drive employs a silent and agile linear motor focus mechanism VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) to achieve high-speed, high-precision AF. Furthermore, with a minimum focusing distance of 0.17m at the wide-angle end and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.8, close-up capabilities are excellent, enabling wide-angle macro-like shooting.
The Model A062 is a new, large-aperture standard zoom lens that allows you to easily bring it out and enjoy shooting both still images and movies.

Main features
1. Smallest and lightest in its class F2.8 through large aperture standard zoom lens covering 20-40mm
