Tamron A057 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD Ultra-telephoto Fujifilm X Lens

ABOUT THE PRODUCT

The Tamron A057 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD is a compact ultra-telephoto zoom lens designed for Fujifilm X-mount mirrorless cameras. Covering a powerful 150-500mm focal range, this lens allows photographers to capture distant subjects with impressive detail, making it ideal for wildlife, birds, sports and nature photography.

Despite its extended telephoto reach, the lens maintains a compact design measuring 209.9mm in length and weighing approximately 1.71kg, making it manageable for handheld shooting. On Fujifilm APS-C cameras, the lens provides an impressive full-frame equivalent focal range of approximately 225-750mm, offering even greater reach for distant subjects.

Featuring Tamron's VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor autofocus system and VC (Vibration Compensation) stabilization, the lens delivers fast, accurate focusing and stable handheld shooting performance.

KEY FEATURES

• 150-500mm Ultra-Telephoto Zoom - Powerful reach ideal for wildlife, sports and distant subjects.
• VXD Linear Motor Autofocus - Fast, precise and quiet focusing performance.
• VC Image Stabilization - Helps reduce camera shake for sharper handheld images.
• Compact Telephoto Design - Portable size for a 500mm-class lens.
• Tele-Macro Capability - Excellent close-up performance for detailed subjects.

EXTREME TELEPHOTO REACH

The 150-500mm focal range enables photographers to capture distant subjects with exceptional clarity. When mounted on a Fujifilm APS-C camera, the lens offers a 35mm equivalent field of view of approximately 225-750mm, providing incredible reach for photographing wildlife, birds and sports.

This extended reach allows photographers to frame distant subjects dramatically while maintaining strong subject isolation and telephoto compression.

ADVANCED OPTICAL DESIGN

The lens features an advanced optical construction of 25 elements in 16 groups, incorporating special lens elements to control aberrations and maintain image clarity throughout the zoom range.

This design ensures:

• High resolution across the frame
• Excellent contrast and sharpness
• Effective control of chromatic aberration
• Smooth background bokeh for subject separation

FAST & PRECISE VXD AUTOFOCUS

Tamron's VXD linear motor autofocus system provides:

• High-speed focusing performance
• Accurate subject tracking
• Quiet operation for both photography and video

This makes the lens especially suitable for fast-moving subjects such as wildlife and sports action.

IMAGE STABILIZATION FOR HANDHELD SHOOTING

The built-in VC (Vibration Compensation) stabilization system helps minimize camera shake, particularly when shooting at longer focal lengths.

This allows photographers to capture sharp images even when shooting handheld or in challenging lighting conditions.

CLOSE-UP & TELE-MACRO PERFORMANCE

The lens also offers strong close-up performance for an ultra-telephoto zoom lens.

• Minimum focus distance: 0.6m at 150mm
• Minimum focus distance: 1.8m at 500mm
• Maximum magnification: approx. 1:3.1

This enables detailed close-up photography of small subjects such as plants, insects and textures.

OUTDOOR-READY DESIGN

Designed for outdoor photography, the lens includes several durability features:

• Moisture-resistant construction
• Fluorine coating on the front element to repel dirt and fingerprints
• Arca-Swiss compatible tripod mount with strap attachment holes

These features make the lens well suited for demanding field conditions.
