Lens Description: This is one of the world's lightest and smallest full-frame telephoto zooms, available for both Sony E and Nikon Z mounts. For landscape and travel photography, the Tamron 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 pairs well with today's lightweight mirrorless systems. The narrow maximum aperture of f/6.3 at 300mm limits the lens's utility for sports and wildlife photography, particularly in low light.
Photography Life Review Summary: The Tamron 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III RXD is a good lens with respectable image quality, build quality, and price. It doesn't reach the lofty heights of the best zooms that we've ever tested, but it's hardly the worst, either. Read the full Tamron 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III RXD Review by Photography Life.
