Tamron developing first Nikon Z-mount lens

Tamron 70-300mm F/4.5-6.3 Di III RXD (Model A047)

Tamron announces the development of the 70-300mm F/4.5-6.3 Di III RXD (Model A047), a Nikon Z-mount system compatible telephoto zoom lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras. The lens is expected to ship this fall and pricing was not announced.

Tamron says the 70-300mm F4.5-6.3 telephoto zoom lens combines the world’s smallest size and lightest weight together with high image quality based on TAMRON’s concept of “all photographers should enjoy easy and comfortable telephoto photography.” The lens features Moisture-Resistant Construction for extra protection when shooting outdoors, and BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating that boasts excellent anti-reflection performance. Additionally, this lens can be used with the dedicated TAMRON Lens Utility software.

The 70-300mm F4.5-6.3 is the world’s smallest and lightest full-frame mirrorless telephoto zoom lens, coming in at a mere 5.9″ long with a maximum diameter of 77mm and weighing just 20.5 oz., claims Tamron.
