Available in Sony E-mount and Nikon Z mount.
Superb image quality
The optical design of this lens comprises 15 elements in 12 groups. This includes four special glass LD (Low Dispersion) lens elements that effectively mitigate the tendency of light rays to diverge, providing excellent correction for both spherical and chromatic aberrations. The BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection Generation 2) coating significantly reduces ghosting and flare, ensuring the finest details of the subject are captured with exceptional clarity and precision, even in backlit conditions. Furthermore, this lens delivers outstanding macro performance, allowing you to capture beautiful images when used with APS-C format cameras, where the equivalent focal length is approximately 135mm, while the minimum aperture remains at F2.8.
Stunning bokeh
Composed entirely of spherical elements, the 90mm F2.8 MACRO allows you to enjoy exquisite circular bokeh. The combination of digital-compatible coating technology with soft, natural bokeh and precise rendering provides unmatched resolution performance from the centre to the edges. This blurred bokeh and a three-dimensional effect work together to highlight the subject and create an appealing level of subject separation, making it ideal for close-up enthusiasts, nature photographers, and portrait lovers.
Superior flat-field resolution
The 90mm F2.8 MACRO lens is meticulously designed and has been corrected to deliver exceptional edge-to-edge sharpness, consistent illumination across the entire frame, and minimal distortion. This feature is particularly crucial when capturing close-up shots, where the shallow depth of field can otherwise result in a loss of sharpness at the extreme edges of a flat subject. This feature makes the lens well-suited for photographing subjects such as documents, currency, artwork, and product packaging.
12-blade circular aperture
This macro lens' 12-blade circular aperture produces impressive circular bokeh and starburst effects. With a magnification range of 1:1 to 1:4, the specialised diaphragm ensures the bokeh remains perfectly circular with a wide-open aperture. Additionally, the lens suppresses vignetting in the corners of the image. The 12-blade design also generates 12 rays for stunning starburst effects when the aperture is stopped down, making it well-suited for capturing dramatic images of scenes with light point sources, such as birthday candles and city skylines at night.
Compact and lightweight
Just 126.5mm in length and with a maximum diameter of only 79.2mm, this lens fits comfortably in the palm of the hand and is easy to hold, making it compact enough to go out with this macro lens everywhere. Its lightweight nature, at 630g, also makes it more pleasant to carry for longer photography outings.
New lens hood design
A new structural lens hood is included, featuring a built-in sliding window for easy filter operation. PL, ND, and cross-screen filters often need to be rotated to adjust their effects mid-shoot, requiring the removal of the camera's hood. To counteract this, the new design permits photographers to conveniently rotate the filter through a sliding window. This enables smooth and precise adjustment without interrupting the shooting process.
Faster AF
A focus limiter switch offers faster focusing during AF shooting and quick refocusing for enhanced subject-tracking performance.
Workflow friendly
To enhance convenience and usability, this lens includes a focus set button that allows you to assign camera functions and customise via the TAMRON Lens Utility software. It also features a precise VXD linear motor mechanism for accurate manual focus operation. Additionally, the lens boasts a moisture-resistant construction and a fluorine coating, which improve its resistance to adverse weather conditions.
