Overview
The optical configuration incorporates advanced elements including one XLD element, two LD elements, and two glass-molded aspherical elements, meticulously designed to yield impeccably corrected images with minimized chromatic aberrations and color fringing, resulting in enhanced clarity and color precision. Each element is coated with Tamron's BBAR coating, effectively curbing flare and ghosting for heightened contrast, particularly in challenging lighting scenarios. The agile RXD stepping drive motor ensures swift and virtually silent autofocus performance, catering to both still photography and video recording needs. With a minimum object distance of just 5.9 inches at the widest zoom setting, the lens facilitates impressive wide-angle macro photography, offering a distinctive perspective that accentuates nearby subjects while compressing distant ones. Furthermore, the f/2.8 maximum aperture delivers a shallow depth-of-field, producing pleasingly soft background blur, enhancing subject isolation. The lens boasts moisture-resistant construction to withstand adverse weather conditions, while a fluorine coating on the front lens element safeguards against dust, dirt, and smudges, ensuring consistent image quality.


A versatile ultra wide-angle zoom designed for FUJIFILM X-mount APS-C-format mirrorless cameras, providing a 35mm equivalent focal length range of 16.5-30mm. Its bright and constant f/2.8 maximum aperture ensures consistent brightness across the entire zoom range, granting enhanced control over depth of field.


XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion), LD (Low Dispersion), and GM (Glass-Molded Aspherical) elements work in tandem to significantly diminish color fringing, chromatic aberrations, and image distortion across the entire zoom range, resulting in enhanced clarity and color accuracy.
The application of BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating to lens elements effectively minimizes internal reflections, flare, and ghosting, thereby achieving heightened contrast and color fidelity.
The RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) autofocus motor ensures remarkably quiet, swift, and smooth focusing performance, catering to both still photography and video applications.
At a minimum focusing distance of 5.9 inches at 11mm, users can delve into vibrant wide-angle macro photography, where nearby subjects appear magnified while distant ones appear diminished. Furthermore, leveraging the f/2.8 maximum aperture creates a shallow depth of field, resulting in beautifully soft background bokeh details.
Crafted with moisture-resistant construction to withstand challenging weather conditions, and featuring a fluorine coating on the front lens element to safeguard against dust, dirt, and smudges.
The rounded seven-blade diaphragm enhances the overall bokeh quality, resulting in pleasing background blur.
