The 70-180mm F/2.8 Di III VC VXD G2 (Model A065) is the “G2” 2nd-generation successor to the 70-180mm F/2.8 Di III VXD (Model A056), a lens that won astounding acclaim from the marketplace and has been enjoyed by users around the world. The new model has been updated with TAMRON’s proprietary VC (Vibration Compensation) and the optical design has been completely reworked from the ground up to attain uncompromising optical performance throughout the entire zoom range. In addition, the VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) AF system faithfully fulfils the intentions of the photographer to a high degree of precision in steps of 0.005mm, less than one-tenth the width of a human hair to further enhance the tracking performance of moving objects such as vehicles and sports action, ensuring you never miss decisive scenes whether shooting still images or video. Also, the quietness offered by the linear motor system provides nearly silent performance when using the lens in conditions where noise needs to be minimized.

Wide Angle Lens
The lens was easy to install and the view/pictures taken using it are outstanding

Love it!
I do photography and videography so when I get hired on and I don’t necessarily want to be up close with my 28-70 this thing really helps and packs a real punch with clarity. I love that it’s a constant 2.8 as well.

Perfect for sports photography
I was in between the 70-200mm and this one but honestly this one is amazing. Its fast with AF and takes great photos and video of sports.

Punches above cost great product!!!
I have paired this lens with both my Sony fx3 and a73 for still photography and it’s amazing. Clean and quick autofocus. It is the depth of field I need without breaking the bank buying the g master series.
