Frequently asked questions
Is the Tamron 17-28mm f/2.8 weather-sealed?
Yes, it features moisture-resistant construction with leak-resistant seals throughout the lens barrel and a fluorine coating on the front element to repel water and fingerprints.
Does the Tamron 17-28mm have image stabilization?
No, it does not have built-in optical stabilization (VC). It relies on Sony's In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS) found in most modern Alpha series camera bodies.
Can I use 67mm filters on this lens?
Yes, it features a 67mm front filter thread, which is standardized across most of Tamron's Sony E-mount lineup, allowing you to share ND and CPL filters between lenses.
Is this lens good for vlogging?
Absolutely. The 17mm wide end is perfect for handheld vlogging, and the RXD motor provides near-silent autofocus that won't be picked up by external microphones.
