The overwhelming breadth of the 12mm perspective enables dynamic expression that seems to \"capture the entire expanse of a scene.\" With a bright F2.8 aperture maintained throughout the entire zoom range, this lens is poised to become the \"new protagonist\" for astrophotography and interior shooting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe optical system incorporates an XGM (eXpanded Glass Molded Aspherical) lens element, three GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) lens elements, and multiple special lens elements. This design effectively suppresses peripheral blurring and color fringing while correcting sagittal coma flare — a common challenge in astrophotography — ensuring high sharpness from the center to the extreme edges of the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite its exceptional imaging performance, the lens achieves a sophisticated balance of size and weight, measuring just 4.7” (119.3mm) in length and weighing only 20.2oz. (570g).1 While compact, it remains a professional-grade tool equipped with various switches and rings for superior operability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor autofocus, the lens features the VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive), a high-speed, high-precision linear motor focus mechanism. Furthermore, with an MOD (Minimum Object Distance) of 7.1” (0.18m) at the 12mm wide end, the lens offers outstanding close-up performance for creative versatility.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tamron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67036384526381,"sku":"AFA084S700","price":2299.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/5246\/3917\/files\/Tamron-12-20mm-f2.8-Sony-E.jpg?v=1784130385","url":"https:\/\/thecamerastore.com\/products\/tamron-12-20mm-f2-8-di-iii-vxd-sony-e","provider":"The Camera Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
