Looking for a zoom lens that can capture architecture, street scenes, and the delicate inner workings of native plant life, all in one? Embrace the groundbreaking capabilities of the new Tamron 50-300 mm F/4.5-6.3 DI III VC VXD telephoto zoom, designed for Sony full-frame mirrorless camera systems. This versatile camera lens combines a wide focal length range, starting from 50mm at the wide end, with the lightest weight in its class at just 23.5 ounces. Featuring high-speed, high-precision autofocus, advanced optical performance, and Tamron’s proprietary Vibration Compensation (VC) mechanism, it ensures sharp, clear images even in challenging conditions.
Prior to the 50-300mm VC’s launch, Tamron dispatched a team of creative sales and tech representatives to put this versatile camera lens through its paces during an excursion in New York City. The group demonstrated the 50-300mm VC’s mastery in a variety of discrete scenarios, with each photographer sharing his or her unique perspective and highlighting the 50-300mm VC’s versatility in capturing the vibrance of the Big Apple.

Using the expanded zoom range on the new Tamron 50-300mm VC versatile camera lens makes it very easy to frame images quickly during street photography sessions. When I stumbled upon this red door at the Standard Grill, I realized that my composition needed a bit more color and point of interest. I patiently waited for the right person to walk through the frame—in this case, someone wearing a blue jacket, which provided the ideal color contrast to the red door. —Michael Pazandak

All of the sheets here were lined up on what appeared to be an old clothesline. The Tamron 50-300mm VC gave me the opportunity to stand back from the table unnoticed and zoom in to merge four different canvases into one image. I kept some of the brick above and below the artwork to lend context on where the photo was taken. —Kristine Bosworth

In this photo, I noticed the contrast between the two buildings: the sleek mirrored glass versus the crinkles in the reflection of the other building. With the Tamron 50-300mm VC, I set my shutter speed to 1/200 sec. to account for camera shake, framed the reflection, and captured the two buildings mirroring each other. —Charles Garcia

This image captures a dynamic scene at the Whitney Museum of American Art, where a tourist was focusing on a neon-lit sculpture using their smartphone. The 50-300mm VC versatile camera lens was ideal for capturing both the intricate details of the neon lights and the broader context of the surroundings. The lens’s unique close-focusing capability enabled me to frame the shot precisely in close quarters, highlighting the vibrancy and sharpness of the neon elements while maintaining a crisp focus on the smartphone screen. —Andrew Martin

The Tamron 50-300 VC lens offers me the freedom of being able to compose and create at will, so that when I press the shutter release, I achieve my desired result. I shot this image in black and white, as I knew the architectural aspect of the image would stand out for the repetitiveness of my subject. This lens is the perfect travel companion due to its compactness, weight, and overall size. —Mario Levesque

At the 50mm end, the 1:2 maximum magnification ratio on the Tamron 50-300mm VC allowed me to get up close to these purple flowers. And with Tamron’s proprietary Vibration Compensation (VC) feature, shake wasn’t a concern. I shot at a low F4.5 aperture to create a dramatically shallow depth of field. —Erica Robinson

Captured at 130mm, the zoom lens shot here features focal compression to help fold and flatten a scene of
emotional contradiction. Simplicity in line, form, and color is something telephoto zoom lenses do quite well. The Tamron 50-300 VC lens allows for nuanced composition at distances that would never work up close or with the usual street-level wide-angle lens. —Marc Morris

I’ve always been drawn to organized symmetry at work in our chaotic world, and this wonderful old building along New York City’s High Line presented a combination of clean, symmetrical lines, weathered textures, and a few exceptional elements that suggest the disorder of life. Anyone attempting to photographically capture the essence of this part of the city will want to be sure their camera setup can reach near and far. Enter the new Tamron 50-300mm VC. This versatile camera lens is light, optically proficient, and the perfect compact companion for this type of photography. —Ben Hutchinson
