Travel snap in Kitzbühel and Monschau by Martin Krolop with TAMRON 35-150mm F2-2.8 (Model A058) for Nikon Z mount
The TAMRON 35-150mm F/2-2.8 Di III VXD (Model A058) for Nikon Z mount is a remarkable lens that will inspire your creativity and prove to be a reliable tool for outstanding images.
This 35-150 mm F2-2.8, the first of its kind with an F2 aperture for Nikon Z cameras, opens up new possibilities in photography. Especially for Nikon users who want to maximize the high-resolution capabilities of camera bodies such as the Nikon Z9 or Z8, the lens offers a revelation in flexibility and performance. With a wide 35-150mm focal length range and high speed, this lens is the perfect multi-functional tool with no compromises.
The lens was put to the test during our outdoor shoots in the unpredictable weather conditions of Kitzbühel and Monschau. In such demanding situations, the 35-150mm F2-2.8 showed its true strength: with its weatherproof body design, perfect ergonomics, high speed and wide focal range, it was able to deliver images of breathtaking quality that would have been impossible with other lenses.
From dynamic close-ups to stunning wide-angle panoramas, this lens is the ideal choice for photographers who want to exploit the full potential of their camera without compromising on quality. In the often-unpredictable conditions of the mountains, where the weather can change from one minute to the next, the AF drive system which is a linear motor focus mechanism VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) provides extremely precise focusing to reliably capture every moment.
All in all, the TAMRON 35-150mm F2-2.8 lens is the perfect fusion of versatile design, outstanding performance and high-quality construction. With its wide focal range, high AF speed, and robust and Moisture-Resistant Construction body, it is an indispensable tool for any photographer looking for the best equipment for their creative work.
