28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD overview
The Tamron 28-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD is a 28–200mm f/2.8–5.6 zoom for full-frame cameras on Sony E-mount, announced by Tamron in June 2020. 39 cameras we track take it without an adapter. It has been followed by the Tamron 25-200mm F/2.8-5.6 Di III VXD G2; both are still sold.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits portraits and travel.
New, it sells for A$999 to A$1,199 at the 3 stores we track in Australia that have it in stock. Over the last 90 days it has usually cost A$987 to A$1,199 new.
Worth comparing it with the Sigma 20-200mm F3.5-6.3 DG | Contemporary, Sony FE 24-240mm F3.5-6.3 OSS and Tamron 28-300mm F/4-7.1 Di III VC VXD.
