Ultra zoom with 22.2x magnification
Tamron 18-400mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC HLD that is built for the APS-C format gives photographers access to a zoom range throughout 22.2x, with focal lengths from wide angle up to telephoto. Simply put the ultimate lens for both everyday use and travel!

Get wide or get close-up. No need to change lens.
The huge zoom range covers most subjects that can be encountered during a trip and virtually eliminates the need to change the lens. Built-in image stabilization and weatherproof design also contribute to its suitability as an all-in-one solution for both everyday use and travel photography.
With a minimum focusing distance of only 45 cm, up to 400 mm in focal length, it is also possible to take close-ups of plants, insects and other small things that you can encounter during a day on the move. Maximum imaging scale is 1:2.9 – almost like with a real macro lens!

Fast and responsive
Tamron 18-400mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC HLD has been fitted with a specially designed focus motor, HLD (High / Low torque modulated Drive) that not only has high torque for quick and precise focusing at all focal lengths, but is also quiet and power-efficient. Another feature is the electromagnetic aperture that delivers precise aperture control with fast response, which is highly appreciated when shooting video.

TAP-in Console
Tamron 18-400mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC HLD is compatible with Tamron Tap-in Console. This allows the user to perform firmware updates, fine-tune the auto focus and image stabilization.
