Tested and working. Autofocus is fast and accurate, VC stabilisation operates correctly in all three modes, and the zoom and focus rings turn smoothly with no play. Optics are clean and clear. Light cosmetic wear to the barrel, with more noticeable paint wear and scuffing to the tripod collar foot from use (shown in the photos). Comes with the HA025 lens hood, Tamron front cap, rear cap, rotating tripod collar with Arca-style foot, a ProMaster HGX 77mm UV filter and the original Tamron padded lens case. Please see photos for exact condition.
Tamron SP 70-200mm f/2.8 Di VC USD G2 (A025) – Nikon F Mount
Tamron's second-generation 70-200mm f/2.8, and a genuine rival to the first-party equivalents at a fraction of the price. The G2 improved on the original with faster autofocus, better stabilisation, closer focusing and fluorine coating, and it's exceptionally sharp across the zoom range. It's a complete working kit here, with the hood, tripod collar, filter and case all present.
Features
- 70–200mm constant f/2.8, the classic working zoom for portraits, weddings, events and sports
- VC (Vibration Compensation) with three selectable modes, rated to 5 stops: Mode 1 balanced, Mode 2 panning, Mode 3 maximum stabilisation at the moment of capture
- USD (Ultrasonic Silent Drive) autofocus, roughly twice as fast as the original version, with full-time manual override
- Close focus of 0.95m, unusually near for a 70-200 and genuinely useful for detail and ring shots
- Focus limiter switch (FULL / ∞–3m)
- eBAND and BBAR coatings to suppress flare and ghosting
- Fluorine coating on the front element to repel water and fingerprints
- Moisture-resistant construction with seals throughout
- Removable rotating tripod collar with Arca-Swiss compatible foot, so it drops straight onto most tripod heads with no extra plate
- 77mm filter thread
- Compatible with the Tamron TAP-in Console for firmware updates and AF fine-tuning, and with Tamron's 1.4x and 2.0x teleconverters
- Full-frame (FX) coverage, and about 105–300mm equivalent on DX
- Nikon F mount, with a built-in focus motor so it autofocuses on all Nikon DSLRs including entry-level bodies, and works on Z bodies via the FTZ adapter
