Tamron SP AF 70-200mm f/2.8 Di LD (IF) Macro A001 - Good Condition | Professional Telephoto Zoom for Sony / Minolta A-Mount

The Tamron SP AF 70-200mm f/2.8 Di LD (IF) Macro is one of the most respected professional telephoto zooms ever produced — a constant f/2.8 workhorse that delivers exceptional image quality across the entire 70-200mm range at a price point that consistently outperforms its competition. Built for the Sony / Minolta A-mount system, it gives full autofocus compatibility with the complete range of Minolta Dynax and Sony Alpha A-mount bodies. LD (Low Dispersion) glass elements control chromatic aberration with precision, while the Internal Focus (IF) system ensures fast, quiet autofocus without changing the physical length of the lens. With built-in macro capability, it doubles as a close-up lens for product and detail photography. A truly versatile and professional-grade telephoto zoom. Serial number SR 002809.
