Portrait zoom for Nikon Z
The Tamron 35-100mm f/2.8 Di III VXD A078 covers the classic portrait focal lengths of 35mm, 50mm, 85mm and 100mm in a single compact optic. A constant f/2.8 aperture maintains exposure across the range while delivering soft, flattering bokeh. The VXD linear motor provides fast, precise autofocus for capturing natural expressions. Fifteen elements in 13 groups ensure high image quality from wide to telephoto.
Check mount and sensor coverage
This lens uses the Nikon Z mount and covers the full-frame image circle, so it works on Z-mount mirrorless bodies with full-frame or APS-C sensors. Verify your camera body uses the Z mount before ordering, as other mounts are not compatible. The closest focusing distance is 8.7 inches at the 35mm end, enabling tabletop and detail work. Autofocus is driven by the internal VXD linear motor with no screw-drive coupling required.
Compact build and daily handling
At 4.7 inches long and 19.9 ounces, the barrel stays short and light for all-day shooting or travel kits. The constant length design means the lens does not extend during zoom or focus operation, keeping balance steady on a gimbal or tripod. TAMRON Lens Utility support adds wireless customisation via TAMRON-LINK for focus behaviour and firmware updates. The construction suits photographers who want a single portrait zoom without the bulk of larger f/2.8 zooms.

Questions about this item
Does the box include a lens hood, pouch or filters, or must they be purchased separately?
The lens ships with front and rear caps; a matching hood and any filters are sold separately.
Why choose this 35-100mm F2.8 over a prime at 35mm, 50mm, 85mm or 100mm?
One lens covers the four classic portrait focal lengths with a constant F2.8 aperture, saving bag space and swap time.
What does the 8.7-inch close-focus distance at 35mm actually allow?
You can fill the frame with small objects or shoot tabletop details from just 8.7 inches away.
