SKU CH-3BMF-28H53 MPN G005S

Medium telephoto macro lens for APS-C DSLRs with fast f/2.0 aperture and 100mm working distance

  • Fast f/2.0 aperture creates beautiful background blur
  • 1:1 macro at 9.1 inches minimum focus distance
  • 100mm working distance gives room to light subjects
  • Two LD glass elements reduce chromatic aberration
  • 93mm equivalent focal length suits APS-C portrait work

Ideal for APS-C macro and portrait

The Tamron G005S is a 60mm f/2.0 SP Di II LD IF 1:1 macro lens built for Sony APS-C digital SLR cameras. It delivers a 93mm equivalent focal length and a minimum focusing distance of 9.1 inches. The fast f/2.0 aperture creates attractive blurred backgrounds for portraits and close-up work. A long working distance of 100mm gives extra space between lens and subject.

Passive optical design runs silent

This lens has no motor or fan, so it produces zero operational noise during focusing or aperture changes. Power draw is negligible because the mount supplies only the electronic contacts needed for aperture control. Internal focusing keeps the barrel length constant, preventing balance shifts while you compose. Two LD glass elements help control chromatic aberration without active correction circuits.

Fits Sony APS-C SLR mounts directly

The G005S attaches to compatible Sony and Minolta APS-C DSLR bodies without adapters, freeing the hot shoe and filter threads for other accessories. Full-time manual focus override lets you fine-tune focus instantly after autofocus locks. The 1:1 reproduction ratio is achieved at the closest focus setting, so no extension tubes are required for life-size macro capture.

Questions about this item

How do I mount the Tamron G005S on my Sony APS-C DSLR and what step is often missed?

Align the lens mount index with the camera body, rotate until it clicks, then set the aperture ring to the "A" position so the camera can control exposure; forgetting the "A" setting prevents metering.

What maintenance will the Tamron G005S need over time?

Keep the front and rear elements clean with a blower and microfibre cloth; the internal focusing mechanism is sealed, so no routine lubrication is required, but check the mount contacts occasionally for oxidation.

What limit appears first during extended close-up shooting with the Tamron G005S?

At 1:1 magnification the working distance drops to 9.1 inches, so lighting the subject without shadowing becomes the practical constraint before optical performance degrades.
