Tamron 90mm f2,8 Di III Macro VXD Nikon Z-Mount

The 67mm filter thread lets me use my existing filters without a step-up ring, and the autofocus is snappy enough for quick handheld shots. It’s noticeably lighter than my older macro setup, which makes a big difference during a long day of shooting.

I've been using this macro lens for product shots and the VXD autofocus locks on so quickly that I'm capturing details I'd miss with my older lens. The 67mm filter thread made it easy to pair with my existing accessories, and the build feels solid without being heavy.

The compact size surprised me most—it balances perfectly on my Z6 III, and the 67mm filter thread makes it easy to swap ND filters without extra adapters. Sharpness wide open at f2.8 is stunning, and the VXD autofocus locks onto tiny subjects faster than I expected for a macro lens.
