Camera Lenses

Di II: Lenses are designed for exclusive use on digital cameras with smaller-size imagers and inherit all of the benefits of our Di products. These lenses are not designed for conventional cameras and digital cameras with image sensors larger than 24mm x 16mm. Tamron's new high-power zoom lens is a photographer's dream come true - it is the result of Tamron's continuing mission to develop the world's most unique one-lens-does-it-all zooms to satisfy our customers' desire. While conventional 35mm film cameras required two lenses to cover 28-388mm, Tamron's new zoom is 13.9X, the world's most powerful zoom delivering enormous photographic freedom in a single compact lens. The life of a digital photographer has never been better.

User Reviews about Tamron 18-250mm F 3.5-6.3 AF Di-II LD Aspherical (IF) Macro Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras

Very good results.One problem ,takes longer time to focus than a Nikon. But for the price difference,worth it. -- Good ..Can be better

The Lens arrived right on time.
The Tamron 18-250 mm lens works great on my Nikon D80 and is perfect for every day use. -- Tamron 18-250 mm lens

As a for-pleasure photographer I don't want to carry multiple lenses and travel around. So this lens is exactly what I need. -- I got what I need

Solid lens, as you would expect from Tamron. Only thing missing is VR (vibration reduction). -- Great buy

Apparently, this lens is available in two versions for the Nikon. The AF018N-700 does NOT have a built in motor for AF. The AF018NII-700, does. If you want AF and your camera does not have an AF motor in the body, make sure you get the lens with the motor. Reading through the reviews on this page, it seems that people are reviewing the two different lenses here, thus the confusion. This lens does not have a motor. The AF works fine with my D300, but not with my D3000. -- CAREFUL! There are two Nikon versions of this lens
