[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 552670, member: 24285"] IF you want it to auto-focus be sure it has a motor. Nikon uses AF-S for this. Tamron and Siggy use other terms for their lens internal motors. I've bought a few less expensive zooms and while they work fine on my D610, and work on the D5100 they do not autofocus on the D5xxx or D3xxxx series cameras. IF you are willing to learn to manually focus (and this is not a bad thing) that opens up a whole world of AF-D and older lenses many of which come in at your price range. I bought a Tamron 200-400 for example for $144 US in the states a year or so ago (since traded it on a Nikkor 200-500) but it worked OK on my D610. IF you insist on Autofocus it will narrow down your options considerably. [/QUOTE]
