The 200-500mm f/5-6.3 SP AF Di LD (IF) Lens for Nikon from Tamron is an ultra telephoto zoom lens designed to bring distant subjects close. Its minimum focus distance is 8.2′ (2.5 m) and its maximum magnification ratio is 1:5 at 500mm. For a lens that covers such long focal lengths,it is relatively compact and lightweight. An internal focus system maintains its compact formas the lens does not extend when focusing. Its optical design consists of two Low Dispersion glass elementswhich minimize chromatic aberrations and provide sharp, high resolution, high contrast images. The lens is designated “Di” which stands for Digitally Integrated Design andmeets the performance characteristics ofdigital and film SLRcameras. When mounted on a DSLR camera with an APS-C size sensor, it provides a focal length equivalent of 310-775mm.

This lensfeatures a detachable Filter Effect Control Ring. This allows a filter to be rotated to the desired position with the hood still attached, enabling you to easily perform minute adjustments to a polarizer filter. The lens also includes a dedicated lens hood to block stray light from entering the lens and causing flare and a detachable rotatingtripodcollar and mount to provide stability when shooting at long focal lengths.

The lens has autofocus capability however because it does not have a built-in AF motor, AF will not function with any camera that requires a motor in the lens for autofocus.
