I did do a lot of research into the lens. At the time I wanted something better than the 18-22 mm Nikon lens. I figured the 18-250 mm would give me a nice variety of ranges. It has a built in motor for auto focus and can shoot macro. I really like...

I shoot with a Nikon D50. I have a 18-55mm Nikkor and a 70-300mm Nikkor with vibration reduction. I shoot NEF files instead of jpegs which allow more "give" in Photoshop for shooting in low light. They are bigger files but they can offer more mani...

I love both as well , though i have not gone as far to "buff" calls and shoot away since home life and fire duties consume time but its a great second hobby to follow up with no doubt

I have a Nikon D40 with a Tamron 18-250 mm lens. Its a Digital Single Lens Reflective. Its by no means a professional grade camera, but it is a nice starter and can do a lot more than the point and shoot most prefer.

I have had a big interest in photography for almost 2 years now. When I graduated college I got a nice DSLR and have been hooked ever since. By trade I am an remote sensing technician. Which means I fly around and take pictures of the ground. Much...
