@# Tamron AF 11 18mm f 4.5 5.6 Di II SP LD Aspherical IF Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras

This is the second Wide angle lens I own (first one was Nikon 12-24mm f4).

Built quality is different, Nikon has a better quality build and a internal focusing motor, Tamron has no focusing motor inside the lens (camera body has to have a focusing pin) and it its zoom and focus rings are looser (I have purchased it used, no electronics=used is good).



Overall I am VERY satisfied with Tamron (after using Nikon for a while), this is very inexpensive lens compared to Nikon wide angle lens, and it is 1mm wider.

Highly recommended for a budget minded user.

I also use HOYA MRC CPL (not the thin version), it functions great, highly recommended.
