does this lens auto-focus ?

Shawn, Yes this is an auto-focus lens. The focus-by-wire manual option isn't nearly as useful as its inherent auto-focus abilities. If you have this lens on a camera on a tripod, remember to turn off all the anti-shake features.

Yes, it does auto-focus. I now use it on a micro four-thirds camera which requires that I use an adaptor. This slows the auto-focus.

Yes. But if you are doing unmounted macro shots you will want to turn it off, or it will burn out the motor.

Yes it does. Being a macro lens and if long travel (eg min to max focus) it is not super fast.It is also quite slow on the EM5, but good on the EM2 and normal E-series DLSRs

Yes! It has a macro feature. This is an all-in-one lens that creates amazing photos!

Yes it does AF with your camera, great lens for the money, very sharp at f8 and f11, there is distortion, which can be corrected. Happy shooting.

Yes, if you mean auto focus. It also has VR, or vibration reduction, which can give you a sharper image if camera is handheld. I am very satisfied with the overall performance of this lens.

Yes and it will autofocus. I use it with my d600 and 24-70 f2.8 and 70-200mm. You just adjust the aperture on the camera just like any other lens.

No. They do not autofocus. But once focused they are very stable, even in rough conditions and changing temperatures.

The lens does auto focus when the camera and lens are in auto focus mode but you can also select manual focus if desired.

The 300 lens does auto focus if you have the camera set to that. Yes, there is a built in flash that pops up automatically. You can also turn the flash off if taking pics where you don't want it to flash.

It automatic mode the camera focuses fine. I haven't tried it in other modes yet, but if you have an autofocus lens I imagine it will focus for you fine.

Yes it does! That's what I have and I bought this lens. Works great just takes a bit longer to focus than other lens.

No it does not but it's a wonderful lens and I've never missed it. I use it for Real Estate Photography with a flash and it works great.

Hi Carol, Unfortunately, it does not. But it is an absolutely fantastic lens.

No it does not. You will need to set your camera to Aperture priority and then set the f/stop on the lens. Nor will it autofocus a lens. This is best used if you have an older fixed f/stop lens or are using a older macro lens.

I have this lens and like the wide-angle nice pictures it gives, but it does not have auto-focusing, you should focus manually. and I never heard about calibration (at least I never performed it) - just switched to M (manual) focusing when using this lens.

Yes, this lens does have the option for auto focusing. But I clearly find that manual focusing is the better of the two choices. Unlike some lens, this option to change from manual to auto focusing is done by sliding the forward most ring, the one closest to the len's end back and forth. No switch. There is no automatic zoom option. You have to rotate the ring closest to the camera body to zoom in and out. I guess that is why I prefer the manual focusing. But either way, I am very happy with the photos I have taken with this lens. Hope this helps
