Hi All,
I'm new to SLR photography and to these forums so I apologies for any silly questions.
I've recently bought my first SLR camera - a Nikon D5300 - and i'm looking to buy a lens that has good zoom. I'll be using it mainly for motorsports.
I've come across the "Tamron SP 70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di VC USD Lens for Nikon (A005NII)" which looks ideal and has positive reviews.
My question is: will the autofocus work with my D5300? I read somewhere that the lenses need to be marked AF-S because my camera doesn't have the integrated auto focus. Bit confused because a friend of mine has the older Tamron 70-300 lens (A17NII) and the auto focus works fine on my D5300 - and that's not marked AF-S.
