Rent NowTamron AF 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di-II LD Aspherical (IF) Macro Lens for Nikon F
All-in-One APS-C High-Power Zoom – 28-300mm Equivalent, Built-In AF Motor, Internal Focus & Close-Up Macro Performance (Well Used Condition / No Hood / Internal Dust & Early Stage Fungus)
The Tamron AF 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di-II LD Aspherical (IF) Macro is a versatile, high-power all-in-one zoom lens designed exclusively for APS-C format Nikon F-mount DSLRs (delivering an expansive 28-300mm equivalent focal length range). Equipped with an integrated internal autofocus motor, this lens provides responsive AF operation across all Nikon DX DSLR bodies, including entry-level series without in-body AF drive screws (such as the D40, D40x, D3000-series, and D5000-series).
Optically, the lens incorporates Extra Refractive Index (XR) glass, three hybrid aspherical elements, and two Low Dispersion (LD) elements to reduce optical aberrations, lateral chromatic distortion, and color fringing. Internal Surface Coatings minimize internal reflections, ghosting, and flare. Designed for all-purpose travel, landscapes, portraits, and telephoto action, the lens achieves a 1.5-foot (45 cm) minimum focus distance across its entire zoom range with a 1:3.7 maximum macro magnification ratio at the 200mm telephoto end. Physical features include an Internal Focusing (IF) architecture, a gold-accented Di-II series ring design, and a mechanical zoom lock switch to prevent gravity barrel creep during transport.
CONDITION DIAGNOSTICS & PHYSICAL NOTES
Internal Optics: DUST PRESENT / EARLY STAGE FUNGUS. Internal lens elements contain noticeable dust accumulation along with early-stage fungal growth, which may cause reduced image contrast, softening, or flare under direct or backlit lighting conditions.
Exterior & Cosmetic Status: WELL USED. The plastic composite barrel, rubberized focus and zoom rings, metallic mount, and lens casing exhibit clear surface scuffs, cosmetic wear, and heavy handling marks from regular use.
Missing Accessories: NO HOOD INCLUDED. Front bayonet lens hood is not included.
Mechanical & Electronic Status: FULLY FUNCTIONAL. Integrated autofocus motor drive, internal focus mechanism, zoom lock switch, and aperture coupling operate properly.
KEY FEATURES & PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS
28-300mm Equivalent All-in-One Zoom Range: Eliminates the need for lens swaps by covering wide-angle, standard, and telephoto focal lengths.
Built-In AF Motor: Enables full autofocus capability across all Nikon DX DSLRs, including entry-level bodies without internal drive motors.
Advanced XR, LD & Aspherical Optics: Features 1 XR, 2 LD, and 3 hybrid aspherical elements to suppress chromatic aberrations and maintain sharpness.
1:3.7 Macro Magnification Ratio: Supports close-up detail shooting with a 1.5-foot minimum focusing distance throughout the zoom range.
Mechanical Zoom Lock Switch: Secures the lens barrel at the 18mm wide-angle position to prevent creep while carrying.
