It does have auto focus right?

Yes, of course, but autofocus is (as always) a combination of camera AND lens. But you don't have to worry unless you are shooting with some esoteric or antique glass, which it doesn't sound like. Oh, and also you probably want the K-50, that's the current model, unless there's a good discount on the 30.

Yes, and it's better than that. Depending on the lens you are using, you can go autofocus, or manual with the aid of the "green dot" in the viewfinder. The focus indicator light works with most lenses I use when I have it on manual focus, so you know if you are actually in focus. Not much excuse for out of focus photos with this setup.

No not in auto-focus only in manual. I really prefer to focus mine in manual anyway now, just takes a little practice and you will be shooting like a pro in no time. I had one just like this and got broken but am getting another as takes great shots.

yes, and you can set it to auto spot focus or continuous focus or set it to manual focus

No, it's manual focus. It is very sharp a great close up. It also has a spot for a tripod. We'll worth the money

Yes this lens is full auto focus, but there is no way to switch from auto to manual focus.

It does. It has, like many, a "flower" setting which allows you to get right up close. Exactly how close I'm not sure. The technical specs probably tell you how close you can get before autofocus doesn't work. (which is what happens when you get too close)

Yes it does but you will have to manually focus it since the D3000 doesn't have a built in autofocus motor.

It does have auto-focus capabilities, although any macro work under f4.0 I would recommend manual override.

Yes it does. Open the camera app and click on the gear in the lower left. Scroll down to Focus mode and you can select either Auto focus or Macro.

It has auto focus, but the auto focus is not insanely fast. When I'm using it I never use auto focus I just rely on the focus peaking, but you can use auto focus on the camera. But only with lenses that have auto focus.

Yes this lens has auto-focus. I have used it on one outing to the Miracle Garden in Dubai and it was awesome. I have been trying to get a good solution to macro photography. I have tried extension tubes, close-up filters and decided to spend the money and try a macro lens. I am glad that I did. This lens in my opinion was well worth the money.

Yes it does. There is a tab for manual or automatic focus. Also, when the lens auto focuses you can rotate the dial and alter the focus point.

No its not defective,no auto feature on it.Its all manual and to focus you must get move in and out to the subject your shooting.Its hard to do with this set there are others that let you use the cameras settings that are better.

Sorry, no. There is no mechanism for auto focus on this lens (difficult for this type of usage anyhow).

The lense has auto as well as manual Focus. It has only manual zoom with very limited range as the specification says.

I tried my camera right before answering your question. If there is decent light, it auto focuses, but sometimes it takes a little while. You can zoom as you film, but it focuses faster and with more clarity when using the lower optical zoom range. I still love this camera... However, if you decide to buy it, make sure you get the fastest memory card for HD digital cameras (it only take the tiny ones), otherwise it is too slow taking pictures.

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.
