Is this lens an auto-focus or a manual focus lens or both

It is both. It operates as an auto-focus lens with the Auto Focus feature turned on and may be focused manually when the AF switch is flipped to manual.

Agreed with below responses. It's both and a high quality lens that I enjoyed having it.

The lens itself is not auto-focus but it does have the contacts on the lens mount for the camera to auto-focus the lens.

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

The 18-55mm and the 55-210mm lenses have both options: manual and automatic.They have the motor in them for this.The tele len (big one) does not includes autofocus.But the overall package is great and the quality of the image is awsome.

I'm really not sure what that is but I absolutely love this lens! Manual focus is better than auto for extreme close up macro and I have taken some gorgeous pictures being an amateur. The hairs of a spider or in focus and the eyes of a grasshopper almost pop of the page. I cannot say how happy I am I made the leap and purchased this lens.

The lens has a switch between manual focus and auto focus. It has a sharp focus. It's is much better and faster focus than my Canon 85 mm f1.4. I love it. Not sure if I answered your question tho. It has IS and close focus (the 85 does not have either!)

No manual focus like a camera lens. However, the auto focus does well. The clarity is also good out aroundh maybe 10-15 feet from the camera.

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 is a manual lens but its not hard to use at all. You have to manually set the focus (easy enough) but you can still use the cameras internal meter to control exposure. Also, read your cameras owners manual. There are some neat tools available to make using this lens a little easier.

Yes. NOTE: unlike most lenses I've used/seen it has no auto/manual focus switch on the lens-so if you want to use it in manual you have to use the switch on the body.

It is a manual focus lens. I'm a Canon 60D user, but as far as I know it is consistent for all camera makers. I've read varying reviews on how to calibrate it, but the only thing that really does anything is the ƒ stop ring. The focus ring doesn't have the greatest effect, so I keep it at ∞. With all that said, it's a blast to use even with all manual features.

Unless the lens has been updated with the AF chip (like a Nikon version) it's a manual lens.

This lens is totally manual. You have to set the aperture and shutter speed manually. In fact, you have to turn off the auto focus and any other auto/electronic feature off in your camera

This is an manual focus lens and the other is a motorized auto focus. You just have to make sure the auto focus lens is compatible with your camera or it will not work. This is to the best of my knowledge.
