Does the 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DC OS HSM Lens has a Macro system?

It says Macro in its name, so it should be able to focus on short distance. However for better performance use reduction. 36mm worked good for me - like microscope

I personally love this lens. But then, I am not trying to photograph bugs with it. My photos are perfect and have caught some great photos of hummingbirds I was shooting recently. I have a Canon T3. It does Macro.

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

I can't recommend this lens to anyone. Pictures are not clear and my Cannon 75-200mm zooms in closer to object than this lens. I'm totally unhappy with this Sigma lens.

That's a long answer that is best described here: http://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2013/04/sigma-30mm-f1-4-dc-hsm-vs-sigma-30mm-f1-4-ex-dc In short, the DC HSM is the newer model with improvements in build quality and manual focusing.

It attaches to the 67mm lens that I have. It works really good but I found it works best using manual settings. I do mostly portrait type photography, but its fun to use the macro for a change of "scenery". Have fun. Teresa S.

This particular lens does not have vibration reduction. Sigma lenses use the letters "OS" (optical stabilizer). I've attached a link for a Sigma 70-300mm with OS, but it doesn't have macro. http://www.amazon.com/Sigma-70-300mm-Multi-Layer-Nikon-Mount/dp/B002M3SOQK/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1415668500&sr=1-2-fkmr0&keywords=Sigma+70-300mm+f%2F4-5.6+SLD+OS+DG+Macro+Lens+with+built+in+motor+for+Nikon+Digital+SLR+Cameras

YES...... I would highly recommend this lens and it is now used as my general lens of choice. To use the macro, it is necessary to stand back further than most lenses but it still produces a very crisp image. The weight of the lens helps to keep the camera steady as it is weighted well making the whole unit more sturdy. So far I have no regrets.

Hi there... I have this lens, and love it, for its total flexibility - it is a perfect traveller's lens. It is not exactly a "macro" lens, though I have used it with success to make some close-ups. If you then buy a close-up set (1+2+3), I am sure it can handle many of your macro needs - though you should bear in mind that that is not what it was designed for, nor is it a lens with low aperture readings - i.e. - it will be darker than your average macro lens.

Correct; you unscrew the smaller lens to access the macro lens. These lenses are garbage, but to get the desired effect you have to be right on top of the subject you want the picture of.

Easy to do with a switch. Bear in mind macro is fixed at 43mm f 6. In use, works well.

its actually 2 lenses in 1. unscrew the macro lens from the fisheye wide angle lens and you're all set

I attached my macro lens to my Nikon kit 18-55mm lens. Just be sure to remove any filters you have on the lens first, otherwise the macro won't be able to attach. I think this is why the lenses are so cheap. You're getting the heavy duty lens functions (like autofocus, etc) from your primary lens, then the macro is just a fun add-on. If you only want a macro without having to attach it to another lens, you have to pay a lot more. I'm sure you also get more quality out of it, but given the price of this lens, you can still get some amazing pictures out of it.

Yes. In fact there are 2 macro modes. Macro and Super Macro. I've only had this camera for a few months now and am still just constantly amazed at the quality and feature set. I got very lucky and picked up one "like new" here on Amazon for only $250. It's a bargain. The only thing I've bought for it since is a really good FAST 8 GB card - Sandisk makes these, a spare battery (essential), and a folding lens cap that automatically opens and closes when you twist the lens to turn it on - about $11.

It is not designated as a macro lens, though I have taken some fairly close-ups which turned out out pretty good. I have not yet taken the lens to its closest focus limit since I do not do many really close-up photos.

Hello, there is an Auto Focus on this lens. Click the switch by AF - M to use Auto Focus (AF) however when shooting Macro, it's usually better and easier to manually focus. I hope this helped.

No- the focusing distance is much too far. Great lens- but not for macro work.

Yes it does. The lens I have is not a macro, so it didn't fit mine, but it is the right one for the Macro. Hope this helps.
