Would a Tamron 28-75mm IF lens work with my Nikon D3000?

Hi, I'm looking at buying a Tamron SP AF 28-755mm F2.8 XR Di LD Aspherical (IF) lens and I'm currently using a Nikon D3000 which doesn't have an onboard AF motor. Will this lens have an onboard auto focus motor which will work with me D3000?
Thanks!

This is the lens I'm looking at: http://www.digitalrev.com/en/tamron-sp-af-28-75mm-f28-xr-di-ld-aspherical-if-lens-for-dslr-camera.html?search_category_id=7&manf=33&match_type=1

An onboard auto focus motor just worked with yourself? Oh brother.

This is a very good lens. It has it's own motor. Just make sure the lens is Nikon-mount when you buy it, and you'll be just fine.

As seen at
http://www.networksolutions.com/whois-search/digitalrev.com
digitalrev.com is registered in Hong Kong. If that is where you live, maybe it is worth a try. If it is not, I think that could be a risky domain to order from.

Currently Adorama wants $499 for it

although shipping is included, and there's a $25 rebate available.
That has USA Warranty.

From digitalrev.com it is $399 plus $31.32 shipping.

DigitalRev is an excellent place to order from. I buy all my equipment from them and I never have a single problem with anything.

And yes, it will work on your D3000. As long as you select "Nikon Mount".
If you do have a problem with it though, DigitalRev has a very good customer service, you can even return the lens within 14 days without a problem.
