depends on your purse.
$100 for a Raynox250 vs $400 for a Tamron.

Using the Raynox DCR250, your focusing distance is fixed at ard 12 cm, you lose infinity focus and any other focusing distance ard 12cm.

DCR250 has to be used with zoom lenses of 100mm and above and you have to consider that if you cannot use it on lenses with lens diameters larger than 67mm. Usable lens diameter range is from 43 to 67mm.

You will have much greater flexibility if you get the Tamron 90 but you will not be able to get greater than 1:1 magnification.

The choice is yours...
