This lens will work on all Nikon D-SLRs made to date. It will autofocus even on the D40-D5100 cameras without in-body focus motors and it will illuminate an entire FX sensor.

Being a FX (full frame lens), I would say the D810. Maybe even there most expensive camera.

Note that while this lens will work on all Nikon DSLR's, because it is a FX lens, it will have a different effective focal length for DX cameras like your D40x, which introduces a 1.5x crop factor. That means the 50mm FX lens on a DX camera will provide a 75mm (50mm x 1.5) view because the DX sensor is smaller than the full frame FX sensor. That being said, this 50mm lens is still great for a DX camera and will be an excellent first lens for a FX camera when you upgrade (otherwise, you would have to buy another lens to use the full FX sensor).

The point is with 50mm 1.8 / D5000 you will only be able to use 22 aperture. It will not allow you to use 1.8!

Joe, It will absolutely work with the D300s. The issue is that this is a full-frame lens and that is a crop sensor so you will be paying for more lens than you are using. If you ever plan to go full-frame (D800, etc.) no problem, you'll be ready. The Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens is considered by many to be the best lens for the money in all of Nikondom. I think it is around $200 bucks. It is also full-frame so you will be ready if you move up.

Yes, it will work. However, "AF-S" lenses are motorized and are usually for cameras that do not have their own motors, like D5100. The D7100 has a motor of its own, and so if you look for "AF" lenses instead of "AF-S", you can find cheaper lenses with same specifications. For example, you can easily find 50mm f/1.8 AF for D7100. However, having said this, this lens should also not have any problems working with D7100. It is one of the best lenses I have.

I would start with the kit lenses. These would be two good lenses to start with, considering the fact that I am assuming the lens that came with the camera is the 18-55 f/3.5-5.6G. Just keep in mind that the 50mm f/1.8D will not autofocus on the D40, D40x, or the D60 so you will have to manually focus it.

Hi, thanks question. This lens can not work autofocus for Nikon D7100. Nikon D7100 can work autofocus for "AF-S" model . Thanks in advance.

Good Day; I own #2 Tamron lens the Macro 90mmf/2.8 is one of them the other is the 70-300mm f/4-5.6 SP Di with VC. I shoot with a Nikon D7000. The 90mm will work on the D5000 but ck the spec. to see if the AF will work on your camera; it does on mine. The thing you lose on using a Full Frame lens on a crop sensor body is a full f-stop which keeps u from allowing that extra light into the camera. I bought my 2 tamron lens for FX for one day soon I will step up to an FX body. So in the mean time I find other ways of getting the extra light I might need. The 90mm is a very good lens and Tamron is working hard to become world class glass. My next lens will be the 70-200mm F/2.8 from Tamron, sure they are not as good as the Branded Nikon but they are great lens and Lighter on the Back Pocket. Hope I helped you Oh One More thing; "If you are not going to become a pro photographer Nikon and Tamron make great lens made for DX bodies that are far cheaper.

Before answering, I tried the lens on a D70s. The lens works perfectly. I would, however, bring to your attention that this is an FX lens and the D70 has a DX crop sensor. As a result, this lens has will be closer to a 35mm field of view on a DX camera. The description indicates 84 degrees FX but about 60 degrees DX. If you do not need the features of this lens (aperture ring, etc.) and are simply seeking a 35mm lens, consider the 35mm 1.8 DX for about 60% of the price. Otherwise, I use this lens a great deal and my only real frustration is its tendency to ghost. It ranges from F/2.8-f/22, is metal and is small enough to drop into your pocket.

I believe that any newer nikon lenses that have the AF-S designation will work with the D5100. It is my understanding that the D5100 camera body cannot focus the lense itself so it relies on autofocusing lenses (AF-S) to get this done. You may want to investigate this further though.

i bought that lens for my d7000 and had great success with it . i gave my daughter the camera and lens and since have bought the d800 and liked the lens so much i bought it again for that camera . with that said i recently sold that lens and am in the process of getting the newest nikon lens the 80-400mm . to sum up my reply great lens but its my understanding that because of the wide range the sensor area is always affected but should work fine when used on your d700...i believe this lens is a great buy

This lens should work with any Nikon DSLR that uses AF-S lens. I use a Nikon D3100 & D3200 and this lens will make some amazing photos.

I have the D7000, 18-105, and 55-300 and the Tamron 2x converter works very well for me on them. I also have a Nikon 80-200 and it works very well on it as well. I love it. Gave me a great increase in focal length for a minimum outlay!

Yes, it works great on mine. It also works on the newer cameras too (as long as you don't go full frame), so when you are ready to upgrade, you don't have to reinvest in new lenses :)

dear kimmers: i am new to the nikon system camera and i really do not know if this lens would work on the d50. i just bought the d7100 and that is where my knowledge ends. sorry!!! ps. try calling a camera store; they would probably know.

Yes. The Aperture Control -Fotodiox M2-Nik(G) says the one I got- works with a 50mm f/1.8G lens, as well as other "G" prime and zoom lenses.It works with Nikon F mount lenses, even those that don't require an Aperture Control because they have its own aperture ring, like "D" series lenses.Please note that the Aperture Control doesn't have printed on it any aperture scale to know how much open or close is the lens diaphragm. To have reproducible results you must draw your own aperture scale on the Aperture Control, a not an easy task because there is just 1/6 of a turn (about 16°; 12mm or 1/2") between the maximum and minimum aperture points in the Aperture Control.

The lens says it's AF-S and according to this comparison chart it should work. http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/compatibility-lens.htm This is a pretty good site for everything Nikon, the guy is obsessed with it and can go into detail. Not the end all be all and there's obviously bias here and there but it's a good informative site that can make you aware of some details you may not have even heard of.
