Is this lens compatible with the Nikon D 40?

Yes. It has a built-in AF motor and so works fine with the D40. It worked on my D40, D60, and is currently mounted on my daughter's D5000.

Yes it fully compatible with one tiny issue. Becuase the length of the lens and the height of the built-in flash , at 18mm, the flash casts shadow over the tip of the lens. Zoom to 24mm and the shadow is gone.

I don't know but you can check Ken Rockwell's website-it's excellent! He has a listing of Nikon cameras and the lenses that are compatible. I hope this helps, I do own the lens and I keep it on my Nikon 90% of the time, I couldn't live without it.

Yes, the D50 has a focusing motor, so all lenses for Nikon mount are compatible (not the case with all Nikon cameras). I have also used this lens with a D50 body, good combo.

No it will not. The D40 does not work with lenses that are just "AF", they must be "AF-S" and have an AutoFocus Motor in the lens.

Yes, it will mount and take photographs on a D40. The autofocus will not work though. The lens can of course be focused manually to take photographs, but realize that it is a limitation. Look for any AF-S lens to have working autofocus.

I would check Nikon's website for compatibility. If I can get my 30 year old manual, film-based Nikon lenses to work with my digital D-40X, I would think this newer lens should work with a newer Nikon digital SLR - Nikon is pretty good with compatibility and they are currently advertising even more modern Nikon SLRs with the same 55-300 VR zoom lens.

Yes it is. That series of lens is compatible with all "D" series NIKON cameras.

Hi. This lens was a perfect replacement for the lens on our Nikon D40. Like getting a brand new camera for the price of a lens. My guess is it works for the original D series.

It fits on my d40x and my d600 with no issues, so I imagine it would, as it is designed to fit Nikon Cameras. If anything, you could contact the seller or look up the lens on another site to see its exact speculations. Otherwise, I'd say you're in the clear. All in all, it has been a GREAT lens thus far, and I look forward to getting much more use out of it.

Yes, since the D40 is a DX camera, and the 55-300 VR lens is made for Nikon DX cameras, it is compatable. I use it on my D3200 DX camera.

The D40 only autofocuses with the latest AF-S lenses. This lens is not good for D40. You may want to read this http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/compatibility-lens.htm

Hi Paul. This lens perfectly matches on Canon D40. About the focusing type, unfortunally, can't help.

The writeup says it will fit your d40. I use the k1000 lenses With my D3100 and it does what it is supposed to do. Just remember that the lens will be manual only and you need to adjust for the added focal length.

Yes, this lens will be compatible with Nikon DSLR cameras except full frame units like the D3X or D4.

According to Tamron's compatibility chart on their website, this lens is compatible with the Nikon D7000.

Yes, the adaptor will mount a Nikon lens to any Canon EOS digital camera, including the 40D.
