I need a TF lens for my D3000 Nikon. My Quantry works only on manual but works fine on my D50. Will this auto focus on my D3000?

Hello No this won't autofucus on the D3000 because it doesn't have a built in autofocus motor.

Like the Nikon D40, D40x, D60 and D5000, the D3000 has no in-body autofocus motor, and fully automatic autofocus requires a lens with an integrated autofocus-motor.[4] it says so in wikipedia. the lens has no integrated motor, unlike all dx new lenses. to focus the 70-200 lens your camara needs an internal motor with a screwdriver-like thingy on the ring-mount. it must be a thing about 2mm diameter than spins automaticaly located somewere on the lower part of the ring. if such thing is not in your camara, then this lens will not autofocus. at most a green light will pop on the screen to tell you the focus is right.

LeeAnn know that all nikon lenses FIT on all nikon bodies but your body lacks an internal focusing motor in this lens becomes manual focus only. The D3000 series and the D5000 series do Not auto focus.

Hi. I purchased the same lens 2 days ago and yes, I am a novice using a D300. I have the same 'err' reading but when i switch and locked to f/22 i realised that the camera body electronically controls the aperture setting - which you can obviously set in 'A' mode. I assumed that the manual a f adjustment ring on the lens then was only for cameras that do no have electronically controlled A settings via the body.

Yes, it will work on the newer Df Nikon. Yes, to Autofocus too. Light weight lens with sweet f/2 aperture.

This is a type "G" lens which should autofocus with the Nikon D80. Reference this chart... https://support.nikonusa.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/57/~/what-lenses-can-i-use-with-the-d100,-d80,-d70s,-d70,-or-d50%3F

It only manually focused on my d600. Not sure if I bought a bad copy or what. I returned it and purchased the 16-35mm. Good Luck!

This lens will not auto focus on select, C-sensor bodies. However, it will on the D70.

You asked this same question some months ago regarding one of the other mid-price-range nikons. We did a little research and discovered that it will not autofocus with this body but it will do everything else. You will have to do your own research this time. My guess is that it will not autofocus with the D50 but..........inherently, ultrawides have a super deep depth of field and so you might find that you do not need autofocus at all.

I have not seen any reference in the D3000 data to say whether it can be used with Nikon pre-AF fully manual lenses. This would be the controlling factor on whether this would work on that camera. When used with the 1980s-90s vintage Series II Tamrons on the Nikon dF, none of the normal aperture metering works, however the image in the view field lightens and darkens as you move the ring, which indicates the blades are opening and closing, and depth of field changes. Exposure then is basically take a shot and see if it looks ok.

You can use this lens on your D3200 but only in the M(manual) mode. As this is a classic manual focus lens, it will not auto focus on any camera; including yours. Hope this helps. Thank you for shopping our store. We appreicate your business. Blue Penn Cameras

Most, if not ALL, made-for-Nikon lenses should work, Debbie. My son is using a Sigma 18-200mm AF lens on his D3000 and my Tamron 28-80mm manual focus lens works with it, too, although it has no auto-focus capability. The Tamron lens works well with my Nikon D40X.

Yes. The D50 will autofocus both types of autofocus Nikon lenses. I used to have the D50 and I'm sure of it.

Yes manual focus will work with this lens and the D3300. The other features, auto-exposure, aperture selection, etc, will work. Note you will need to set the Aperture lock on the lens to the lock position.

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

It will not work with Auto Focus because of the D3300's lack of a screw-drive (a small motor that drives the lens' focusing.) It can still be used by manual focusing, but there are better alternatives for your camera. Look for a lens with a motor in the lens. Hope this helps!
