Hi - I need to know - will this camera will accept either an 18 - 55mm or 50 mm stock Nikon lens? Thanks!

I have an 18-55mm lens so yes on that and not sure on the 50. Still learning a lot on this camera. Hope i helped though;)

They accept Nixon A - lenses with a focus motor for autofocus. The 18-55 is AF-S. All Nixon 50 mm lenses are NOT AF-S but the AF type should work for correct exposure as manual focus lenses.

The stock lens is an 18-55mm zoom (3x), but there are other lenses that provide different capabilities. That is the nice thing about an interchangeable lens camera.

I'm not a Nikon user so I'm unfamiliar with that model. However I'd say if you have tried other non special lenses with this body and they have worked, then I would assume the 17-50 would as well. Sorry, I couldn't be of more help here.

While I don't have the newer camera, Nikon hasn't changed the lens mount or technology. It will work perfectly. The two combinations I've found interesting are with the 50/1.8 and the 70-300 VR zoom. The first yields a 135/1.8 with beautiful backgrounds and the zoom's long range is wonderful for some applications.

An 18-55 mm lens is generally used for portrait type photos as well as medium wide angle photos. I use it both for some nature shots as well as many family group photos. The only time it lacks capabilities is very late in the day when light is very low - depending on your camera you can dial up the ASA speed to overcome that.

Thanks Kin.Actually, I'm looking for something smaller than a reflex on which I could occasionnaly use my nikon lenses.After using a bit an oly e-p2, i'm a bit confused ; it's better than I thought, and has the IS build in.Does anyone know if nikon will release a micro 4/3 camera soon ?

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!

Have you got a 52mm lens for it like the 35mm f1.4 or the 18mm f2? In that case, YES ;)

I'm currently using this lens with Nikon D5200, just get the nikon mount and you're sorted. Very sharp results if you do your part :)

Not unusual that a this type of thing is in error, happens rather frequently on Amazon and other sites. I don't use Nikon, I use a Pentax K-5 IIs so I'm not that familiar with Nikon. I did check the Tamron site and there is a mount for Nikon so this will fit your camera. Even if you use the FX version of this lens it will still work. I remember reading somewhere that a DX lens can be used on a FX body and the sensor can be cropped for it, kind of neat. Anyway, if you choose to buy this lens, I have no doubt you will love it because it's a highly rated lens for Pentax and many others. I have one and it's unbelievably sharp with excellent contrast ( at least on my camera with my user settings), a limiter and, I think, a very good manual focus ring that has excellent resistance, a clutch would be better, but as is it's very good. Makes an excellent short telephoto at a 1.5 crop. Anyway, I hope this helps and if you choose to buy it you will not be disappointed.

I have a Nikon D7000. Also not a full frame. I love this lens. It should be fine for you.

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, just make sure to buy the Nikon lens mount. You won't regret buying this lens, very versitile, amazing photos and a great price too.

I suppose it has nothing to do with the cameras and all to do with that particular lens. For the price of the 50mm 1.4G plus it being a prime lens I figured it would focus super quick. It's funny that you bring up the 35mm 2.0 D lens having problems. I own that lens also and mine focuses just fine and much faster than the 50mm 1.4G. I'd love to hear what you find out from Nikon about this problem.

bought my nikon d40 lately. read good things about the camera through kenrockwell site. it helps me a lot to decide. now am thinking of buying the nikkor 18-200mm VR lense. btw the 50mm f1/4 lense and d40 they say is compatible. but am not so sure how to install the lense in the camera. any suggestions?

Absolutely. You have a Nikon; therefore, the Nikon 50mm will just click right onto the camera. Love the lens by the way. I would definitely recommend it.
