I use it on an FZ 150. Don't know about a FZ 40. Try the Panasonic forum on DP review. They are real helpful there.

Yes, this fits the FZ-40. I use it with the Panasonic DMW-LT55, but it should work with any fixed lens having the same size threads. You may just need to try it out to see how "compatible" they are from a photographic perspective.

other web sites claim the LA 5 adapter works on the FZ40 and lets you use the two Panasonic lens and maybe a few aftermarket ones as well good luck, maybe try one in a store before you buy

Yes. Technically-speaking, all Nikon lenses ever made with the F-mount are compatible with all Nikon dSLR's. I have an old f/1 lens from the 50's that will work with my D300. But that's a bit of an extreme case. In your case, the 16-85 will work just fine, and is a phenomenal lens to boot!EDIT: I would also point out that Amazon has its own "fitting guide" on the page for the lens that will let you know if it works. You would be well-advised to use that. Don't trust the Internet. ;)

I would be interested to know this as well as I just ordered the FZ200. I am going to go ahead and assume it does since it works with FZ150 and order one. If it works, I'll let you know. If not, hopefully I can return it!

I have the T3i and I have no problems with it at all. It works with both of the lenses you just asked about. It works perfectly for me.

Yes, it actually works fine with all the Nikon lens I have. Some of the lens though, will only work in manual focus mode if the lens does not have a motor itself...

That is what I use it with. Works great with telephoto lenses. I use my 300mm F4 with it mostly.

Hello - it didn't work on my 28mm or the 35mm OM lenses. I expected it wouldn't for the 28mm b/c it had the shield that protruded from the rear of the mount. It worked on the 75-150mm since it didn't have the shield.

No it does not work with FD lenses as this is an M42 screw mount. Which is compatible with lenses like the Pentax Takumar screw mount lenses and other M42 screw mount lenses. Ypu will nred to buy an FD adapter with glass in order for FD lenses to work.

I have tried it numerous times with my FZ200 and can't get it to work. If you did, please let me know what I need to do.

Also, just found this on another eBay seller's ad for this lense:NOTE: Will only work in manual focus on the Nikon D40, D60, D3000, D3100, D5000, and D5100 series cameras. The lense is compatible with the D3000, but only on manual focus.

I am not familiar with the LZ40. The FZ70 has a full spectrum from 20mm to 1200mm, that cover wide angle to telephoto. It works ok in daylight, but poor results in low light. If you want clear photos, you need good lens, and bigger sensor (this camera does not have neither). Lately I saw a Nikon camera, that has similar specs, but did not inspect it. I spent more money and got the Sony NEX-5TL, the difference in quality is amazing.

Yes, no problem. Even all your MF lenses will work fine on the k30 too, though they will stay MF (there's a couple settings you have to change in the menu and on the mode dial switch). In fact, with an adapter, m42 lenses work great on the k30! I have a few of those and they are amazing to use especially with the feature called focus peaking that shows you what areas are in focus.

Not owning an FZ70, I can only answer PROBABLY. I have used it on a Panasonic FZ50, G1, GF1, and LX3. It worked fine on all of them.

I've totally forgotten since I sold mine with my long lens. Sorry. I can say that it worked well with both my 300mm 500mm.

If possible, try the lens with a second camera. Otherwise, I hope you retained the original packaging because you should return and exchange it for another one. I've found the 12-40 to be solidly built and is. Mine works flawlessly with both my Olympus and Panasonic cameras. Just get another one -- no company's stuff is perfect. 20+ years selling cameras taught me that.

The best way I've found to verify which lenses work and which adapters to use is check at both Fotodiox and RainbowImaging in the US. If they have an adapter for the lens, it probably works. You can then e-mail or call them for verification if you're not sure.
