Can you connect a Nikon D40 to this microscope without purchasing any additional attachment?

You must connect any camera through the third port(camera port) with an adapter from Amscope that mates to your camera by taking the lens off and bayonetting the adapter on the camera, the other end mates on the third port of the microscope. The resolution of the image is not as good as with regular pictures.

You could attach it to the camera but it would be useless without an electronic connection. This adapter has what you would need. Fotodiox Pro Lens Mount Adapter with Dandelion AF Focus Confirmation Chip, Nikon (includes G-type) Lens to Canon EOS Camera, for Canon EOS 1D, 1DS, Mark II, III, IV, 1DX, 1DC, 5D, 5D Mark II, III 7D, 50D, 60D, 60D, Digital Rebel T3i, T4i, T5i, SL1, and C300, C500 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003Y4F0MC/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_5Hzdvb0SNFGBJ

The question was: compatible with NIKON D40 (not D50). USeful information but not directly to what was asked...

I think it is. The D40 is a Dx formta camera, and this lens is design to Dx cameras, so. But i guess it's possible to check in any Nikon site.

I don't think so. Looking at the controls and inputs of D40, it lacks the needed 10-pin remote terminal.

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. I have the D40 and use this all the time. You need AF-S lenses for the D40.

Don't know why you shouldn't be able to - I have a nikon but it appears to be universal

I don't have a D40 so I really don't know it this works with it. There should be an accessory list in the owner manual that would tell you which remote release works. If you don't have a manual you can download one on Nikon's web site.

It comes with multiple connectors. I have a Canon 70D so I can't full speak to the Nikon D50 but I believe there would be a connector to make it work. Good luck. Great remote, btw

No you can't. But the product it's amazing, strong Check the size of your camera before.DSRL and BMCC works fine!

No. This is a Microscope attachment, not a telephoto lens attachment. There are telephoto lens attachments, but ensure you read the full description to ensure you are getting what you need.

Even if your purchased one of AmScop's microscope cameras, you would not be able to attach it to this microscope. The ports are too small to fit one of the microscope cameras. I suggest you upgrade to model M150A, M150B, and M150C.

No, it's just the connector for the lens to the body. Try Googling the exploded view of the parts for what you need precisely.

No, this remote is for cameras that have a 10-pin nikon remote connection. The D40 does not have a 10-pin connection.

With an adapter of some kind you should be able to, but because of the added weight you will have to balance the telescope again with the camera attached. To use a DSLR you would need a T-Adapter and T-Ring I think. For a normal digital camera with a tripod mounting hole you can use something like a SteadyPix mount, but it is quite heavy and combined with the weight of the camera may be a bit too much for the focuser on the telescope. Also, this scope is a "slow" F/10.1, so it may not be ideal for astrophotography, but I have taken some pics with my phone attached to it and they aren't horrible, but they aren't anything special either (except to me, haha) With an adapter of some kind you should be able to, but because of the added weight you will have to balance the telescope again with the camera attached.

Same thing. Works with a 40d just fine and I cannot think of any reason why it would not work with any camera so long as you have a place to plug it in.
