[QUOTE="Nikon Photographer, post: 75516, member: 9882"] Be careful, the G type lenses were introduced back in 2000, the early one were basically D type lenses with the aperture ring removed, but still used the mechanical focus drive, which won't work on the D5100, This is the early 70-300 AF-G type lens that still used the mechanical drive of the AF-D type lenses :- [IMG]http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b290/GeeBee42/nikon_af_70_300mm_f4_56g_lens.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
