[QUOTE="Fred Kingston_RIP, post: 437553, member: 10742"] None of those lenses will auto-focus with that camera... They should meter, because the camera has a meter that measures the light passing thru the lens. The apertures may or may not work automatically, but will almost certainly work manually... Without specific model numbers/vintages for those lenses... it's hard to tell... Auto-focus is controlled by a focus motor that resides in either the body, and/or the lens. There are Nikon lenses that have the focus motor, that are made for that camera. That camera body does not have a focus motor... so you have to be careful buying even relatively new lenses for that camera if you want auto-focus... There's nothing wrong with manually focusing a camera's lens... ;) [/QUOTE]
