[QUOTE="BeegRhob, post: 743784, member: 48712"] My first DSLR was a used D3000, and I had to get a longer zoom for it. I bought an AF NIKKOR and thought that it would auto focus. You know, auto focus camera, auto focus lens? It didn't, so I had to manually focus, which I figured would be an awesome learning tool for me! I forgot quite often, oh well! Anyways, I think I have some of the lens thing down. If it says "AF NIKKOR" and not AF-S or AF-P, it will only auto focus with certain bodies. Pretty much, all of the D3000 and D5000 series will not auto focus with it, also throw in the D40 and the D60 in with the pile. Here is a chart from Nikon that will hopefully help as well! Hopefully my inserting a link works, lol.
