[QUOTE="LensWork, post: 3032, member: 1283"] To use the lenses from your D40 on a film camera it must be a late model Nikon. Your lenses are most likely "G" series which do not have a mechanical aperture ring, therefore they will only work on electronic film bodies such as the F5, F100, N8008, N90, N75, N65, N55. You can see a complete chart at: [URL="http://www.nikonians.org/nikon/slr-lens.html"]Nikon SLR Camera & Lens Compatibility Chart[/URL] . Edit: I almost forgot to mention the fact that your lenses for the D40 are also most probably DX lenses so they will not cover the full 35mm format. [/QUOTE]
