[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 200965, member: 12496"] In the PDF manual, search for Compatible Lenses. It says: Auto extension rings (PK-series 11A, 12, or 13; PN-11. (D600, page 285). Then a couple of pages following that is the INCOMPATIBLE list. From the D600 manual, it says: [B]Incompatible Accessories and Non-CPU Lenses[/B] The following can NOT be used with the D600: • TC-16AS AF teleconverter • Non-AI lenses • Lenses that require the AU-1 focusing unit (400mm f/4.5, 600mm f/5.6, 800mm f/8, 1200mm f/11) • Fisheye (6mm f/5.6, 7.5mm f/5.6, 8mm f/8, OP 10mm f/5.6) • 2.1cm f/4 • Extension Ring K2 • 180–600mm f/8 ED (serial numbers 174041–174180) • 360–1200mm f/11 ED (serial numbers 174031–174127) • 200–600mm f/9.5 (serial numbers 280001– 300490) The E2 is not mentioned, but it is older, and there is no reason to imagine it has magic properties. The danger of non-AI lenses is that they can interfere and cause damage to the body, to new stuff like the electrical contacts added later. Like for example, the BR-2 reversing ring, incompatible now, and Nikon created the newer BR-2A which will not cause damage to newer bodies. Times change, all is not equal. [/QUOTE]
