[QUOTE="Fred Kingston, post: 762436, member: 10742"] F mount is the physical connect. That hasn't basically changed on Nikon lenses since 1959. Lenses typically have a focus ring, AND an aperture ring. That means those len's settings can be manually focused and/or manually adjusted apertures. Newer Nikon bodies use the electronics of the body to set/close/adjust the aperture... The "G" lenses do NOT have an Aperture ring, so cannot be manually adjusted. I can't keep up with Nikon's body/old lens combinations that work with/without aperture rings because as soon I say, "this works", someone jumps up and tells me it doesn't. I have a dozen Nikon bodies, none of them in the consumer levels where this is an issue. As an example, I'm sitting here with a D200 with a Nikkor 50mm 1.8G and the body works fine without the G's aperture ring. I don't think that's the case with the D3000,5000 series Nikon bodies.
