[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 181520, member: 13090"] Short answer is Nikon SLR lenses use the "F-Mount" bayonet and have since the 1950's if memory serves me. Your D7100 also uses the F-Mount so... Yea, Nikon, for sticking with one mount for fifty-some-odd years! Nikon, unlike some manufacturers, did not change mount styles with the advent of Auto-focus motors. In fact, if I have my history correct, The F-mount compatible lenses make up the largest system of interchangeable lenses EVARRR. So yeah, if you're okay with being *completely* manual on your D7100, go nuts dude. If it's an F-Mount, it'll fit your D7100. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"].....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
