[QUOTE="Nikon Photographer, post: 150771, member: 9882"] You'll have no problems using those lenses with the D90, as the D90 still has a body mounted AF motor, so the older AF Nikkors work prefectly with it, I still use my 28-105 I bought with my F80 and it works perfectly. Your 35mm lens will still be a 35mm, as the focal lenth of the lens doesn't change, however as the sensor is smaller than a frame of 35mm film, it actually crops the lens and uses the cental part of the lens, which actually gives better images, you can also buy the DX Nikkors, which I have a couple, they are meant for use with the DX sensor Nikons and will vinette on 35mm or full size sensor Nikons, although there are a few full size that can be sent to use DX lenses. If you still need wide angle lenses, then you might need to get something wider than 35mm, an 18mm gives the same angle of view of a 27mm wide angle. [/QUOTE]
