Will An Old Nikon Slr Lens Af/ae Work With A Digital Slr Camera?

Looking to see if these are compatible in any way. Thanks!

    Generally, you will get some functionality from them. Exactly how much depends on what lens you’re going to use with what camera. Post these details and people can better help you.

    If you’re meaning a Nikon DSLR than yes, It will fit, but it most likely won’t autofocus, depending on what your consider ‘ old ‘

    Yes it will work with Nikon DSLR
    AF and AF-D will mount, meter but not autofocus on the D40 and D60. They will autofocus on other Nikon DSLRs
    AF-S and AF-I will mount meter and autofocus on all Nikon DSLR
    AI and AI-S lenses vary in what they will do greatly with the camera. On the D100, D80, D70, D70s, D60, D40, D40 X will mount and function to take photos only in Manual mode and the meter will not work. They will not autofocus on any DSLR

    There is now way to tell, unless you tell us what lens you are talking about. I have old Nikon lenses that are not auto-focus and they work just fine on all my DSLR’s
