Super
Can someone tell me if the Nikon AF Nikkor 80-200mm 1:45-5.6D lens be used on the Nikon D70s? Can I use all features D70s? I know it can do "auto focus". How about all different modes of the D70s, D300? What are the limitions when using AF, or ED lens on D70s; or D300? What exactly the difference between the AF lens and DX lens? And also, a Nikon ED AF Nikkor 80-200mm 1:2.8D zoom lens can work on D70s as digital lens? What are the limitions for the AF, or ED lens on D70s, or D300? Any professional advices will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Answer
1) Yes, the Nikon AF 80-200mm f/4.5-5.6D lens can be used without any limitations on the D70s, D300, D200, D100, D80, D70, and D50. On the D40 and D40x, it will mount and meter, but will only manually focus.
2) ED means "extra-low dispersion". It *does not* refer to a lens coating (Fhotoace is wrong), but instead refers to a special kind of glass (low dispersion) used in 1 or more elements in the lens.
3) AF lens mean simply an autofocus lens. DX refers to a lens that can only be used effectively on an SLR with the DX-sized sensor (smaller than 35mm film frame sensor). Non-DX lenses can be used on film cameras and all Nikon digital SLRs. Nikon calls a 35mm-sized digital sensor "FX" and an APS-sized sensor "DX" (APS was a type of film with a frame smaller than a 35mm frame). The D70s and D300 can use pretty much any AF lens, including DX lenses.
4) An ED lens is a higher quality lens than a non-ED lens and it just means it has that special element(s) in it. It has nothing to do with autofocusing.
5) The Nikon AF 80-200mm f/2.8D lens can work on the D70s just fine, as well as on a film camera. A possible limitation of this lens on some cameras may be some back-focusing at 200mm at close-focusing distances. The work around is to switch to manual focusing. The limitation is buried in Nikon lens compatibility charts, where the lens is incorrectly referred to as an 80-200mm f2.8S lens.

Getting a DSLR camera?
thegreates
Im interested in photography and I figured that it would be best by getting a DSLR camera. The thing is.. all I know is that they take beautiful pictures and the are expensive as heck... and the lenses aren't much cheaper either.
So basiclly Im a camera newbie and have no idea what I am doing.. Any help/ tips in choosing the right camera and what type of lense for an affordable price?
I need help understanding the dslr terms.. such as image sensor and ISO and the different lenses so I know what I'm looking at rather than just buying a random camera cause it's cheap

I would get the Nikon D3000 kit with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S DX VR Nikkor Zoom Lens is probably the best value and the most bang for the buck DSLR from Nikon or in fact any other manufacturer. The D3000 is a easy camera for a beginner to learn and use (has a nice guide feature), not to mention it just came out on the market so it will hold its resale value pretty well. Also, the D3000 kit lens has (VR) vibration reduction technology, thus making the D3000 an even better value. Take a look at the first link below for a great review of this camera and take a look at the second link for the best price ($529.00 with free shipping) I could find for the D3000 with 18-55mm VR lens.
The Nikon D40 which is in the process of being discontinued because it was first introduced in 2006 is also a nice camera, but for just a little more ($472.00 vs. $529.00) the D3000 gives you second generation technology with a nice big 3" LCD screen and VR lens.
One of the main reasons I prefer the Nikon's over the Canon's and Sony's is that they have a separate auto focus assist lamp built into the body (on all models) whereas the Canon and Sony use their flash to perform this function. In certain situations, using the flash as a AF assist lamp can interfere with your shot. I am surprised that Canon and Sony still use flash for AF assist on their lower end models because on their upper end models they have separate AF assist lamps.
Later, if you decide to use older 35mm film lenses, the thing you have to remember about using older 35mm lenses with the D3000 is that you have to multiply the focal lenght by 1.5 because the sensor is smaller than the original 35mm film. What this means is that a 18-200mm lens on the D3000 would become a 27-300mm lens and a 50mm lens would become a 75mm lens. Check out the third link for a compatibility chart of Nikon lenses and bodies.
The last four links are for websites that have photography and DSLR terms and definitions. Also the kenrockwell.com website is chock full of information.
