Really Really Stupid Question - D70 and lens

[Ewan]

Hi guys.

I would like you to answer this and then forget I asked, cos I'm not sure I can live with the embarrassment :D

I have a Nikon d70, I'm going to buy the
70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G AF-S VR IF. I'm almost completely certain that it will all work ok but I just thought I'd check first :help:

There. That wasn't so hard :embarrassed::embarrassed:

Thanks :)

It should work no problems. Its a great lens got one myself a few months ago :)

Cheers. I didn't want to buy it and have to send it back!

Very much looking forward to getting it...Trying to photograph birds with a 18-70mm lens is slightly annoying! "Come on little birdy, just land on my hand...No, come back! D'oh!" :lol:

You'll find that all the autofocus lenses will work on your camera ewan. Notably type G and type D lenses. The ones that wont work are the older non-cpu lenses as there is no connection to tell the camera what the maximum aperture/focal length are.

have a look at THIS (http://www.nikonians.org/nikon/slr-lens.html) very useful chart to see which will and wont work ;)
