Hello all.

What good lenses am i missing out on as i can only use lenses with built in motor as i use a d40x?
 
Tricky....

Tokina 11-16mm ( I have but requires fixing :/ uses the af screw... so only manual on your camera )
105mm f2.8d, 50mm f1.4d basically the older lenses. You can still use them, just not AF on them.

Was there a particular lens you were thinking about or just seeing what other lenses are out there?

Not really i was just thinking of buying a body with a built in motor as my cousin wants to buy my D40x .

I was just trying to see if i had a in motor body would i have a better choice of lenses and maybe cheaper choices than a AF-S lens.

Thanks for the reply:)

The only ones that spring to mind are the 85mm f/1.8, the 50mm f/1.8, 80-200 f/2.8, 300mm f/4(but now comes as AF-S too ecept the 85mm) and a few of the other older primes.

All modern lenses are AF-S, so you might as well just buy AF-S lenses.
