Yes
I have a Nikon D7000, an Fm2, FM10, and FM. I really would like a wide angle lens as i have gotten into landscapes. But I would need the lens to auto photos on the d7000 while being able to mount the other 35mm. Obviously I want a decent sharp good lens etc, is there a list anywhere?:)
 
You can use any AF Nikkor on the FM2/10. The cheaper lenses have thin, plasticky feeling focus rings, but most decent AF Nikkors made in recent years will be fine on your manual focus Nikons.

You don't mention budget, so it's hard to advise.
 
I've just found a really brilliant website that talks about this kind of thing. Letme know if any of you guys wants it. It's now a case of, I cant have every single lens made...so, which? ;):D
 
With the field of view/crop factor, you'll never have the perfect combination, unless you buy an FF DSLR.
 
Good point.. no aperture on G lenses.. easy to forget that when you no longer need it.

Another thing easy to forget is a DX lens will be next to useless too.

Yes I'm eying that one up. Ideal, shame it's not a bit wider for the d7000 but Icould live with that (excuse any lack ofspacing etc my keyboaard is not behaving)

There is the 20mm f2.8 AFD too as well as the hugely expensive 14mm f/2.8D AF Nikkor (around £1,000 used).
 
The 50mm is great to share on a film SLR and an APS-C camera as well. I use a 50mm f/1.4 AF-D as a normal on my FE2, and as a short portrait lens on my D7000.
 
Any Nikon lens will fit,but you do need an aperture ring,your best bet is to have a look at Nikon D range,they will work on both the D7000 & FM-2 :)
