Some guides (basic reference from D50, not D40):
1) DX Nikkor: All functions supported
2) Type G or D AF Nikkor: All functions supported
3) Micro Nikkor 85 mm F2.8D: All functions supported except autofocus and some exposure modes
4) Other AF Nikkor: All functions supported except 3D Color Matrix Metering II
5) AI-P Nikkor: All functions supported except 3D Color Matrix Metering II and autofocus
6) Non-CPU: Can be used in exposure mode M, but exposure meter does not function; electronic range finder can be used if maximum aperture is f/5.6 or faster Note: IX Nikkor lenses can not be used.

I think your lenses are fall under item 6. Meaning: there will be no exposure guide on the camera even if it is in M mode. A SUCK feature by Nikon on the entry level DSLRs..

I have a Nikon FG with the following lenses: Series E 50MM 1:1.8; Albinar 28MM 1:2.8 wide angle; Albinar 80-200MM 1:3.9 Zoom. I believe these are AI-S type lenses.

I am thinking about buying the new Nikon D40. My question is: Can I use my existing lenses with the D40? I understand that I will have to use manual focus. Is this possible? Practical? Any problems?

.... the "strange reason" is to save the batteries and keep the shutter from staying open while you load the film and advance to frame one. many people do this with the lens covered to avoid making extra waste exposures, since the labs will print these and charge for the prints. if the camera stayed in autoexposure mode for this, you'd get very long exposures.

Hi Sam, a bit late, so maybe you've found out by now: with the FG camera, the 60/125 led's will flash when you've inserted film and have not yet wound the film through to '1' on the film counter. For some strange reason, Nikon FG and EM will not meter until you've reached picture '1' - before that, the speed is always set to 1/90, hence both 60/125 are lit.
Greetz, Rob

My dad has an old Nikon AF L35 camera. It appears that the self-timer is permanently on now - has an automatic 10 second delay. We have no manual anymore. Would it be true that the self-timer is controlled by the lever on the front of the camera in the upper left corner? Moving it has no affect on the delay - so I fear it's broken and will be permanently on time delay. Is my analysis correct? Or is the timer controlled elsewhere and maybe there's still hope?
Thanks.

My son is using our old Nikon FG-20 in his photography class. We don't have the manual any more and cannot recall the last icon on the speed setting dial. After "1/1000" is the A, then there is an icon that looks like a soundwave, it could be about infinity, I just don't know. ANy help would be appreciated, as well as any idea where one could hook up with a users manual. Thanks.
