Nikon D40? Will this lens work on the Nikon D40?

No it will not. The d40 can only use lenses with internal moters, this lens does not have sigmas HSM motor so it is incompatable. Currenty the only macro lese you could use on the d40 would be the 105 VR (800$) i do believe.

Yes, it will mount and take photographs on a D40. The autofocus will not work though. The lens can of course be focused manually to take photographs, but realize that it is a limitation. Look for any AF-S lens to have working autofocus.

Yes, it will. I have a D70s and a D7000. Nikon lens will work on all of the DSLRs of Nikon. I bought it with a D7000 for my son and it takes incredible photos.

This lenses are great for Nikon D5200 D5100 D5000 D3200 D3100 D3000. I´d checked for D40 and found they can also fit. UYou may checked for vivitar lenses for the D40 then you can have a sure bet

It fits on my d40x and my d600 with no issues, so I imagine it would, as it is designed to fit Nikon Cameras. If anything, you could contact the seller or look up the lens on another site to see its exact speculations. Otherwise, I'd say you're in the clear. All in all, it has been a GREAT lens thus far, and I look forward to getting much more use out of it.

Since the D40 doesn't have in-body focusing motor, you would only be able to use it as a manual focus lens. Also, the effective focal length on your D40 is 122. I have a D300s and a D700. The focus is fast on the D700, slightly slower on the D300s. It is a superb lens, but overkill for a D40. Buy the DX 85 mm f/3.5 or the 85 mm f/1.8 for well less than half the price.

I would check Nikon's website for compatibility. If I can get my 30 year old manual, film-based Nikon lenses to work with my digital D-40X, I would think this newer lens should work with a newer Nikon digital SLR - Nikon is pretty good with compatibility and they are currently advertising even more modern Nikon SLRs with the same 55-300 VR zoom lens.

Yes. This lens will mount on any Nikon DSLR camera. Some of the entry level cameras do not have the focus motor and as such will not auto focus with this lens, however a D700 does have this so the lens will work perfectly. It also meters correctly and provides distance measurements for flash. It's a great lens.

Yes. This lens will work on this Nikon model. Very good lens, especially for portrait and some close ups....

Not a Nikon user, but understand if ordered with the Nikon mount the lens will work.

I don't know. Go to the manufacturers website and research. If it will work with a D40, it should work with a D3000.

Yes, this would be an awesome lens for the d40! Sharpest lens I think I've ever used

Yes this lens will work on your Nikon camera :) It is an auto focus lens also, so that will be a huge help! ENjoy!

Yes, this lens will mount to the F-mount of any nikon camera made for a very long time. Now, normally the D40 wouldn't *meter* with a full manual lens, meaning it would mount the lens and allow you to manually control aperture and shutter speed, but wouldn't provide you with automatic metering, BUT this lens contains an automatic chip and AI-P contacts, which, if I understand this correctly, will allow you full automatic control. The only thing the D40 won't do with this lens is autofocus, but then again, this is a manual focus lens! :P

The short answer is yes it will but it won't be an 85 mm lens on a D40 it will be a 85 x 1.4 (correction for sensor size) = 120 mm f/1.4. Heres some reference info for future consideration - https://support.nikonusa.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/16436/kw/D5000/r_id/116678

Yep, this lens will work great with almost any Nikon DSLR. The only cameras it will have a problem with are D40, D60, D40X, and some of the newer crop-sensor cameras that inherit the D40s lack of internal focusing motor. Every Full-Frame DSLR has this motor, so no worries with the D700. I used this with my D50 in the past and kept it when I moved up to the D800. It's a great lens and it accounts for over 95% of my landscape work.On a full-frame sensor, it can handle 1 normal-thickness 77mm filter without vignetting. I've used it with a Circular Polarizer and it starts to vignette just a little bit at 17mm. Yep, this lens will work great with almost any Nikon DSLR.

It depends on the filter size that is required for the lens you are using with the D40. For example, Nikon's 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6 lens will accept a 52mm filter so this lens cap will work with that lens. However, their 24-70mm 1:2.8 lens accepts a 77mm filter so this lens cap will not work with that lens.
