Autofocus will work in a Nikon D5100? and I would like to know if there are a teleconverter, available for the D5100 and this lens

Well, it certainly should if you purchase it in a Nikon mount. :) It is an older design - optically superb, but not the fastest focusing lens. It has a two zone focus limiter to prevent racking the lens thru the entire focus range. If you are a sports/action photog, this lens will likely not be a great choice - buy the later version with OS and HSM focus motor. If you're more of a "slow photog" - like me - this lens is simply superb in terms of total lines of resolution, edge to edge sharpness and bokeh. I have two 105mm lenses (actually three - my Sigma 70-200 f2.8 APO DG HSM OS does 105, of course) and I will not part with the 105mm f2.8 EX DG, even though I have newer options. Re; the Sigma teleconverter - my Sigma 1.4x APO Tele Converter (EX DG) will not fit on this lens due to the depth of the rear lens element in the mount. Good luck and happy shooting! -Don at strimbu.photography

It probably will not work properly. Check the lens manual to see if it is compatible with a 2X teleconverter. It may focus manually but you will be disappointed with the results. The lens manual will tell you if it is compatible at all. The Nikon version of this lens will work and autofocus with the 1.4X teleconverter but results with the 2X are poor.

The owners manual does not specifically list the D5100 in the chart of "Useable cameras and available functions". I would email the manufacturers or a reliable vendor. I use the lens on a D70.

I have a Nikon D5100 and it worked seamlessly. Just take note that the electronics are different so you wont have the Auto Focus feature (or any other feature at all), meaning you have to use it in full manual control.This is a good choice for using Minolta lenses on your Nikon.

I have a D3100 and the teleconverter works but it is slow to focus. If I had to buy again I would not save the money and buy a nikon teleconverter it works better and faster.

It won't autofocus with the D5100. It only autofocuses on cameras that have an internal focus motor.

Yes, this is a terrific lens for the D5100. It will auto focus on this camera as it has the focus motor built into the lens itself. This lens is fantastic in low light situations. But it can be a bit tight in small spaces. This is the lens I love for newborn photography and with pets...Love the Bokah this lens gives.ETA: I use this lens with my D40x, D7000 and D700...

It works well on my D5100 which is essentially the same. But with no metering and manual focus. Just put the mode to "M" and shoot a test shots until the exposure is right. Takes great pictures, if you remember that it will be a little soft when wide open. It makes a great portrait lens because of the way it isolates the background.

Yes. I have a friend who has a D5100 and it works fine with his. It's made for crop bodies like the D5000. Set the aperture to f8 and the focus just short of the infinity mark and everything in your viewfinder will be in focus.

Yes, it will work. It is not an auto focus so you have to manually focus the lens. I bought this for my D5100 and it works fine and it's very easy to focus manually. If you're shooting fast moving people or objects, you will have to get real good real quick!

Yes, I think even auto focus should work! I use it a lot with my d90 and I love it! Great to defocus too! Check if d90 and d50 accept same mounts if yes,It should work the autofocus! i am almost sure that i needs only f mount for autofocus!

Hi, thanks question. This lens can not work autofocus for D5300. D5300 can work autofocus for "AF-S" model lens. Thanks in advance.

i know it works with the d7100. the lens' web site says it does work with the d5100. you can check this yourself by going to the lens and picking your camera on the page. also, i remember when i bought these 2 af lenses, i called nikon to make sure.
