does this lens work with autofocus on the d3000?

Your question is really does this lens have the built-in focus motor and I do not know. I used mine on my D-70 and D-300, both of which did not require the extra motor capability so me saying it worked well on mine doesn't answer your real question. I will do a little research and add to this answer later.

Yes it will. It will actually "work" on any Nikon DSLR camera, but it will only auto focus on those with a built in focusing motor. The D300 has a built in focuing motor so it will auto focus on a D300.

I'm certain it will; it works on all of our DX and FX cameras (D3200, D300S, D800). However with your D3000, as with all Nikon DX cameras, it will have the 1.5X factor in angles of view. Pretty heavy for handheld shots though, I highly recommend a tripod with it, this what I do most of the time with this lens; the plus side is that it's also a fast lens, so perhaps you can go to faster shutter speeds to reduce camera-weight related shakes.

Yes. This will fit on your camera but I am not sure if it will autofocus with the D3000 or D5000 series. This lens came on the Nikon film cameras from the late 1990s. It is a good lens with very good glass. I use it on my D800 and it autofocuses fine. I found more information on this lens at www.kenrockwell.com

Yes. The D50 will autofocus both types of autofocus Nikon lenses. I used to have the D50 and I'm sure of it.

Yes. The Nikon 55-200mm AF-S lens will auto focus and manually focus on the Nikon D3000 camera.

This lens will ,probably work but will NOT auto-focus on the D3000 (you will need to manually focus this lens). Also check out the Tamron 70-300 'VC' and/or the new Tamron 100(?)-600mm 'VC' which I think may(?) AF on your D3000. Consider upgrading your D3000 to the D5200 or better yet the D7100. I own and regularly use the D7100 and the Tamron 70-300 'VC'... both are wonderful.

I use it on a d3000 and d7000 . Only time I have issues with it is when it's used on my APO 150-500 sigma lens . The lens has trouble auto focusing .

The lens works fine on my Nikon D3100 camera with one exception; it does not auto-focus (which I know) and I am having trouble getting landscape photos in focus.

This lens does not have an AF motor but the D7000 has one so AF will work. However, the D3000 does not have an AF motor so this lens will not autofocus on the D3000. But you can still use this using manual mode in the D3000.

Yes, this model will work on the D3000 just be sure to order it with the Nikon connector.

This lens does auto focus if you have a camera with a built in auto focus motor. The lens itself does not have a built in motor so if you are trying to buy it for say a D5100 it will only work manually.

I have a d3200 it works fine. Autofocus a little slower than Nikkor lenses. I mostly manual focus as well.

Yes, this should work on a d3000. It affixes and mounts to the lens body just like any other SLR lens.
