Will autofocus work with my D3100?

I'm almost certain the D3100 does NOT have a focus motor and will NOT auto focus this lens.

I don't think the autofocus will work on the d3300, but I never use autofocus with macro so it doesn't matter if that is what you want to use it for.

Yes the D3200 like my D3100 accepts the lens with the AF auto focus. I like my lens because it's the only lens I use now. No more losing shots while changing lens.

Yes, if you buy the Nikon mount version. It is a manual focus lens, so autofocus will not work. Auto aperture should be OK.

This should work fine with d3100. It works great on my d5100, which is essentially the same camera with just a few extra features. This lens is far superior to the ones that come with the camera kits. Hope this helps.

I doubt the autofocus is compatible with the D3000. Check that carefully. The lens works beautifully with my D300 and I am really happy with the image quality. Reviews were very positive on the lens and I would support that opinion.

Here is a chart showing what can be used with the D3100:http://www.nikonians.org/nikon/slr-lens.htmlBasically, you can buy this lens, but you'll need to manually focus. One lense close to the 50mm above, is the 35mm:Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX Lens for Nikon Digital SLR CamerasThis one will autofocus with the D3100. Hope this helps.

You can buy a lens that is not DX and many will work fine. This one above will not auto focus. The Nikon AF and AF-D will not work on a camera that does not have an internal focus motor, like the D3100. The later lenses, AF-S, will work and auto focus. If the lens is an FX you will not get an image that is as wide and tall as what you see in the finder on a DX camera. You will get a good sharp image but you must compose more carefully to avoid the DX sensor cropping out vital parts of the image the FX lens can see.

On the D3100, this lens will not autofocus because it does not have its own internal focusing mechanism. I believe the D3200 is a newer version of the D3100 and also requires a lens with its own SWM ("silent wave motor") for autofocus. Thus, you can use this on your D3200 only in manual focus.

Yes. I own and use a d3100. The lens fits and works. It is manual focus though.

I don't know if it will work for the d3100 or not. I got mine for a canon, hoping it would work but unfortunately it doesn't.

This lens will auto focus on both the D5100 and the D3100. Look for the AF-S desgination in the description of the lens to determine if it will auto focus.

Same type. Use it on D90 however lent to friend w D3100 before. They work best on manual focus/apature. You can use auto but usual sensor is hair off due to focal change the tubes cause.

It will work but as a manual focus only. The 3100 doesn't have an autofocus motor so it depends on the lens to have one built in. Your autofocus will work with any lens that has "AF-S" or "AF-I" in the descriptor, but this one is just "AF". Otherwise, you will get beautiful photos with it, but you have to manually focus. Also, because of the crop factor of the smaller DX sensor, this lens will become a 35mm lens for zoom purposes. Sadly, the only 24mm prime lens Nikon makes that will autofocus on the D3100 is a pro lens that will cost about four times what the camera did. Don't be afraid of manual focus, it's faster in low light and with a lens this wide, it's very forgiving so you can get sharp shots in a hurry even at f/2.8.
