Smart phones are killing camera sales
#27
Quote:Nikon is absolutely horrible. Screw driven lenses can't have AF on lower end bodies, most AI lenses won't meter properly on even some higher models like D90, E series lenses won't work on anything older than 2007 etc. Yes everything fits physically but you can get a cheap adapter and then all of them fit on a Canon too Tongue

The best part is the AF-P lenses, which don't work on something as recent as D4, D800, D7200 and D610. Apparently those are too old. Yes the only AF-P lens is a 18-55 right now but they will probably release more of them in near future. Also, a lot of Nikon DX cameras also go into the list of the things that won't work with those lenses. Basically anything but a D3300, D5, D500 and D810.
 

The AF-P lenses which is exactly one model, being a super rare 18-55 kitshit, oh yes, all the owners of the non-fitting cameras will weep themselves into sleep each night. If they ever realize how unfair Nikon treats them with AF-P lenses, that is.

 

And screw driven lenses on low end bodies? Why? Why on earth should they take care for bodies which hardly anytime see something else in their mount than the kit lense they were assembled with? Some decisions might be strange but this one I can understand.
