What lenses are compatible with Nikon D5100?
I understand that all Nikkor lenses post 1960 will actually fit the body, and DX lenses will work the best, but specifically I would like a little help deciding between these two seemingly identical lenses for my camera.
AF NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8D
AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G
Which one of these lenses would work the best for my D5100?
The AF version will not autofocus with your D5100. Get the AF-S model
ANY Nikkor AF-S lenses can be used on your D5100
Here is a list of all the lenses available
The second lens you listed, the AF-S Nikon 50mm f/1.8G will autofocus. For future reference, you can look here for fully compatible lenses
