A: The Nikon AF-S VR Zoom-NIKKOR 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G IF-ED Lens is fully compatible for use with the Nikon D3200 DSLR camera, which would include autofocus capability.

Q: 2. How do you protect the front element of these large telephotos against dust and scratches?

A: There is not any conventional type filter made for these lenses due to their massive size and the cost it would incur. The lenses are super-coated with multiple protective coatings to prevent scratches and dust etc that one would commonly encounter when using this type of lens in the field. Further it is recommended to use the lens' hood for extra protection. Also in the Accessories tab on the link for this lens, we have many options for neoprene hood hats, neoprene lens covers and other protective products designed to protect the lens when used in the field.

Q: 7. Any idea if Nikon will bring out a new 500mm f4 anytime soon? Every time I make a Nikon purchase, in the following weeks Nikon upgrades to another design. Thank You.

A: Unfortunately, we do not have foreknowledge of new Nikon equipment to be released until Nikon releases a press release announcing the camera/lens/accessories they have planned. The best I can state is to simply keep an eye on either the Press Release webpage on Nikon USA's website, a href= http://DPReview.com, target= _blank DPReview.com,/a or our website, as we update our website as soon as we receive information from Nikon on a new item they plan to release.

Q: 8. What does the ED on the lens stand for? the lens i want to replace does not have that on it

A: ED refers to Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass element which minimizes chromatic aberration for superior optical performance.

Q: 9. Compatible with a d70?

A: Yes, the AF-S lenses are compatible with the D70.

Q: 10. Is this suitable for a D200 ?

A: As near as I can tell from this description, yes. Unlike regular AF lenses these lenses have a built-in focus motor and can be used on any camera body whether the body has a focus motor or not. Required for Autofocus operation with the D5300, D5200, D5100, D5000, D3300, D3200, D3100, D3000, D60, D40X, and D40. So the autofocus won't work on a D200.
