will this lens work on a Nikon D3400 null

The Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR lens, as well as other E-type lenses, is completely compatible with the Nikon D3400 DSLR camera. To learn more about compatibility please contact Nikon Support.

Not sure. Lens employs a electromagnetic shutter which is compatible with only certain cameras. It works great with my D610 and older D300. I didn't see the D3400 on the list of compatible camera bodies on the Nikon Website. There is a good chance that it is but I would call Nikon at their toll-free number (1-800-645-6687) before purchasing. If you do get it be aware that the lens is on the heavy side and although you can get great results hand holding it a monopod is recommended.

It is an AF-S lense so you should have no problem putting this on the D3400. The D3400 does not have a built in auto focus motor so you'll be best served buying to AF-S lenses (which have the motor) otherwise you will have to manually focus. So far it has been a great lens and a real bargain- but very heavy to hand hold for very long periods of time.

I think it will but if you go on the nikon website it will answer your question.

sorry to say that no, this lens is not compatible with any of the 3300 series. I thought perhaps it was just auto focus but with a bit of a search its more than that, the E mechanism, the electromagnetic diaphragm will not work so the lens will not function properly.

Yes, it will work on the D3400. But since the D3400 is a DX (crop) sensor camera body, and the 200-500mm is a standard full frame lens there will be approximately a 1.5x additional crop/magnification factor. This means that images through this lens on a D3400 will be magnified the way a 300-750mm lens would appear on a full frame camera body.

I don't know but Nikon has a page in their website that will tell you if it's compatible

Yes, it will work on the Nikon D3400
