A:AnswerYes, the AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G will be compatible with the Nikon D3400, D700 and D7000. All three of these cameras are compatible with AF-S, G type lenses. You would have to keep in mind that this is a lens made for Full Frame Cameras, so on the D3400 and D7000, which are Crop Sensor cameras, there will be a 1.5x crop factor with this lens. Meaning the AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G will act as a 75mm lens on the D3400, D7000 and all other crop sensor cameras. Since the D700 is a Full Frame camera, there will be no crop factor and the AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G will be 50mm.
A:AnswerBoth the Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G and the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G are lightweight lenses that provide vividly-sharp videos and images with a bokeh effect. Some differences to note are the minimum aperture and minimum focus distance they each offer. The 35mm f/1.8G lens allows .98 feet for minimum focus distance and the 50mm f/1.8G lens lets you have 1.48 feet. Minimum aperture on the AF-S 35mm is f/22 while the AF-S 50mm minimum aperture is f/16. Either lens would be a great addition to your growing camera bag and help you on your vlogging journey.

A:AnswerAs the D3000 lacks an autofocus motor, it will require lenses that have a built-in focus motor. Nikon denotes these type of lenses with an AF-S, for Nikon's Silent Wave Focus Motor. The 50mm f/1.8G lens is an AF-S type lens with a built-in focus motor. It will be compatible, with autofocus, with your D3000.
A:AnswerYes... will work fine, providing 75mm equivalent field of view on your camera, in that it is a "crop" (DX format) camera. That's a near ideal range for portraits, as is the f1.8 aperture. To go a bit wider and to get to the true 50mm view on your D40, pick up a 35mm f1.8 Nikon lens also. Inexpensive at $200, and nice image quality.
A:AnswerYes but, only with an adapter. Nikon has released a generation 2 version of the adapture assuring that autofocus works appropriately with it. Priced around $249 at best buy.
