    Auto Focus on Non-Nikkor Lens

    Hihi, I've got a noob question. Understand that there are Nikkor Lens (Non-S versions) that don't Autofocus on certain models of cameras like D40 - D60, but can AF on D70 and above. What about 3rd party lens like Tokina or Tammy? Is there a way to tell which ones can Autofocus on what...
