D40 lenses on a D80I have an opportunity to purchase a "slightly" used D80 for $500. However, that is the body only. I have a D40 with the 18-55 kit lens. Will that work on the D80? Do they both require AF-S lenses?

It will definitely work on the D80. The D80 has the screw drive focus thingy that the D40 does not, so can use AF as well as AF-S lenses without issue.

I alsao got this response back from Nikon technical Supoport this morning...
Thank you for Contacting Nikon Technical Support. Yes any lens that will work on the D40 will work on your D80. With the D40 just ensure you are using AF-S lenses if you wish them to have auto focus. Hope this helps.

I will do that, once I have checked out the D80 and am confident that all is well with it.
