Nikon D60 compatible lenses

One of the most controversial aspects of the D60/D40X/D40 is the lack of an in-body motor and the effect this has on the availability (or lack of it) of lenses that will autofocus on these bodies. In reality a great many of the lenses that most entry-level DSLR purchasers go on to buy (if any) are now available with built-in motors to ensure compatibility with the baby Nikons. This list below includes several lenses that have only recently been made available with built-in focus motors, some of which are not clearly differentiated from their no-motor predecessors. As a result, this list should be seen as a guide to the range of lenses available, not definitive evidence that a lens will be compatible.
