Photos NOT OK to edit
Hello everyone, I am joining the world of film photography. I currently own a nikon d5200 with the nikkor dx 18-55 and 55-200 lenses. I just bought a nikon FG on ebay body only. I know this uses series e lenses and I will eventually buy the series e 50 mm but for now to start/mess around with will my dx lenses fit or do I need the series e?
 
Your DX lenses should fit but expect vignetting, you need FF lenses to cover the frame adequately.
 
Your lens won't work with the film body because it doesn't have an aperture control. Also it won't fill the entire frame because it is a DX lens. You can use a manual lens or an AF lens that has an aperture ring such as the D lenses. The new G lenses are not backward compatible. They need a DSLR.
