Will the lens of an old nikon camera work on one of the new digital cameras?
Lenses for an F801/8008 would all be Ai or AF/AF-D. They would almost certainly NOT be AF-I/AF-S (the F801/8008 can't operate the autofocus motor in AF-I/AF-S lenses). They would mount on any Nikon digital body.
The two gotchas would be:
1. Ai lenses (except for the fairly uncommon Ai-P lenses which are actually AF-D lenses without autofocus) would get no metering on anything except the D1/2/3 or D200/300/700.
2. AF/AF-D lenses would not autofocus on a D40/D40x/D60
Another important thing to note: Except on a D3/D700 all your film lenses will behave like longer lenses on digital bodies, due to the 1.5x crop factor of the smaller sensor.
There will be some limitations depending on which lens you have and which camera you buy. A D40 or D60 will not autofocus with anything other than and AF-S or AF-I. Also some of the lower end DSLRs will not meter with some older lenses. In most all cases however, the lens will still mount and seat properly and aperture down when shooting, the exception being a "Pre-AI" lens.
Yes either with or without an adapter depending on how old they are.
