... Pre-AI lenses cannot be mounted on most modern AI only bodies. These include, FM2, FE2, FG, EM, FA, F5, F100 and every N-series camera including the N90s. If you try to mount an non-AI lens on these bodies, you may damage the AI lever. Some AI cameras, like the FM, FE, F2A, F2AS, F3, FT3, EL2 and F4 can move their AI lever out of the way and can use pre-AI lenses; however with most of these, stop-down metering is required since most don't meter couple with the old lenses. Finally, pre-AI bodies must use stop-down metering with AI and later lenses that don't have the IC prong which includes all AF lenses and I think all E series lenses.

gary,
i'm curious as to what issues you've had with AF lenses. thanks
cheers all,
