I'm getting a 17-55mm AF-S DX Nikkor for?
use with my Nikon D5000 and I wonder if AF works with this Thanks. for friend response. I am putting this in response to low light and natural … I mainly do weddings. I need reliable solid body of a career goal. Thanks again.
Yes, being an AF-S, self-focus with the camera without auto focus motor. However, I would advise you not to buy the lens. It is not very different in the optical quality of 18-55. Not because it's bad, but because the 18-55 is an excellent target. I would recommend for you to invest in a target different. I would recommend specific objectives, but do not know what type of photography you do.
