"I can use a Nikkor lens with a built-in focus motor in the Nikon cameras that do not require?

You mean new Nikon bodies, which also has a drive screw, or larger bodies, which came before the lens -? In the former case at all. All cameras that have transmission screw (which is every body Nikon D40, but, D40x and D60) – working. It will continue to use the internal engine, drive screw is their way of being consistent with objectives former, not the engine. If you talk about the older cameras – still usable but may have to focus manually. AF-S does not have unity screw, so that the only way of focusing attention on the internal motor. Older bodies do not know how to check that the engine will not autofocus with these lenses … There is just one more thing on the body of the film – if the target has also DX on their behalf, will not cover the entire frame, leaving dark corners, because DX lenses are made for small DSLR sensors (which will not completely cover the sensor of the D3 of current Nikon cameras.) The last – Both larger bodies, they do not know how to set the lens aperture will not work or will only work wide open. No release lever of these lenses, so the camera has to do so. I also believe that there was some minor modification assembly time ago, but not recently, so it should be fine with bodies made in the last assembly 20-30 years. Hope this helps, LEM.
