After several years of participating in the Digital Photography Review (DPR) forums on Nikkor Non-Ai use on Nikon DSLR bodies, I gave up. I contacted NikonUSA several time and not one Tech Support Rep seem to know what they are talking about. Keeps on referring me to their Nikon Lens / Nikon DSLR compatibility chart.
I have been using ALL my Nikkor non-Ai lenses, with no modification, on every Nikon DSLR I used to and currently own (D90, D200, D5100, D600, D5300, and D800). Naturally, limited to Manual Exposure and manual focus only. My only Ai lens is the Nikkor NOCT 58mm f/1.2 lens. Work on all exposure mode but only on manual focus.
The only Nikkor non-Ai lens that cannot even be mounted is the H type. I do not own one but I tried a used one at a local camera store.
