Yeah, and it's a nice lens on the digital bodies! I just got one last summer for a good price but haven't really put it through its paces yet.

It will work great; but it won't autofocus or set exposure. Fortunately it's rather easy to still take good pictures; green button does the exposure, and your eyes/hands do the focusing.

And don't forget Catch-in-Focus, a great little feature.

Whoops! I did forget that. I've only had mixed results so I'd stopped using it.
