NO!
Some FUJIFILM cameras will accept Nikon-mount lenses.
No. You cannot. This is why it is important when choosing between going with a Nikon or a Canon camera. You are not only choosing between cameras, you’re choosing to go with one system. You must now buy lens for that particular system.
No, they are two different mounts. I hope they gave you a short zoom with the body, though. A new telephoto zoom will cost you some money. Have you got a birthday coming up?
Have fun with your Nikon while you can. Film’s a great medium, and all about anticipation.
No,each manufacturer has a different mount.Nikon has used the exact same for all it’s camera’s since 1959.Canon had to switch from FD lenses on the AE-1program to EF lenses due to the motor coupling for auto focus.Nikon had the same problem in 1983 with it’s F-3 auto focus and had the motor in the lens for a while.Nikon Auto focus lenses can be used on any Nikon,but you have to retract the motor coupling(Manual Focus Only).If both were the same manufactuer it might work,but with fewer features.A specialty camera shop might have adaptor rings,but the optical quality will suffer.Keep a film camera as a back-up in case you lose battery power.A digital needs either rechargables or lithium due to the constant drain.A film camera only needs it for the flash and metering.
No.
