I do feel sorry for you in that you refuse to actually READ anything. AF D lenses and AF-S D lenses both exist yet you choose to believe otherwise. Very sad. But PLEASE stop disseminating your false information to others as it is totally counterproductive and rude. I believe Nikon knows a LOT more about their lenses that YOU ever will simply because you apparently have no first hand knowledge of the issue and refuse to research it.
Since you are a KR pundit and follower just search his own site for any of the lenses I have listed. Read about them and educate yourself before starting arguments you cannot win!

I know they both exist, but they are different lenses. That was my point.
You are an idiot. I'm not a KR pundit, but sometimes even his simplistic site provides good information. If you don't like his site, try:

"E: Electronic Diaphragm
The new electronic diaphragm "E" lenses only work on Nikons introduced since about 2007. They work perfectly on all FX cameras.
YES: As of January 2018, electronic diaphragm "E" lenses work only on the D5, D4, D4s, D3, D3s, D3P, D3x, Df, D850, D810, D800/e, D750, D700, D610, D600, D500, D300, D300s, D7000, D7100, D7200, D7500, D5600, D5500, D5300, D5200, D5100, D5000, D3400, D3300, D3200, D3100, Nikon 1 J1, J2, J3, J4 with FT-1, Nikon 1 V1, V2, V3 with FT-1, and Nikon 1 S1, S2 with FT-1.
NO: These new "E" diaphragm lenses will not work on the D1 or D2 series, D100, D200, D90, D80, D70 series, D60, D50, D40 series, or the D3000, and will not work on any 35mm camera. The diaphragm will stay wide-open, which may or may not be a problem for you. In the case of tele lenses like the 200-500mm f/5.6E, this isn't much of a problem because we usually shoot long lenses wide-open, in which case the E lenses are compatible with everything. If you don't mind shooting wide-open; even on a 1959 Nikon F you can focus manually and shoot wide open except if it's an AF-P lens."
or of course you can check:
https://www.nikonusa.com/en/index.pageMoreover, I have not only researched this, I actually OWN the two Nikkor lenses I've described, along with more than a dozen more, and have owned and used other lenses -- including D-series lenses -- in the past. I have also owned the Nikon D40x camera (and a D70, D80, D2H, D2Hs, D300, D3, D3s, D700, D4, D4s, D5 and D850 -- and I still have the last five cameras) and know these two lenses wouldn't work with the D40 from first hand experience. I've been a professional photographer for more than 15 years, not just a fan boy whose mouth exceeds his knowledge. Most people come here looking for information, but you just want to have an argument. Hopefully others will be able to pick up good information from the resources I've listed, and ignore an abusive troll like you. As far as this topic is concerned, I'm done.
