Great. That was my intent. I wish every question had a simple, yes or no answer, but I’m afraid that’s seldom the case...
Again, I didn’t mean to offend by use of the word “silly”. Glad you got the answers you needed. It’s a great camera - enjoy!

Yes/No
As the senior citizen said to the pharmacist, "Depends." : )
Some lenses have focusing motors, and some don't.

What I should have said was “impossible question”.

Okay, smart Alec, “Impossible question to answer without knowing the lens”! LOL
I’m too wordy as it is!

Silly question - you can't get an absolute yes or no without knowing the particular lens.

Note that it's more often yes than no.

Hey "Simon", he said, "Simple" not "Silly".

Your question isn't that simple to answer. Can the D5600 autofocus with all DX lenses? No. However, very likely that it will autofocus with the DX lenses you have.

Without getting into a lot of detail, your lens must have a built-in focusing motor to autofocus on your D5600 camera. Not all DX lenses have that feature.

Just curious. Can you tell me which DX lenses DON'T have the focus motor built in? Am I missing something? TIA

The Nikon Fisheye 10.5mm f/2.8 DX AF is a G lens but has no built in focus motor.
