I already have 3 lens which are for FM3A. All of them are AIS Manual focus lens. can I use them on Nikon D70 and Nikon D100? I am thinking to buy either D70 or D100 but I am not clear if I can use these 3 lens on it. I don't mind if I have to put D70 and D100 on manual mode to adjust the exposure and shutter speed by myself. I just want to use them on Digital one so I don't have to develop the film. I read the review, and I feel it is possible. Does anyone try this before?

Thanks.

Yes, AIS lenses mount perfectly. Use manual mode, guess your exposure, and then correct if necessary after viewing the historgram. If you make it a habit of bracketing exposures when using your FM3A, then dialing your exposures into the D70 using the histogram really doesn't take much more time, if any. And you will know whether your exposure is where you want it to be.
