Q: 1. Will this lens work on a D5000

A: It should but I believe it not be an actual 24mm. in Reality, it will be 24mm X 1.5= 36mm. Nikon has some great Dx Lens for your camera that are sharp too.I would suggest AF-S DX NIKKOR35mm f/1.8G it will do the same thing as the 24 1.8 and you will save a lot of money.

Q: 9. Will this lens work on a D3300?

A: Yes. The D3300 requires a lens with its own focusing motor. All Nikon AF-S lenses have a focusing motor.

Q: 10. The specs for the Nikon 24 mm f/1.8G lens say the filter thread is 72 mm x 0.75 mm pitch. Most filter designations don't add a pitch. What does this mean? Will it take a normal 72 mm filter/step-up ring/step-down ring or is something additional required?

A: As far as I know, the filter is standard and have had no problems with any off the shelf filters. I also use the hood, with the filter, that came with the lens. I find the lens to be very sharp. It is slightly heavy but that is to be expected.As expected, I keep a UV filter on at all times, usually made by Hoya. I display my photos on a Sony 65 Inch Ultra High 4K TV screen. I use the 24mm Nikkor on the Nikon 5500 so it acts as if it were a 36mm on a full frame. Hope this helps.
