Like Nikon's other consumer level DSLRs, the D5300 has no in-body auto focus motor, and fully automatic auto focus requires one of the currently 166 lenses with an integrated auto focus motor. With any other lenses the camera's electronic rangefinder (which indicates if the subject inside the selected focus point is in focus or not) can be used to manually adjust focus.{{cite web| url=http://imaging.nikon.com/lineup/dslr/d5200/compatibility02.htm| title=Lens Compatibility – Nikon D5200| publisher=Nikon Corporation| access-date=2012-11-27| archive-date=2012-11-10| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121110213725/http://imaging.nikon.com/lineup/dslr/d5200/compatibility02.htm| url-status=dead}}[http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/nikonD60/4 Nikon D60 electronic rangefinder].
