AF Nikkor lens will be compatible with the D200 body.

for details of the Focus mode, Exposure mode and metering system, you may wish to refer to the lens compatibility table reproduced from Nikon at the following site :

Annabel,
One of the good things about Nikon cameras is the ability to use lenses from other Nikon cameras including pre-digital cameras. With some older lenses you may loose the ability for AF (Auto Focus) depending on the particular mount but these lenses should focus manually. I am not knowledgeable about the F65 camera and your particular lens and I would suggest that you maybe take the lens with you to a camera store that sells the D200, say Ritz, and they should let you try your lens on their demo model. You may also contact Nikon direct through their support site, http://support.nikontech.com/ and ask then anout this specific lens. Also check out http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/70300g.htm where Ken records his use of a 70-300mm lens - if this is the same as your lens you should have no problem.
