It will work on the D50 because the motor is on the lens. When a lens has a built in motor, the pin motor in the body defers.
Bodies such as the d40, d40x d60 d5000 d3000 all need lenses that have built in motors to function. Since the D50 has a pin motor, you can use older nikon lenses that use pin motor and save $ such as the 50mm 1.8 for $100.
