That's a major issue. While all but one DX lens is AF-S (The 10.5mm fisheye 
isn't), the only low-budget lenses that are AF-S are the 18-55's and the 
55-200. Because the lowest-end of the film Nikons have never supported AF-S, 
all the other low-budget lenses are screwdriver AF, even 3rd party lenses.

If you want an AF-S telezoom, your cheapest options after the 55-200 are the 
Sigma 70-200 f2.8 HSM or the Nikon 70-300 VR, neither of which are below 
$600USD and the latter is widely available.
