Most lenses are identified by their zoom range and aperture. A Nikon Nikkor 70-200mm VR II f/2.8 is a lens with a 70-200mm zoom range, Vibration Reduction II, and a maximum fixed aperture of 2.8 - in other words, a very expensive fast pro lens. A Nikon Nikkor 70-200mm VR f/4-5.6 offers the same optical range, but nowhere near the optical quality in low light situations because of its variable aperture and consumer grade quality.

What is a camera body?

In a camera with a removable lens system, the camera body is all of the camera except the lens mechanism. Many more-sophisticated cameras employ a system of removable/ exchangeable lenses. The "camera body" and the "lens" are often sold separately. What is called simply the "lens," though, is really a lens tube with multiple lenses and multiple adjustment mechanisms. It will have a standard connection point that mates to the lens mount on the camera body.

Will lens from N4004 fit D70 camera?

Yes. Nikon cameras have the distinct advantage over other cameras because they are backwards compatible with any Nikon lens. In short, any Nikon camera can mount any Nikon lens. The problem is how much of the lens capabilities are retained when used on a different camera. Depending on the lens' mounting system and the Nikon camera, the lens may or may not be able to autofocus or meter. Also, if you use an FX lens (from a film or D3/D700 camera) on a DX (digital DSLR) camera, the focal lengths will be different than on the film camera. More specifically, it will be 1.5 times the focal length of the film camera. (more zoomed in)
