The camera loses its weatherproof capability if the battery compartment cover, connector cover or DC-IN jack cover is open. Make sure that all the covers are closed before using the camera. •Wipe any water off the camera before changing the battery or card. •If the camera gets splashed, wipe the water off as soon as possible with a dry cloth. Salt water spray or droplets can cause damage to the camera if the camera is not wiped dry as soon as possible. •Do not apply excessive force to or attempt to peel off the rubber packing of the battery compartment cover, connector cover or DC-IN jack cover. •If the rubber packing becomes worn or damaged, contact your nearest Olympus service center. (A charge is made for replacement of parts.) •If the rubber packing of the battery compartment cover, connector cover or DC-IN jack cover contains dirt or sand, wipe it off before closing the cover, otherwise water may get inside the camera. •The rechargeable battery and other camera accessories are not weatherproof. Care should be taken when using the accessories.

Which Nikon S.L.R. cameras can I use my 70/300mm AF-S Nikor and still maintain auto focus, it is currently on a D40x

Every one (assuming the camera supports autofocus in the first place, of course--old film Nikons didn't). The lens has an autofocus motor, so the camera doesn't need one.

Film Nikons supported autofocus starting with the N2000. (Actually, the F3 also had autofocus capabilities, but used a different system). All the digitals support autofocus.

What is used to maintain weather stripping and door hinges

for weather stripping on your vehicle, if it is being stored use baby powder and work it in. If its being used regulary there are some great products out there 303, Vinylex, 3M Rubber Dressing, Wurths, etc.
As for the door hinges. A white lithium grease should work great.
Thank you,
