Is this lens a DX or FX?

D-Type design provides precise distance information for flash and ambient light exposure process

Its a DX I bought one last year works great but you need a camera that has its own AF motor I have a D70s and the autofocus works great. But it doesn't work on my D5100

D7100 has a DX sensor which will multiply this FX lens by factor of 1.5.Cameras such as the D610, D810, etc. have a FX sensor.

I use this lens on my D700 FX. The lens is not designed for an FX but the photos are beautiful. You should do just fine because the lens was made for a DX camera. It is an extremely tack sharp lens and the range is perfect for landscapes and wide angle shots.

Yes, see www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/.../dx-vs-fx-its-not-debate-its-choice.

DX describes the crop that most digital SLRs have because their sensor is smaller than a piece of 35mm film. It is roughly 1.6x smaller. "Effective focal length" describes this difference for any particular lens focal length. FX is used to describe a digital SLR camera that has a sensor roughly the same size as a 35mm piece of film. DX and SX are also used to describe lenses, because some only make a circle of light large enough to cover a DX camera's small sensor. This makes the lenses lighter, cheaper, and has no disadvantage with a DX camera, but they don't cover a FX sensor.

I bought the Nikon-FX version for non-AI lenses, works fine on X-Pro1. Since the sensor is not FF I don't see why you should have any problem with DX lenses - just tested a Tamron 28-75DX, not problem. This model is for lenses that have an adjustable aperture ring. Later Nikkors do not so that is the crucial issue depending on what lenses you have.

Hi, No, this lens only works on DX Nikon , for FX you will have to buy full frame lens.

the dx unless you plan on moving up to a full frame camera in the future. if you're not going to go full frame don't waste the $ on the fx lens. I have both these lenses, the dx I got first when I first started out, then recently the fx when I got a full frame camera. I've used the fx version on my d7000 (dx body) and honestly I see no real difference between the dx and fx lens on a dx body. even after pixel peeping quite a bit I was really at a loss as to which one was better, they both looked really good.

Look into the metabones speed poster for Nikon mount instead. An FX lens is for full frame so there is a crop factor. The metabones coverts your lens to FX and also increases you F stop by one.

No, this is equivalent of DX only. On Sigma "DG" is equivalent to Nikon's "FX" (full frame), and "DC" is equivalent to Nikon's "DX" (crop frame).

A DX lens will work with a DX (cropped sensor) or FX (full frame/35mm size sensor) camera. The downsize of a DX lens is that is not wide enough to utilize the full resolution of a FX sensor, which is why you want this expensive-ass camera in the first place. I was lucky enough to have old NIKKOR film lenses lying around, which happen to work with the d610 auto-focus.

It is a FX lens, that is full format. I do not see why it would not be compatible with a DX body like the D7000. Nikon USA site says, answering a similar question about the D200 and The D300, that Yes this lens is compatible with these 2 cameras.

DX lenses are designed for non-full frame DSLR cameras. They basically have a smaller window that is the same size as the sensor. On a DX camera you can use either DX or FX (full frame) lenses however it isn't a great idea to use a DX lens on an FX camera (or a film camera).Here is a better explanation http://www.nikonusa.com/Learn-And-Explore/Nikon-Camera-Technology/g588ouey/1/The-DX-and-FX-Formats.html and here is a list of DX cameras http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikon_DX_format.

This lens is considered a DX lens specifically made for Nikon's DX cameras. The D610 is a full frame (FX) camera. You can use this lens but you won't be using the full sensor size. While this lens is excellent, I'd recommend one that is an FX compatible lens.

My experience putting this lens on a DX (D90) camera was disappointing. The focal length is drastically changed to more like 105-300. Marrying this with a DX is like putting a race motor in a station wagon. It ends up working, but for the investment, there isn't the payoff you would expect. This lens really belongs on an FX sensor camera. Realizing this, I went and upgraded my body to the D750 and I have been happy ever since.

This lens is a DX format lens and it will only work on DX format cameras and it will only auto-focus if that camera has a focus drive motor. The D70 does NOT have a drive motor. The available 16mm is made for the FX format cameras, those are digital cameras that are the size of 35mm film cameras. It can also be used on a DX, but there will be a focal length 1.5 multiplier added, so it would act like a 24mm and will have a dramatically narrowed field of view at 107 degrees.

Yes. but you'll get a DX crop. Since I don't know which FX body, I can't say what you're pixel count would be (D800 , I think it goes to 15.4mp, D600, I think the DX crop is a bit over 10mp). Hope this helps and best of luck. Oh, Sigma does make a couple of 24-70mm lens (one with a ring motor, one without) for FX bodies, so you might look in that direction as well. Cheers.
