I will soon upgrade to FX Nikon body. Will this lens function in the 17-70 range on those cameras?
1566270
No.. It will not give its full function as the fpoint will not change. An FX lens of this range would be recommended for this purpose.
1566271
It will work, but because it is designed for DX sensors, you FX sensor will only operate in crop mode. The focal length of the lens will not change. I would recommend a lens designed for an FX sensor to get full use out of your new camera body.

The Sigma 17-70 OS lens is designed to be used on DX format cameras. It will only function on FX format when that camera is in DX crop mode. As an owner of both the D7000 and D700, I can say that this lens vignettes very badly on FX. The Tokina 11-16 f2.8 lens, on the other hand, will work on the D700 at 15-16mm with little or no vignetting, and it's sharp as a tack. There are a few others that work this way - I believe the 12-24 f4 Tokina and a couple of Nikon wide angle DX lenses will also do this.

No...this lens is terrific with DX cameras like my D7000...but since this is a DX lens could work in a FX body, but you would waste your money with this lens using in a FX body...I would recommend use an FX lens an a Dx body rather than a Dx lens in a FX body,,,in that case, you should look for a sigma DG lens that are for FX bodies or look for an FX lens from Nikon....however, the tag price for those lens will be double or triple compared with Dx counterpart....my advice...get an DG or FX lens...i keep my 17-70mm for my d7000, but in my D600 I use 50mm 1.8g, the 70-300mm Vr, the 24-85VR and the 85mm 1.8 G....FX lens in FX bodies....hpe that helps..

NO> Sigma DC lenses are made for Camera's with the smaller APS-C sensor. They are not made for FX sensor cameras. If the camera you buy allows you to put the camera in DX mode you can use the lens... but major cost in MP count. SO really NO.
1566275
This lens is not designed for an FX bodied camera. While it should function with the FX camera, the camera will likely adjust to DX mode (cropping the image like a DX camera does), or if it doesn't do that you will likely get vignetting at the wider settings.
1566276
for an FX or film camera the Sigma 28-105 f/2.8-4 lens will provide an equivalent range and it's a great lens and built tough. the first set of photos in this photo stream are taken with the 28-105 on a D70 just to prove that it's possible to get the shots I wanted on so called obsolete gear and if you page forward the set of Noche en Blanco photos are taken with the 17-70mm lens.https://www.flickr.com/photos/73423234@N00/

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.

Hi, No, this lens only works on DX Nikon , for FX you will have to buy full frame lens.
1566279
The 17-70 is a dx lens and will vignette on a full frame camera in fx mode. If your camera has a dx mode, you can use the lens but then the range will operate as it would on any crop sensor camera (a full frame equivalent of 26-105). So, since it is a dx lens, the short answer is no. You should think about the Nikon 24-120 f 4 if you like the range of the Sigma. 17 in fx terms is a wide angle so you will need a 14-24 or a 17-35 type lens to get the really wide angle of view.

It depends upon the lens (if it's a prime), and/or the focal length (if it's a zoom). I frequently use the excellent 35mm f/1.8 DX lens in FX mode on my D700. There is certainly some fall off at the corners, but it works well for my uses (location portraits, and indoor people events).

Yes it's a prime lens and if you use it on a dx camera you'll have to back up a bit not so much on fx cameras of course out doors ,distance would be less of a issue. Unless you need 1.4 there are better choices out there like a 14-24 or 16-35.

Not unusual that a this type of thing is in error, happens rather frequently on Amazon and other sites. I don't use Nikon, I use a Pentax K-5 IIs so I'm not that familiar with Nikon. I did check the Tamron site and there is a mount for Nikon so this will fit your camera. Even if you use the FX version of this lens it will still work. I remember reading somewhere that a DX lens can be used on a FX body and the sensor can be cropped for it, kind of neat. Anyway, if you choose to buy this lens, I have no doubt you will love it because it's a highly rated lens for Pentax and many others. I have one and it's unbelievably sharp with excellent contrast ( at least on my camera with my user settings), a limiter and, I think, a very good manual focus ring that has excellent resistance, a clutch would be better, but as is it's very good. Makes an excellent short telephoto at a 1.5 crop. Anyway, I hope this helps and if you choose to buy it you will not be disappointed.

Before answering, I tried the lens on a D70s. The lens works perfectly. I would, however, bring to your attention that this is an FX lens and the D70 has a DX crop sensor. As a result, this lens has will be closer to a 35mm field of view on a DX camera. The description indicates 84 degrees FX but about 60 degrees DX. If you do not need the features of this lens (aperture ring, etc.) and are simply seeking a 35mm lens, consider the 35mm 1.8 DX for about 60% of the price. Otherwise, I use this lens a great deal and my only real frustration is its tendency to ghost. It ranges from F/2.8-f/22, is metal and is small enough to drop into your pocket.

I used it on D600 and d7100.. As long as body has built in motor should be fine. Note, you need a hood for outdoor use, can flare in bright light situation like back lit subject.. Very very sharp and excellent on both fx or dx. I like the macro function as well. Excellent build.. Push/pull zoom is easy enough to get used to..

yes!! this lens is acualley a FX for mat lens and will work in DX mode {fx cameras d800 etc.} i have this lens on my D3200 and use it on my D800!! .. go to www.nikonusa.com, and you can read ALL the specs on the lens!

yes this lens will work on a d700 and a d300s both those cameras have a motor that will work the AF system. It will not work properly on the lesser models like d5100 or d3200. Just remember there is cropping with those two camera for any lens you use so the effective range is 42-105 2.8. I bought this lens a few month ago and it is way awesome and better in my opinion than the 24-70 2.8

I have used these tubes with my Nikkor FX lenses (24-120 and 70-300) on my D700 and have had no issue. The zooming action of your lens serves as the method for focusing (I found this out using a bellows and a zoom lens many years ago), so if you are looking for autofocusing to work, you may be disappointed.

This is one of the best lenses I have ever owned. I am not sure about the 35-70 2.8 version because there is no macro application on the 24-70. I use this lens for both fx and dx cameras how ever I would assume that it is a little sharper than the 35-70 due to the fact that it is newer technology. I can't find any current reviews for your lens. I agree with Marty in LA, buy the Nikon 105mm or 200mm if you want macro and if you need a versatile wide angle buy the 24-70 2.8 and the 70-200 in either F2.8 or F4...

I think the previous responders are correct it is compatible with your D7000. I use it with a D 800 at 28-300mm. If you eventually upgrade to an FX sensor camera like the D600 or D800 it will also be compatible at 28 t0 300 at full frame. These camera allow you to use either FX or DX lenses. These cameras automatically crop to the DX sensor area when they sense a Dx lens. You can also select the area size even with the FX lens so that it sees a DX crop area which will effectively get you at Zoom range 28mm FX mode to 450mm DX mode. It works great and I find mine to be quite sharp.
100083
It will work but since it is an FX lens your new focal length will be 120mm - 600mm
2077807
This lens is great on the D7100 with an equvalent focal length range of 36-180mm. You get the benefit that vignetting will not be an issue and you're only using the center of the image circle so it will be sharper across the frame on the DX camera and if you have or will have FX bodies in the future, it cover both. However, if you only plan to use DX cameras, the 18-200mm VRII is the better lens to go for and much less expensive.

Yes, this lens will work fine with any Nikon DX body. I have been using the 18-70 ED IF on several Nikons with consistently superb results.

Yes the 17-35 f/2.8 is a lens for a FX camera (full frame) the D700 is a FX Camera.
