Is this a full frame or crop lens? also, will it work on a nikon d5100 camera or better?

yes it will work on a crop frame camera but will lack the power to focus because your camera must have a built-in af motor

Full frame lenses work fine on APS cameras - but not the other way around. On APS-C the lens will have 1.5 crop compared to the field of view you have with fullframe. The good news is that you'll future-proofed should you go to full frame in the future AND it's an awesome lens!

NO!! This is for APS-C cropped sensor Canon cameras ONLY. Canon is not like the Nikon which can use this lens on a full frame camera. Canon cannot! It will damage your camera body, so don't do it!!

Yes, it is meant for full frame. Works great on my D800, and should work equally well on D600 and D610.

I have the D7000. I find that the lens works very well but you do have the "crop" situation since it's not a DX specific lens. I guess it gives you an effective focal length of about 85mm. It is a very good lens. I used it for general photography at a party recently on my D750. Got some great pictures.

This is a full frame lens so yes. But as lens go, this one is not the best, by far. I picked up a used one, and I thank the stars that I got it for cheap. I don't like it.

This is a full frame lens... Just make sure you buy the right version, the one that fits your camera mount.

I have this lens and while it works on the D5100, it does NOT have an autofocus motor in the lens and the auto-focus feature WILL NOT work with the D5100. In every other way (manual focus) the lens works perfectly.

This is a full frame (FX) lens. Of course it can also be used on DX if you like, where the crop factor makes it equivalent to 120-600mm.

This lens is made for a full frame (FX) camera, the Nikon D300 is not a full frame (DX) camera, however you can still use it, but keep in mind the crop factor, the lens will become approximately a 30mm lens. Also, it might focus manually only.

I agree with Aaron on the Nikkor 35mm f/1.8 lens. Beautiful results at the cheapest cost you could possibly ask for. I have the D5100 body as well, and after I got the 35mm lens, it didn't leave my camera for months!

When a Nikon lens has a DX designation, that means it's their smaller digital format. There will be a crop factor if you use this lens on a full frame body.

Yes but it will be cropped. This lens is specifically designed for smaller sensors. Full frame lenses work with smaller sensors much better that this one will work for a full frame sensor.

I use it on my Nikon D5200, which is not a full frame. I love the lens. I'm not sure about the full frame lens. Other answers claim it can. interesting to find out, considering upgrading to full frame if I can interchange lenses

DC, are you referring to the Micro Nikkor 85mm f3.5G DX? If so this would be a very good addition to your kit. Although not the fastest lens in the world it is very versatile for either mid range focal length for portrait or macro work. The lens is sharp with good contrast and color rendition. AF is fast on my D7100 and should work well on the D5100 as well.

Hi, since I use a D90 i'm no sure how it woks with a full frame camera. It works great with my D90, it is the best walk around lens I own for my camera. Sorry but I can't speak for a full frame camera.
