Hi all,
Wondered if someone could help this amateur here ? I currently own a Nikon D7000. My lenses are as follows
Nikon 18-55 f 3.5 5.6
Nikon Afs Dx 55-300 f 4.5 5.6
Nikon 70-200 f 2.8 G 11
Nikon Af Nikor 50mm Prime Focus f 1.8 D
Kenko Teleconverter Pro 300DGX

My question is this................ If i upgrade to a D610 which i know is a full frame camera. Which lenses will fit and work on it ? If there is any more info you need pls ask me. I may not of put all info in post.:numbness:

Im sure a couple will have to be sold.

Regards

Stephen

Any DX lens is made specifically for the Crop Sensor camera you own. The kicker is a DX lens will work with an FX camera (D610) but in DX crop mode. On the D610 in DX mode it's like 10MP.

The 18-55 and 55-300 are DX glass. So will not cover the entire FX sensor. The other 2 lenses are FX lenses. And I don't know about the teleconverter. But compare it to the DX lenses you own. If it's the same size as the DX rear element that will give you the answer.

Hi Doug and thx. So i can keep my 70-200 and my 50mm prime ? They will work fully as they should ? 18-55 and 55-300 can be sold. Ill check out the teleconverter. Have i understood you correctly ?

Thank you but as I understand it I will only get 10 mp out of two of them. Is that right ? Pls forgive my ignorance as I'm still learning.
Thx

That is correct because you're using a smaller part of the sensor would be better to upgrade those lenses to full frame sometime but at least they are useful to begin with

10MP is still nothing to sneeze at. Its still only 2MP behind the much loved D90/D700
