[QUOTE="skene, post: 129571, member: 13155"] I may be wrong about this... but you have to figure that DX lenses are made to work with APS-C sensors. These are cropped sensors which are not sized up in 35mm. Now using a lens made for an FX/Full Frame body will not end up being cropped but will be increased by 1.5x. This means that being used on an APS-C sensor the lens will be viewed as a 75mm (1.5x 50mm) lens, whereas the 35mm DX will stay as described since it is optimized for an APS-C sized sensor. [/QUOTE]
