[QUOTE="RocketCowboy, post: 655976, member: 25095"] The FX lens will support all functionality that the lens offers, on your D7200. As mentioned, the biggest issue with the AF-P lens is that VR control is not on the lens body, but set in camera. Since your camera doesn’t understand how to do that, you’re basically stuck with VR on all the time. That may not be an issue, but it also might be if you stay locked down on a tripod with that lens a lot. I here the IQ on the AF-P lens is great. It has the advantage of technology improvements to help out. On the long end though, it’s f/6.3 vs f/5.6. As you also mentioned, it’s a DX only lens, vs the older unit that will still work if you plan to upgrade down the road. I have the FX version and have been happy with it. It can be soft on the long end, but as a travel lens, it works for my needs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
