[QUOTE="Joseph Bautsch, post: 18680, member: 654"] Mark, you will actually get less distortion with a 50mm FX lens. Most lenses have their distortion in the outside edges of the glass. A DX camera will use more of the center of the glass than the outside. It's often called the "sweet spot" of the glass. However I would not think you will have much problem with distortion in any case. The Nikon 50mm prime is one of the sharpest lenses made by Nikon and has little distortion at the edges even on a FX body. [/QUOTE]
