[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 119317, member: 9240"] The thing is, the 1.5 crop on the D600 yields an image with the same crop factor as a DX camera with no crop at all. The main difference is that the D600's resolution at 1.5 crop is lower than the D90, D300 and D7000 (about 10MP's). The D800 cropped at 1.5 will give you an image equivalent to the D7000. So, unless your subject is close enough that it would more than fill the viewfinder in the DX camera you're not going to be cropping out anything you'd get with the DX. Look at this image... [IMG]http://digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/full-frame-crop-factor.jpg[/IMG] Assume the full image represents the what you see in the D600 view finder. Take the exact same lens and put it on a DX camera an the yellow box represents what you will see in the viewfinder - assuming you have not moved. It's also what you'd get if you set the FX camera to 1.5 crop DX mode. So, a 150-500mm lens acts like a 225-750mm on a DX camera, which is what makes it so great for wildlife. What made the D7100 so attractive is that if the full frame above represented what you saw in the viewfinder, the red box is what you'd get in 1.3x crop mode, turning the 150-500mm into not a 225-750mm at 24MPs, but something more akin to a 293-975mm lens at 16MP's.
