[QUOTE="jwstl, post: 155641, member: 12977"] Some people... Rick M pointed out that the 11-16 is equal to a 16.5-24 and you then posted this question: [I][B][COLOR=#000000]"The Tokina is a [/COLOR]DX[/B][/I][I][B] lens, why wouldn't it be a true 11-16mm on the D5100?"[/B][/I] [COLOR=#000000]You asked the question and I tried to be helpful and explain to you why it's not a "true" 11-16. And that's the crop factor. And there is no such thing as "FX crop factor". Every lens on a DX body-like the 5100-has a crop factor. If you think by buying the 11-16 because it's called a DX and using it on the 5100 you are getting the views of an 11-16 lens you are mistaken. But I feel you don't really understand or care to know the answer to your question so I'll move on.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
