[QUOTE="J-see, post: 388085, member: 31330"] I agree the DX has advantages detail wise and I assumed it would be better for any sort of shot I end up cropping. Like birding or macro. The reality is that even while my D3300 has more pixels/area, I ended up using the D750 all the time. My better lenses perform better on it and I can take plenty a shot that is difficult to impossible with the DX. At least when desiring the same quality. The sharpness in P-Mpix of my 200mm macro on the D3300 is 10/24 which is quite some loss. I don't have numbers for the D750 but on the D610 it is 19/24. So even while my D3300 has the 1.5x advantage, my D750 grabs almost double the detail when using the same lens. So even in DX mode, it doesn't do much worse. I guess here too 1.5x is partly the reason since that counts also for any imperfection. The DX wide I used on the D750 sadly didn't work too well. Longer than 15mm it did take full shots in FX mode but when I checked the corners of the shot, I noticed it stretched the shot quite a bit. For some shots that doesn't matter much but for others it simply doesn't work. When shooting in both crop modes it solves most of those problems but quality wise it can't compete with the FX wide I'm using now. But the DX was never intended to be used on FX and perform as well.
