[QUOTE="J-see, post: 388334, member: 31330"] That's not always true. Yes this is an FX lens but if for birding and macro DX would be better (sensor), it should show here. The popular idea is also that a good lens would perform better on a DX because it uses the better part of the lens. Not always it seems. I did the test a third time, better safe than sorry. [ATTACH=CONFIG]127790._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]127791._xfImport[/ATTACH] 100% [ATTACH=CONFIG]127792._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]127793._xfImport[/ATTACH] FX scaled to identical size: [ATTACH=CONFIG]127794._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]127795._xfImport[/ATTACH] The DX crop mode, even with its Mpix advantage is no competition for the FX even when cropped down in post. At least the D3300 vs D750. I'm not saying it is a phenomenal difference in the quality of the shot but when considering purely the quality/pixel, it is quite a lot. I assumed it to be different until I compared pixel loss on paper and then shot these. I just checked the optical sharpness for the D7100 with this lens and that is around 11 P-Mpix. The result should be fairly identical to this difference. Anyone with a DX and FX is free to test this themselves. Maybe for them it is different. [/QUOTE]
