[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 576338, member: 9240"] It's "instacrop". The 36MP's of your D810 become ~16MP's in DX mode. The only advantage is the smaller file sizes in the buffer. I originally opted for the D800 over the D7100 because I anticipated using DX mode a lot for wildlife. I didn't. You get the center 44% of your viewfinder to keep the critter in, which is a lot tougher than it sounds. I found you're better off just shooting full frame and just cropping in post. FYI, I eventually bought a reconditioned D7100 and converted the D800 to IR. [/QUOTE]
