[QUOTE="gqtuazon, post: 139071, member: 6573"] [b]Re: DX lens on FX[/b] So, lets say we are using a Nikon 35mm f1.8G DX with this Kenko 1.5x TC, mount it on a FX camera, you get an equivalent 52.5mm FOV which is the purpose of the TC. The Kenko that you suggested will not register the correct aperture adjustment with the Kenko TC using a DX lens unlike when you use a Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 VR and the newer Kenko 1.4x TC, it will display the correct aperture of f4 instead of f2.8. Using other lenses with the Kenko will still work regardless whether you use it with a full frame or DX camera. If you are expecting to get a full frame experience by using a DX lens plus a TC, then I am interested in learning on how you can achieve that. I will be surprise on how you can make a D800 produce 36mp file using a DX lens plus TC if that is what you are expecting. But again, your post lacks the details and the overall objective. It would have been more appropriate if you asked: What will happen if you use a discontinued Kenko 1.5x TC with a DX lens and mount it on a FX camera? [/QUOTE]
