[QUOTE="Bob Blaylock, post: 768734, member: 16749"] The results will probably vary considerably from one lens to another, but the defining characteristic of a DX lens would be that it is not designed to cover the entire frame a on FX camera. Some years ago, I ran a roll of TRI-X through my F2, and one shot, I took, using the 18-55mm DX lens that came with my D3200. This picture was taken with the lens zoomed out to 18mm. As you can see, it does not completely cover the entire 35mm frame [ATTACH=CONFIG]363926._xfImport[/ATTACH] I didn't take any shots at other zoom levels, but I did observe through the viewfinder that as I zoomed in, that the coverage increased, and that at some point in that direction, and beyond, it did cover the whole frame.
