[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 309666, member: 24285"] Yes, saw the DX mode - the salesman showed me how to use that but explained that if I'm going to open in a photo editor (I use Corel Paintshop Pro 6) then I'd get a little larger image than the auto DX crop in the camera but very similar. And frankly the vignetting ain't that big of an issue. And the old Nikkor 28-80 is a AF-D, at least that's what it says on the box, on the lens itself it only says "AF" no "D". ?? Either way it does autofocus, It was part of my F60 kit so initially a film lens. Maybe it does not AF fast enough for the burst shots (even on quiet burst, RAW + JPG fine which is about 1 fps - I'd guess based on the sounds of the clicks). I'll have to take some time and do some test shots comparing the images from the DX kit vs this old film kit lens and see which produces better images. [/QUOTE]
