[QUOTE="Moab Man, post: 591470, member: 11881"] A long macro lens is a plus. Too often when trying to photograph little bugs and such you get too close and they split. A full frame lens on a crop sensor is not a bad thing or a good thing so never sweat it. If it were DX lens to full frame then you are giving up part of the sensors image area. Just like the Tokina acting like a 150mm, the 85mm will act like a ~128mm lens due to the cropped sensor regardless of if the 85mm is a DX lens or not. Yes you will still get 1:1 Distortion... every lens will naturally have a bit of distortion. This is easily corrected for in Camera Raw assuming you are using Lightroom or Photoshop. Both lenses have built in focus motors - just checked the spec. [/QUOTE]
