[QUOTE="hark, post: 732103, member: 13196"] Brian, my first DX body was the D90 before upgrading to the D7100. The only DX lens I bought was the 55-200mm VR. I already had glass from my 35mm film cameras (glass which would be considered FX). Everything else I've ever purchased has been FX glass. No adverse issues using FX glass on a DX body. If anything, you might notice an improved quality with your images - specifically sharpness and possibly contrast unless you invest in some of the more expensive DX lenses. The build of FX lenses tends to be a little more robust, too. The mounts on most (and maybe all) Nikon FX lenses usually are metal vs the plastic mounts of some DX lenses. My first 70-200mm f/2.8 was by Sigma. Eventually I upgraded to the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 VRii. I've heard the Tamron lens is closer in quality to the Nikon than my Sigma lens. As for the Nikon tripod foot, mine can be removed from the lens. Usually that can be done - some lenses have a tripod collar that fastens around the lens. Those are also removable. Good luck with whatever you choose. :encouragement: [/QUOTE]
