[QUOTE="JDFlood, post: 133928, member: 11653"] The crop is a function of the camera (sensor size) not of the lens. So, the innate "magnification" of a 200mm DX and FX is the same... Since an FX lens will work on either body, it produces a 200mm telephoto effect on a FX body and a 300mm effect on a DX body. The DX camera, given it's smaller sensor size ( and equal distance to the sensor) only captures the center part of the image projected by the FX lens which is what gives it it's appear ant higher magnification.
