[QUOTE="JoeLewisPhotography, post: 57525, member: 3571"] FX is generally only better on a DX (financially speaking), if you are planning to upgrade in the future to an FX (Full Frame) body. FX is pro grade glass, and costs 2-3 times as much as DX lenses. if money is no object, the obvious choice would be FX. They work just fine on DX bodies. It's the DX lenses that dont work well (or at all in some cases) on FX bodies. - If you buy FX, it will last you as long as you are into photography, no matter which body you have and you will have "pro" grade glass. - If you buy DX, you will have a lesser quality lens that will limit you should you upgrade bodies someday. You will have to sell your DX lenses and buy all FX lenses anyway. Make sense? Onto your last question...the 60mm micro is labeled as an FX and will work just fine on your body. The 70-300 though is a DX lens which will also work well. It depends on your budget, and how serious you are and plan to be about photography. if money is no object, go for the better FX stuff. if you are on a budget like most people, and this is just a hobby for you, the DX stuff will suit you just fine.
