[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 532372, member: 12496"] Agreed, there is other more specific data, but I don't like it. I'd rather just see the resolution numbers. Hard-headed I'm sure. :) Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 is a pretty fine lens. I use a D300 and D800 with it. DxO says for D300, it rates 8 mpix, whatever that is. For D800, it rates 15 mpix. I should have bought a D800E, that rates the lens 21 mpix. But I don't believe any of this. :) I don't believe those ratios. I do understand line widths per picture height downgrades DX due to the necessary greater enlargement, but not this. What I would want to know about is the lens itself. Fortunately, there are better (standard) tests. [/QUOTE]
