[QUOTE="TwistedThrottle, post: 791256, member: 46724"] Its probably a much more powerful feature on the pixel heavy Z7, but I find it a very useful feature even on the Z6. Recently went on vacation, 24-200 lens mostly lived on the Z6. When I needed more reach for a shot I knew I'd be cropping into anyways, the dx mode came in very useful. But its very frustrating to get a bunch of shots only to realize the camera is still set to DX mode. I find it's best to switch to DX for the photo its needed for and then switch right back to FX, especially if planning on printing larger than 8x10. If the photos are to stay on the computer or even printed small, I don't see much difference. It's probably most useful shooting video though. There is quite the range available with my favorite video lens, the 14-30 f4S using both FX and DX modes. I'll typically shoot video with this lens in the reverse, that is in DX video mode and then switch to FX if wider is needed and I don't notice any difference in video mode. [/QUOTE]
