A discussion on a Nikon facebook group grabbed my attention.
Regarding the Nikon 70-200 2.8 VR1, it was mentioned that lens was designed for DX digital bodies. The lens arrived in 2003 and the only Nikon digital bodies were DX at that time, that lens was also for 35mm film bodies if I recall.
It was also stated that lens only resolved to 11MP, using it on later model, FX, digital cameras capable of higher megapixels, would result it not allowing the camera to make the best of the sensor technology.
This was the first time I heard this information, and as it was just two people on a facebook group, I wanted to bounce this off of the well informed members here
Thoughts?
