thursday 1 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Muika, you have DX lenses. They will work with the 700 in DX crop mode: FX format: 4,256 x 2,832 [L], 3,184 x 2,120 [M], 2,128 x 1,416 DX format: 2,784 x 1,848 [L], 2,080 x 1,384 [M], 1,392 x 920 Outside of the frame will be masked off.

muikabochi 208 Posted March 12, 2009 Author Share Posted March 12, 2009 Thanks. Not sure what all that means though thursday. Would I be better off with the 700 or would it actually not be a good move? Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Muika, I think it goes down to the conversation of whether DX will stick around or not. Even if DX cameras disappeared from the market tomorrow, there'd stil be years and years of life in them. I just love the features the D700 has and how easy it is to use. Feels like I'm holding the D200 again but with a lot more fun features. So, how many DX lenses have you got? Are you willing to let them go and buy full frame AFSs. Maybe not now, maybe not ever. Anyway, worth thinking about just for the fun of it. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted March 12, 2009 Author Share Posted March 12, 2009 Thanks thursday. I have 3 Nikkor lenses (wrote them somewhere else, can't remember their official names off-hand) - the 18-200, the fisheye and the very wide angle. Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 This was brilliant. look at them, much like teracotta warriors Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted December 8, 2009 Author Share Posted December 8, 2009 Thanks. I liked these pics as well. I definitely want to go back again and take loads more. All about the timing I think with Zao even more than elsewhere perhaps. You want the monsters to be looking good, as well as the weather to cooperate. Link to post Share on other sites
