[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 806123, member: 48483"] Going back to the original question: Is this about using a DX lens on a full frame body? Or are you curious for specifically photographing with the crop using FX lens? There is no advantage to this in my opinion. It is simply a way of adapting existing gear until you can get the right gear working together. Here is the rundown. Lower cost DX telephoto lens is going to reveal it's limitations even more so with a higher-megapixel sensor. As in no real improvement in photo quality. If you use a good FX lens on the FX body, you simply are making a smaller photo cropped from the image in the camera. Just leave it full size and do your cropping in post. You will have way more options that way. It's not that there is more "zoom reach" in DX, you get the exact same size image on the sensor itself. What happens is you get less image. And 1.5x increase in apparent depth of field. [/QUOTE]
