[ClickOnMe]

SB-800
Nikon AF-S DX 17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED
Nikon AF 80-200mm f/2.8D ED
Nikon AF 50mm f/1.8D
Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED


Can the above equipments use in D700?

Yes, though the DX lenses are for crop bodies so you will experience vignetting.

Only the above 2 can..
Using DX lens (e other 2) on a FF body will only render the usage as a waste ( u r getting oni 5mp on a DX crop)

Flash (regardless)

 

[DinoSG]

best to use those without DX...

 

[catchlights]

All lenses and flash can use on D700, if it is DX lenses, the default [Auto DX Crop] mode will switch the format to DX mode once DX lens is detected.

my sample images again

a 17mm non DX lens on a FX camera

and a 17mm DX lens on a FX camera (see the Vignetting?)

All DX lenses will give you photos of about 5MP+ while only FX lenses can utilise the entire 12.1MP.

Are you sure u are ready for D700 if u cant tell the difference between DX and FX?

You can only shoot in DX mode (5 Mega-pixels) if you use them on the D700. Force the D700 to use FX mode and you'll get the vignetting as shown by Ortega.

You may already be aware, but here are some links on crop factor, pertinent to your D80 vs D700 comparison:

If you are thinking of upgrading, the pricelist in CS does segregate the lenses meant for DX:

i think nikon has these if my memory is rite...

12-24
24-70

for FX

I think the 12-24 f/4 is for DX. For wide-angle TS can choose from other zooms like the 14-24 and 17-35 among others.

Or wait for the rumoured 16-35 f4 ED VR :lovegrin:

Or, if not so keen to shoot below 20mm, go for the 20-35mm and save your $$$..
