Hardly anybody use DX lens on FX body.

I do use DX mode pretty often on my D800 though

I use it on Birding when i need the extra reach

 

[Sgdevilzz]

It cuts down the megapixels by half doesn't it. D800 is acceptable since it has 36megapixels :bigeyes:

What dx lens do you use for birding? I thought all long lenses were fx.

Actually, it cuts down to 40% left. But 15.2mp is just as great on D800

I think he meant the camera mode bro, not the lens.

I don't have any facts and figures to support my claims, but the max aperture of F/5.6 and the track records of the super zoom of Nikon, you can rest assure it will perform better than the 18-250mm from sigma. And, I think it's already available.

Thanks mate. Got a little confused there.

Do note though that the 18-300mm weighs 850g.

OMG, the price here in Singapore is so ridiculous. The 18-300mm is only USD999.95 which worked out to be S$1,280 max. Nikon Singapore is really treating us like suckers these days!

the prices stated are RRP and not the actual selling price at the shops, i believe that it is to tell you that you should not be paying higher than that

 

[lloh108]

I am comparing RRP of US with SIN using current exchange rate.
