I was wondering if anyone has experience of using Nikons 12-24 f4 and 17-55 f2.8 DX lenses on the D700. Any comments or advice welcome...:thumbs:
 
If it's anything like the D3 you can set it to automatically crop the sensor to DX dimensions.

Of course you then have a pretty expensive 6mp camera.

Might be worth giving it a shot using the full sensor just to see what you get, I used an 18-55 on my D3 and it only vignetted about half way into the zoom range.

If you disable crop mode it will work from 19 / 20mm if I remember correctly, and the other one from about 25mm, probably dependent on aperture as to how dark the corners are.
 
Maybe the best bet would be to sell the DX lenses and pick up FF compatible glass?
