would this lens work on an FX body?

Not sure, check Sigma site, they have all the info you could possibly need.

Yes it could but it was designed for a crop sensor and not full frame, so you would see a dark border around your images. The other option would be to set your camera to DX mode, but that sort of defeats the purpose, I will say this is a great lens for those on a budget.

I bought it with a Canon formated base. You can order it with a Nikon. If it works for an FX body I don't know... Isn't an FX body a film camera? This model is for Digital cameras (note the "DC" designator).

No reason. It's a DX lens but as long as the camera is in DX mode it will work just fine. It would probably work in FX mode but would cause heavy vignetting in the corners.

I wouldn't put this on a DX camera. Lenses like this always contain compromises and the compromises made in this lens - some of which make this a $1000 lens - are optimized for FX. I'm very happy with it on my D750, but for DX I'd look more towards the 18-200, which covers a similar equivalent zoom range on DX.

This (or any) DX lens should work fine. It does'nt contain the "VR" (Vibration Reduction) Feature in it however so if that's important to you look for the VR designation on the lens you buy

This lens is a DX format lens and it will only work on DX format cameras and it will only auto-focus if that camera has a focus drive motor. The D70 does NOT have a drive motor. The available 16mm is made for the FX format cameras, those are digital cameras that are the size of 35mm film cameras. It can also be used on a DX, but there will be a focal length 1.5 multiplier added, so it would act like a 24mm and will have a dramatically narrowed field of view at 107 degrees.

The lens that I bought was for a D5200 . Dx mount. It works on my D7100 also.Like I said Dx mount not Fx.

This is FX lens. But it works just fine with DX camera as well having effective focal length range 120-600mm.

Yes, this lens is mainly for FX cameras however works great on DX cameras like the D7000 just be aware that the focal length in DX is not 200mm because of the crop factor, anyway works great almost same as the Nikon but half price

To answer the question, YES, DX lenses can be used in FX mode. You can turn off the auto DX crop and assign it to the func button if you want to. You can crop the picture later if you want. Even though the corners of some lenses will be shaded, you can get a neat looking square crop. You can have a lot of fun experimenting. On my Tokina 12-24mm F4, I can use it as wide as 17mm without vignetting. However, on my Tamron 17-50mm F2.8, it vignettes at all focal lengths.

I have tested this on a FX body and indeed it is a true FX lens. To get the focus just right, you can use Live View mode and magnify the area you want in focus, and then take the photo.

Yes it's a prime lens and if you use it on a dx camera you'll have to back up a bit not so much on fx cameras of course out doors ,distance would be less of a issue. Unless you need 1.4 there are better choices out there like a 14-24 or 16-35.

It will work, this not an easy lens but if you do a lot bracketing you can get some great shots for the money.

Yes it will. It will work with FX, DX and 35mm Nikon cameras. Read more about the lens at http://kenrockwell.com/nikon/50f18E.htm

Yes. However, because it was designed for FX format, it will function, focal-length wise, as a 52.5 mm lens on DX format cameras, such as the D3100. DX has a crop factor of 1.5, so 35 x 1.5 = 52.5. I use it on my DX format D5300. Love it! Great portrait lens.

Yes mam it is. I use mine on my D7000. I love this lens but I'm really looking forward to shooting it on an FX camera. Works just fine on DX however.

This lens is best for FX cameras not a.p.s. size c. You would be far better off with a DX lens.

although its an Fx lens it will work with crop sensor D300 beautifully. Just take into consideration the crop factor. F2.8 should be good for low light situation and indoor sport.
