Eric, so my AF lenses came off the 35mm f501 which should mean they are
in effect FX and when fitted to the d7100 DX will increase mag by 1.5.
This means that if I want wide angle I will have to purchase new DX lenses
I pressume.


Spot on. :thumbs:


It's interesting because lens change into new ideal uses. For example a 50mm lens gives 75mm...which makes it an acceptable portrait lens (typically 85mm were always considered best for portraits)

If you want to do wide areas indoors and large groups you need wider than your 24mm.
