hi ed do you think or know if the quality obtained by using your d800 in dx crop mode is better or is it the same as just using a dx cropped camera to start with such as the d7000 .
this is the point that bewilders me ,i know you get extra lens reach from your camera using dx mode ,but would the likes of myself that just does mainly long range wildlife gain anything by moving up a notch or should i stay with the d7000 .
From my experience the D3 cropped to D300 size was as good, if not better.
I reasoned it was purely down to bigger pixels in the D3...as they both have 12mp.
But in the case of the D800 and D7000 there is a difference in pixel numbers that is likely to offset this advantage to some degree.
I bet the D4 and D7000 behave the same as the D3/D300 pair.
