HOW WIDE??

Ever wanted to ask a professional how they approach the landscape or wildlife or how they set up their camera for great photographs? What about asking what kind of gear the pro uses and why? Well here's your chance.

HOW WIDE??

Just wondering how wide a lens, max, that could be used to full advantage of the D 700's FX sensor. ???? I already know 18 is too wide, so? ") THANKS!!!

They make a 14-24mm that works on it, but that may be too wide for your tastes. Here's a link to some images taken with a D700 that shows the lens and focal length used. Hope this is helpful.

What do you mean "too wide" ? Too wide for the sensor to resolve it? If it is that case than "wow, that sensor sucks" :)

It would seems you do not understand the ratio thing-- to say the sensor sucks on a D700 proclaims to the entire world you have NO IDEA what you are talking about-- :roll:
