70-200VR performance on Fx
http://www.diglloyd.com/diglloyd/blo...7Nikon70_200VR
Seems the beloved (on Dx) and expensive 70-200VR is a casualty. Many posts on DPReview about this - many in denial mode ("it's a PJ lens - so what if the corners aren't sharp?" etc). "The problem is so severe that stopping down to f/8 or f/11 (or even f/16) is insufficient to overcome it; it appears that the 70-200VR simply cannot “cover” the 36 X 24mm frame adequately." Bjorn Rorslett has "downgraded" the lens on FX - but not far enough if that performance is typical, as it seems it may be. Nikon did warn that Dx had some advantages. |
