If I can own FX body but not the lens, can use DX lens temporary? I am using D90, if upgrade one shot go for FX which recommended by my friend. Saving money ><.... dun worry you still have cheapest 50mm f/1.8 FX lens can choose if you buy FX body. right now i DX body with FX lens... it is nothing to improve for now haha  you see even the Quicksilver? he use D600 + 35mm f/1.8 only DX This post has been edited by Agito666: Feb 4 2013, 03:30 PM

Looks like you are prepared for FX body ya since you have FX lens... Quicksilver or Silverfire? sounds familiar...haha...he is funding for lens? I check already... D700 is 5 fps but can boost until 8 fps with BG. How about D600? can boost it? if not to comparing fps between them, how about photo quality? Oh yea, D7100 rumors haven't leak out any news or info yet right?

Getting Started

|
as from my view, get lens first...as FX lens still can use in DX body, and normally lens dont depreciate as fast as body... so, my concept was like invest in lens better than body, but do invest on body if you find it limits you.
Also, if you have FX body without FX lens, DX lens get vignetted on FX body unless you zoom it till certain zoom range...
thats what i thinking, because i tahan now with D7000 and kitlens, saving for FX lens..lolx...

D700 body feels damn nice and solid, even the leather grip is different. Try to hold D600 then u won't buy it after trying D700

The built quality I think will surely not be comparable to D700, D800 or above~ That said, I think the built of the D600 is very impressive already, living up to its name as a Nikon

We been shooting a lot of d600 and its a decent body, but I find that its short comings are very LOUD. Like when shooting in interior with C/FL lights with out flash, see a lot of red and see a lot of greens. Then another thing is at the most minimum, must use extreme class (for sandisk) SDcards, else after 10-12 raw shots you will wait for it to buffer... buffer and buffer. Anything above 30mb/s is fine. So the slower cards we use for video. That said, the dynamic range on the d600 is phenomenal (coming from d300). The amount of detail is amazing. Metering (well lit) is AMAZiNG. But I would not buy a d600. Sticking with my d300 until the shutter dies. or when Nikon comes up with something better than the d600. else I'm jumping ship to a mk3... ehem.. 130120-Mei-011 by Cybreed, on Flickr D600 + Soligor 250mm f/4.5 This post has been edited by gerald7: Feb 4 2013, 08:12 PM

A decent FX lens like wide angle 14-24mm or 24-70mm cost a boom >< need to save a lot....that why i feel FX is like a unreachable star for me. Btw, I am tahan using D90 now...... the noise... urgh...sometimes beh tahan...

QUOTE(Pro3363 @ Feb 4 2013, 09:11 PM) The problem now with the D600 is the AF points is stuck in the middle only.........!  But still i will get one in the future......  You are right, but coming from a D90, its a very huge improvement nevertheless haha And its not like we have any alternatives since the others are so expensive (unless if can still find a D700), the release of a D600 makes owning a FX camera so less damaging to pockets, especially for hobbyists
