Is there any reason this would not work on a full frame D800 (engaging the menu setting for a DX lens)?

No reason. It's a DX lens but as long as the camera is in DX mode it will work just fine. It would probably work in FX mode but would cause heavy vignetting in the corners.

Yes, I have an D800 and it works great, I also used it with the D80 and it worked equally as well!

I know that it is for a dx instead of full frame and you may get some vignetting but that is not always true. I would google 11-16 full frame vignetting to see what others have experienced. luke

I can have you use it by having you change the imaging range of the camera to DX format on the occasion of the use with "the FX camera such as Nikon D600". But thank you for your understanding beforehand because I cannot have you use imaging element (FX format) of the camera to the maximum.

I'm surprised, I would have thought that would work, especially with the D7000. Sorry, I guess I can't help with this one. Good luck!

I use on an fx body - d800. You could probably use on a dx body but it would cropped and therefor not be optimal. Also note that whatever body you use this on it is a manual focus only.

Yes it works on the D80, including the AF. But it is not that wide at 24mm because of the cropped sensor. Still great for a general zoom lens though.

Hi All, very interested in these postings but still can't get this lens to work with my D70 in M or AF. I too get fEE message displayed and shutter won'r fire, even after locking off at f22 etc. Starting to wonder if its a camera setting or am I missing something?

I'm not familiar with the D80, but I can tell you that if your camera has an internal focusing motor, it will work just fine. I used it on a D90 (the direct successor to the D80) without issue, and now it's my primary lens on my D7000. Just keep in mind that this lens was designed for a full-frame sensor. Due to the size difference between full-frame and the DX sensor (what the D40, D60, D80, D90, D5xxx series, D7xxx series, etc. uses), the focal length will be extended by about 1.5x.

Probably just an oversight. There shouldn't be any issue with it working on a D700.

Yes - I used mine (very, very briefly) with my D800. When it worked, it was perfect, but it then failed suddenly and has not worked since.

I am a Nikon Shooter so I have used the Sigma 10-20 f3.5 with a D3200 crop 1.5 sensor and a D800e full frame sensor. This lens will work on both. But on the D3200 I get a 24 MP image and on the D800e at switches to DX mode and I get a cropped 19.2 MP Image down from the 36 MP full frame image. I hope this helps.

It works very good in my D7000.Is there remote menu on D810? If there is it I think it will work.

Yes it works great on my d800....fantastic for indoor sports...or outdoor for that matter...the lens is very heavy and works best with a tripod....

You can use it but it will be as a DX lense which is cropped. Use the 28-300mm FX equivalent which is designed for the D800.I have both lenses and I use the 18-300mm lense on my Nikon 3200. IMHO, The 28-300mm FX lense takes the same quality picture as the 18-300mm DX lense.I have a D600 Nikon which cna work in both DX and FX mode. If you are going to spend that kind of money on a lense, then get the FX lenses ... period!
