Teddy Rex Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) I bought a nikon 35mm dx to connect to my 5d mkiii but when I move the focus the shutter is seen on screen. Is there any reason for this? I've being looking for answered everywhere. Edited November 18, 2013 by Teddy Rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teddy Rex Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 Sorry I'm new to this site. How do I add an image? I only have my phone to hand to add images via the internet so I'm using my phone. The image is cut off on each corner. It looks like the beginning of a James Bond sequence.

Tim Tyler Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Vignetting then? Is the DX lens designed for a full-frame sensor like the 5D mkIII? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddy Rex Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 I have the dx 50mm and it works fine and lots of people have mentioned mounting their 35mm to the 5d. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted November 19, 2013 Premium Member Share Posted November 19, 2013 Nikon DX is an APS-C size format, approximately 24x16 mm. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikon_DX_format Canon 5D is full frame, 36x24 mm sensor. Most if not all DX lenses will vignette on a 5D. As far as I'm aware there is no Nikon DX 50mm, just FX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
