Does anyone use FX lense on DX body?

Hi, i'm planing on buying nikon's 24-70 fx lens, i was wondering if it will lack of quality when used on a D90 (DX sensor ). And yes i know that the lens will have a different focal length on a crop sensor… Does anyone use full frame lenses on crop sensors?

Yes, but on Leica. It works fine

No, it does not compromise quality. You can use a FX lens on a DX body, but not a DX lens on an FX body.
You will LOVE the 24-70 on your camera. Probably almost 90% of lenses are FX. There aren't that many that are for DX only. Usually it's ultra wide zooms and teh cheaper consumer grade lenses that aren't compatible with the FX bodies. Besides, if you are spending that much on a camera body you probably don't want to put cheap consumer lenses on it. That would be defeating the purpose!

Yes, most of the lenses I own are FX rather than DX. I shoot film as well as digital and I find it's much more convenient to use FX lenses. FX lenses work just fine on DX bodies.

Contrary to what HisWifeTheirMother said, you CAN use DX lenses on FX bodies. The only problem is that they will cause vignetting because they are designed for cropped sensors. Nikon's full-frame DSLR's have a DX format mode that allows you to shoot with DX lenses without vignetting. If you're using them on a film SLR, though, you'll have to deal with the vignetting on the edges of the picture.

The 24-70mm f/2.8 is an excellent lens. I never go anywhere without it in my kit, and the image quality is superb on my D90. HWTM is right--you're going to love it.

I'm using a number of FX lenses, in fact the only DX lens I have is a 16-85, the rest is all FX.

With FX lenses on DX bodies you only use the middle part of the lens, Many lenses first show their weaknesses on the edges and you don't use these on DX so FX lenses will work perhaps just a bit better on DX

I have a D90 and most of my lenses are FX. I plan on making the jump to a full-frame camera in a few years, so I buy FX lenses rather than DX lenses whenever I can.

The only exception is at the super-wide angle. You have to buy a DX lens or you won't get as large of a field-of-view (I have the Tokina 11-16mm for that).

HisWifeTheirMother is correct if it is a Canon camera. The mirror on the full frame Canons will smack the back of the EF-S lens (their version of a DX lens). There's even a pin on the lens that prevents mounting it on a full frame camera. Yet another reason to avoid Canon. But on a full frame Nikon, the camera will go into "DX mode" and you can use a DX lens just fine, with the caveat that you are not using the full sensor.
