I asked the question of yours to myself often... I'm upgrading from D90 to D700 and feel quite comfortable inside, because:



- I love shooting with wide angle lenses; bird shooting or sports photography is not my style.

- except for my 11-16mm Tokina, all of my lenses are FF compatible. This one was the most critical issue for me, because UWA lenses for FX are quite pricy (the -expected to be- new Tokina 16-28mm can be a relief).

- bigger pixels = higher tonal range and good ISO perfromance (I don't need huge prints). The D700 owners I talked with, told me that usually 400 is their base ISO (also they can take brilliant pictures with ISO 1600).

- D700 is an affordable FX body in Nikon universe. I gave up waiting for a D700 successor which will be most probably a D700x with video avalibility (and with a significant higer price tag).



Yet; having said these, I will see if my expectations will be met, beginning from next week...



Kind regards,

Your Tokina 11-16mm f2.8 is also "FF compatible". It will mount, it will AF, and it will give a fine vignette free image at 16mm.



So you can still use it perfectly on your Nikon D700. Just not as 11-16mm zoom, but as 16mm f2.8 prime.
