Well I'm dangerously close to having the cash to get a D2X.

I'm still undecided weather to get the D200 or not (instead of the D2X) and it's basically a battle of the autofocus systems (for me).

Anyway... Just looking for a little info on weather my current lenses will perform well on the D2X? I've heard it's very good at showing flaws in lenses...

Nikkor: 18-70 f3.5-4.5 DX (My D70 Kit lens)
Sigma 100-300 f4 HSM EX
Sigma 180mm Macro
Nikkor 500 AFS-I

Also I plan to get the:
Nikkor 12-24 f4

Could anyone with a D2X and any of these lenses comment on if they are good enough for the D2X? It's mainly the Sigma's I'd be concerned about I guess (compared to their Nikon competition)

Thanks in advance

Paul of the lens which you mentioned I have and use two. The 18-70 kit lens, and the Sigma 180mm macro. I can say in complete honesty that they are very compatible with the D2x and I have yet to find any flaws with either.

NikonUser - can not see a problem with any of the lenses on the D2x including the yet to be purchased 12-24DX.

You would run into a problem with the Sigma's on a D200 though:

Thanks,

I know about the sigma thing with the D200. I'm not sure that I'd want to use the seperate buttons for Autofocus and Shutter release. I could aways get them re-chipped.

I"m leaning very heavily on the side of the D2X at the moment anyway. I don't think D200's AF is as much of an upgrade to the D70's in low light... I seem to shoot a lot of low(ish) light birds and that's my main trouble with the D70. At double the price though the CAM2000 is a very expensive feature

If I get the D2X that's the end of my camera (and other hobbys) expenses for at LEAST 12 months. A D200 would give me a little money to play with. Finances suck when you don't have enough of them

Paul,
No problems with the D2x on all the lenses you have.
They'll perform perfectly as you wish.
