Question: Will this lens work with an Nikon D2xs camera?
Document: If you are expecting this to work like a pro lens or take the place of a prime, you won't get that, but if you are comparing it to a 18-200 type lens I think it take a better image at the same magnification or at least I had much more keepers than with an 18-200 in my testing. The interesting part is that its actually a half decent lens on an DX camera if you don't mind the 35mm equivalent.
I ordered this lens as my &#34;stock&#34; lens with the Nikon D800. The sharpness isn't what i was hoping to get from my photos with this lens on. I felt as if i put a piece of junk on my camera but for what it is worth i can't expects too much.
Just doesn't do the FX camera justice.Conclusion:If you can get it for 400 or less, go for it. Don't even think about paying full price. There are also some super cheap older nikon film days zoom lenses for super cheap for those once in a while zoom lens needs - these can be had for 100 bucks and aren't quite up to par with this lens, but are close.
As a long time user of Nikon lenses and cameras, I was blown away by the sharpness, contrast and colors of this lens. Camera Labs ( a digital camera review site ) in recent testing praised this lens for all of the above mentioned. They tested it against the $1,800 24-70 2.8 and found that it is very very close the the 24-70 in most focal lenghts. I would recommend this lens as a great all-around lens.
I was a bit sceptical at first for purchasing a relatively cheap lens for an FX format sensor but I am very pleased with it. It has minimal distortion and very little CA. It is incredibly sharp. It has a bit of vignetting at the wider angles but nothing camera raw can't fix. The weight, build and size is very good. The feature to let you manual focus without needing to change settings is very convenient as well. I use this lens on a Nikon D800.
For video you can finally handhold and get a reasonably good image. No problems with panning, and it seems to work as well as any other VR/OS/VC mechanism I have encountered.Handling: It is very lightweight. Balances great on the D800. The zoom ring is stiff, but you do not have to worry about it shifting or creeping.
A great lens for travel; I carried other lenses but did not use them. The picture quality on a full frame camera was great especially when shooting raw photos.
I just upgraded to a full frame camera so I needed the zoom lens to go with it. This is certainly the best kit lens I've ever owned, and admittedly the most expensive. I have taken some great shots with it so far. Great clarity.
On my D7000 the images are great.The lens has a good solid build feel for its price. Its 465 gram weight balances very well on my camera. My refurbished lens looks and works like new. This is a very good lens value for DSLR owners especially if they have a D7000.
I bought this lens, and while it is not perfect, it is more than good enough for a general use, walking around lens on a full frame camera.As a reference, I am a prime lens snob, and have in my arsenal every Nikkor from 20mm to 300mm, many from over thirty years of film shooting.
Answer: Yes.  It works with all Nikon DSLRs whether DX or FX. The combination of the 24-85mm with the Nikon D2X,  a DX camera, should produce excellent results due to the smaller size of the image sensor, which is not as demanding as larger FX image sensors.
