Last updated: December 2024

This is the short answer:

The camera and lens you have chosen might work but in a cropped mode since the lens is constructed for a smaller APS-C sensor.

Cropped Mode and Lower Resolution

This lens has focal length:
12-24 mm

You will experience:
18-36 mm

Using a lens constructed for an APS-C sensor can result in the resolution being lower than the 36 MP that the Nikon D810 has.

Focal Length

18-36 mm
