[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 359240, member: 24753"] Simply put, the focal length of a lens is the length from the sensor to a specific point in the lens. More complicated, but lets keep it simple. So, focal length of a lens does not change unless you move the lens closer or farther away from the sensor. Assuming the lens is mounted to a camera without adapter, extension, converter, etc., the focal length never changes. Simply put, the change from FX to DX using the same lens is the size of the captured image. That's it. A DX crops compared to an FX. It does not zoom, telephoto or magnify the subject in any way.
