[QUOTE="Mediaman09, post: 100608, member: 9503"] Thank you for the corrections re equivalent focal length. I updated the list accordingly...but have some new questions re (4) and (6) ... 1) 100mm lens on conventional SLR = 100 mm in 35mm format 2) 100mm FX lens on FX camera = 100 mm in 35 mm format 3) 100mm FX lens on DX camera = 150 mm in 35 mm format ( Nikon has a 1.5x crop factor) 4) 100mm DX lens on FX camera = 66 mm ?? ( FX camera will step down to DX sensor size so you will get a cropped picture, and at a lower resolution) 5) 100mm DX lens on DX camera = 150 mm in 35 mm format ( Nikon has a 1.5x crop factor 6) 100mm Legacy F-mount lens on a DX camera = ?? mm. For example I have an old 28 mm wide angle Nikkor f2.8 No. 486439. What is the equivalent focal length on the 5100? [/QUOTE]
