[QUOTE="blueiron, post: 1444, member: 203"] For some reason, I was trying to recall Canon's numbers, which are about factored at 1.6x. Nikon's DX sensors are about 16x24mm. Standard 35mm film is 24x36mm. Take the film dimension divided by the sensor dimension and you get 1.5x. Therefore a 50mm lens on a 35mm camera ends up being ~75mm on a DX camera. [/QUOTE]
