[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 207251, member: 12496"] Very true, but 35mm film has 43mm diagonal, which is the correct formula, but 50mm lenses were always assumed "normal". But certainly yes, in these ball parks. Lots of DX users hear about some importance of classical 50 mm (or 105mm) lenses, and automatically assume this has the same meaning for DX. DX users instead need to divide FX numbers by 1.5 (then 50/1.5 = 33mm, and 105/1.5 = 70mm). In this ball park. [/QUOTE]
