As I understand it, the D90 is NOT a full-frame SLR, and as such it multiplys the image by 1.5 (?) to compensate for the lack. Now I was reading about prime lenses because I am really starting to get cracking with my photography and it has been stated that the 50mm prime lens is the normal "human eye" range for full-frame slrs, and that due to the focal length multiplier in smaller sensors the 50mm in actuality is 85mm. This I understand. What I don't understand is this: when I peep through my viewfinder and set my zoom at 85mm, the image I see is definately not human eye length and 50mm definately is. Yet according to what I have read this shouldnt be so. Is this because the zoom lens has been made in order to compensate for the focal length multiplier already? Wouldnt it then mean that all D lens compensate for this aswell?
The lens I am getting is the 50mm f/1.4D
