A lens has always the same focal length, no matter on what camera you place it, and yet you're right, you have to consider the "crop factor", so a MF lens on a ff camera has a different field of view, than on a MF camera! You'll have to multiply your focal length by 0.something, depending on format! So, for example, if I take one of my 6x4.5 lenses, lets say, the 45-85mm and put it on my Canon 5D, it would compare to a 33.5-67mm in FF!
I just came across this topic again and was reading my reply and noticed, that I did not word it right. The mentioned lens, does indeed compare to a 33.5-67mm in ff frame, but that is used on a MF camera! I just wanted to correct myself, because it would be easy to misinterpret what I said! Sorry about that!
