I have said before (and oft been shouted down) that each manufacturer should label their lenses with its ‘true effective’ (cropped) size. Thus a Nikon DX 35mm lens could be labeled a 50mm (or 52.5mm) lens and users would know what they are reaching for without having to do a mental math adjustment first. An Oly/Pany 17mm would be labeled a 34mm lens.
I agree 100%.
I have taken tens of thousands of slides.
All are the "old fashioned" way.
If it said 90mm on the lens, that is what it was in 35mm jargon.
I didn't own a zoom lens.
I don't understand what the new lens is now.
