A lot of people are fooled by the camera manufactures so called 1.5 or 1.6 etc. factors for their camera bodies. Example, a 100mm lens used on a 1.5x body does not give you a 150mm lens. It only gives you an angle of view like a 150mm lens which in reality is only cropping your 100mm angle of view.It does not make your lens a 150mm.

I'd be curious to know who many of those who don't understand the concept have never shot 35mm, let alone any larger format.

Might I suggest you start your own thread entitled "To GoofyNewfie" rather than hijack another members thread, especially a new member.

No, I prefer hijacking the threads of others, especially new members. Gee, I hope this doesn't make him quit UHH.
