Your comparison of "digital zoom" and "crop" in PhotoShop is indeed correct, however (and without sounding challenging) it is not the same as the 1.3/1.6 "crop" term used in conjunction with the Canon DSLR line-up (or the 1.5 crop factor in the Nikon DSLR) which is definitely NOT "digital zoom", the 1.3/1.6 crop is a result when a smaller-than-35mm format digital sensor is used with the full-frame 35mm format lenses where only the smaller center portion of the full image is being picked up by the sensor, creating an equivalent magnification effect.

Ken,
It is my understanding that the S lens focal lengths are rated the same as full frame 35mm focal lengths and that the reason they are only for use on the smaller size sensors is a mechanical thing at thje mount.....
