The "crop-factor" terminology looked as if it was going away for a while but now, with the boom in full-frame cameras and the resurgence of the Four Thirds format due to Micro Four Thirds, it's coming back. It's a convenient way of using a common reference (24mm x 36mm) to compare different formats on relatively equal footing.

At least it's more accurate than saying "this 50mm lens is a 100mm on a Four Thirds camera"! ;-)

The voices in my head are whispering to me again.
