I solved the problem, too. I put a lens on my camera. I look through the viewfinder. What I see in the viewfinder mostly corresponds with what's going to show up on the picture. Okay, seriously, I guess I just don't need to know exact equivalencies. A 16mm will be wider than a 24mm on all bodies - that's about all I need to know. After nearly a couple of years, I have a pretty good idea what a lens of a given focal length will do on film on my *istD. Exact numbers don't interest me so much... ;-) cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
