Re: Lens for Canon D-10

[lea murphy <lea@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Last Christmas I bought a Canon 35mm lens for my Canon 10Ds which gives me a 
35mm equivilent of 56mm. It's the lens on the camera that goes with me 
everywhere I go. Love that 'normal' perspective. And it's fast, too. A 2.0.

Sure, but the D10 *is* reduced-field.  The sensor is 1.6 x smaller
(linearly) than a 35 mm frame, and 1.6 x 50 = 80.  Put a D10 with 50 mm
lens beside a full-frame 35 with 80 mm lens, and you´ll get identical
fields of view.
