zhuangyan said:i am now using D70 which has crop factor of 1.5 and the kit len 18-70
does that mean the focal length will be 18x 1.5=27mm when the focal ring is at 18mm?if it is, wad can i do if i want 18mm instead of 27mm focal length.
i have heard of full frame sensor, there are other sensors like 4/3 and the other one(cant rmb), wad are the function of there sensor?poh6702 said:1. Go for film camera, but the 18mm D70 kit lens does not fit it, to get a full frame 18mm lens is not cheap also.
2. Instead of paying above $5k to get those full frame camera body, it might be better to buy the 12-24mm lense which cost between $1k - $2k depending on brands.
I am keen to know the price of yet to launch Sigma 10-20mm lens, if it is resonable, may consider buying one.

1) Expensive (digital) - Top Canon models as what espn had mentioned + Kodak 14n, Kodak Pro SLRn/c.
2) Cheap (film) - All SLR cams.
The sensor is the part that captures the image, it is like the film in normal film base cameras. And normaly its smaller then a 35mm film hence the crop factor is applied.zhuangyan said:i have heard of full frame sensor, there are other sensors like 4/3 and the other one(cant rmb), wad are the function of there sensor?
