Interesting "Angle of View" Article with helpful chart on B&H

Notice the only two systems that have full lens support are FF and 4/3rds? No. I noticed that the only system that had full lens support listed was 4/3, and that at the tele end, that chart is rather silly anyway. If a 1200mm lens gives 2.5 deg AOV on 35mm, then there's "no approximate millimetre equivalent" listed for any crop sensor camera (except 4/3). For APS-c "none currently available" over 800mm equivalent? I could swear I recently saw some test shots taken using Canon 1200mm with a 40d. Perhaps I was dreaming. Anyway, such charts seem destined to confuse those who might actually need to use them, and are completely superfluous to those who don't. |
