Yup. :)

5x zoom, does not say anything about how long or short focal length it has. It could be from 1 - 5mm or 100 - 500mm.

Simplified:
High mm - Closer to subject.
Little mm - Wide angle.

When you look for new lenses, always go check out the mm, bot the multiply number.


Ok that's good to know, but... Holy shit, how does a 6 year old film camera have 170mm zoom? It's a compact camera too not an SLR or anything...

It is because of the small sensor. :)
When it is fullframe a 100mm is a 100mm. On my 450D the 100mm is a 160mm because of the 1,6 crop factor., and on yours it is possible much more. :)

All DSLR's are 1.6 crop factor? Most? Hardly any?

Well I think all the restaurant jobs are the same it doesn't really matter if you work at mceedees or a fancy restaurant for millionaires people are all the same except those rich people are mean in a special way like sarcastic and picky while those average slobs are more openly rude if you know what I mean. I guess I have just got used to working at restaurant serving people since I have been doing that at the age of 13 lol but I could loose my temple sometimes and at my current crappy job I am known to be rude to the customers because I am not the kind of person who would just stand there and take all the shit I would defend myself so screw the "customer is always right" crap lol. Oh btw being manager is not much better than a regular crew member because they are the one who have to deal with complaints and rude customers not to mention they are the ones who would hold responsible if anything goes wrong... plus they only get like a dollar or two more per hour which in my opinion is not worth all the crap they get all the time lol but you get to slack from time to time and treat those newly hired people as your slave lol.



If you mean by working for the city and picking up garbage. Well though it's not a good job but I wouldn't mind doing that for a month or two during the summer ^^ but of course as you said it's not really a respectable profession but neither is working at fast food places lol.


I never said better as in job description, i meant better as in money.

generally cheaper dslrs are 1.6

Me liking zoom lenses this is good because i dont have to spend as much money to get the required mm

but landscape and wide angle photographers suffer BIG time with a 1.6 crop factor camera. so they need a full frame camera

Would extension tubes give you farther zoom? I know they allow you to zoom farther without changing the minimum focus distance (This gives you those REALLY REALLY close up macro shots with telephoto lenses, like of the hair on a spider etc.)
but do they also give you more zoom?

I think I was a little bit confused by Mads' post and said those things to clarify or whatever I never meant to argue or whatever with you lol :p

I believe Nikon has 1.5x crop sensors in their cheaper DSLRs, from D40 up to D300.
