So, if it's a DSLR look for 17/18mm or lower, if it's a compact or bridge camera, look for 28mm equivalent or lower | |
| Dec 7, 2010 at 23:15 | comment | added | Andrea Ambu | This seems a great answer! Thank you! I think I will go for the Canon, I've saw only fixed 28mm and 10-22mm seems too expensive. Is there a list of the default sizes? In many stores it comes bundle with a 18-55mm, how can I tell when they are talking about the equivalent or not? Because 28 seems to be between 18 and 55 :P | |
