Originally posted by Richard Cichon The lens is 30mm but with that 1.5 cropped sensor factor it makes 45mm. So you say I'm still going with 30mm, right ?
You have had the correct advice above, but if I can elaborate it may help your understanding.
The focal length of a lens is a physical property of the lens. It describes the distance between the optical centre of the lens and the plane of the sensor. As long as you are using it on a format/mount for which it was intended (ie without teleconverter or mount converter), that cannot change.
The image magnification the lens produces
at the sensor is identical for both aps-c and FF. So for the purposes you need the FL for ( AF adjustment), you need to input the FL of the lens which will always be 30mm in this case
