What does this mean - 35mm equivalent?

Hi Tony

The K-50 isn't a 35mm body - it has a smaller APS-C sensor, which is cropped by a factor of 1.5x when compared to a 35mm or so-called "full frame" sensor. Because of this, if you fit a lens of 110mm focal length to it, the field of view captured by the smaller sensor will be equivalent to that from a 165mm (110mm x 1.5 crop factor) lens on a 35mm camera :)
