Uh... anyway, as the guy who started this thread...

I bought the lens (Nikon 50mm f/1.8). Even if it's not "normal" for me, I
like the f/1.8-ness of it.

So once again, with these cameras, the 50mm lens is telephoto, the
35mm is "normal". It really is that simple.

Yep.
And you wrote a lot to indicate just how simle you think it is.

OTOH, a lot of people like to understad the tools they are using, and
how they work.
They think this understanding lets them use the tools better.


Well, I dunno...

I have the barest understanding of how a refrigerator works (some kind
of siphoning of energy from the full moon, I think) but the shortcoming
doesn't keep me from grabbing a cool beer now and then. Of course my
needs are relatively simple. If I needed to keep strawberry icecream
cold, it might be too big a challenge. Some day I'll have to look behind
that top door...

Do you use the fridge to make the beer? :-)
