Hi all.
pardon me but i need to ask this question thats been puzzling me.
Googling around doesnt help much either as they go very straight into the detail if i type out the following and not answering my question. here it goes:
Why is it that when talking about camera lens 28mm, 24mm, 21mm, these are talking about wide angle. like 21mm is wider as compared to 24mm.
But lens that are saying 18-55mm, these are talking about zoom. isnt it like 18mm will be wider and 55mm will be a narrower view?
If use a 18-55mm, set to 18mm, the pictures taken will be wider than a non-zoom lens of 21mm?
Thanks for all your kind understanding as I believe this is a super noob question which I believe I had misinterpreted the jargon somewhere also...
