    Sorry, I used the wrong terminology. This is something to keep in mind for anyone that has preconceived notions of what type of zoom they need from experience with previous cameras. Of course there is no extra magnification but with the crop takes a smaller portion of the image than a full frame camera which in turn acts as zoom. Kind of like digital zoom on a point and shoot but you don't lose quality and you can't turn it off.

    I have the 50mm lens too. You can't beat it for the price.
