Ex1 focal length vs 1.6 crop

I'm shooting a short on an Ex1, but am storyboarding tommorow with my t2i. What is the relationship with the ex1 focal length's and my t2i? Are the mm on the ex1 the same as a 35mm?

Just want to somewhat get both right because its in a small room and don't want to grab a certain shot with my t2i that I later find out I can't achieve with the ex1.
 
I believe the multiplication factor for the 1/2" chips are 5.2-5.6... so its more like a 32-33mm at the wide end.....
 
The true size of the EX1 lens is 5.8-81.2mm, so the 35mm equivalent is, 31.4 mm to 439 mm.

If your T2i is an APS-C sensor its probably a 1.6 factor. You would need a 20mm lens to be equivalent. So depending on what your lens is.

There is an EF 20mm f/2.8 USM lens that would be perfect. Also, the 18-55mm kit lens would work, but not at the widest setting.
