Here's a noobish-type question regarding wide-angle adapters...
...specifically what do the numbers (.5x, .7x, etc) describing wide-angle adapters mean, in terms of the type of lens they allow me to simulate by shooting through them?
That is, if I wanted to figure out how to simulate, say, a 12mm lens, or a 15mm lens, how would I tell from the adapter description which adapter, and what setting on the DVX's lens, I would put together to get the desired focal length?
Didn't find anything by searching, so I'm hoping one of the resident expert-type guys will help me out, here...
