What is 50x optical zoom?

The 50x optical zoom lens is a 35mm equivalent of 24-1200mm, which can be extended to 100x using Zoom Plus. Thanks to its Ultra Sonic Motor the lens has near-silent zooming. To help take the sharpest shots possible there is 4.5 stop optical image stabilisation.

How much zoom is a 200mm lens?

So, a 200mm lens on a 35mm frame is about a 4x “zoom” to your eyes. On the 20D with the 1.6 crop factor, 200mm is about a 6.4x “zoom” ((200 x 1.6) / 50).

What is 35x optical zoom?

The 35x optical zoom lets you shoot up close with blur-free precision, and zoom out for wide-angled shots. Every detail sharp and clear. Nothing escapes the notice of a 20.1 MP sensor. Take detailed pictures with the high resolution 20.1MP Super HAD CCD sensor.

What is a 300mm zoom equivalent to?

At 300mm the lens will have the equivalence of a 450mm lens on a 35mm film camera or Nikon FX (Full Frame) digital camera. Many P&S cameras will say they have a 8x or 12x zoom, that just means that the longest focal length is 8x or 12x longer than the widest focal length.

What magnification is a 250mm lens?

At 250mm, the maximum magnification is 0.31x, which does not come into the true 1:1 macro range. The closest focusing distance is 1.1 metres.

How far can 30x optical zoom See?

However, a rough rule of thumb is that with a 4x zoom ratio you can ID someone 100 feet away. Following on from that, for identifying someone at 200 feet, you’ll need a 20x zoom ratio, and a 30x zoom ratio for 250ft.

How far is 16x zoom?

Best Zoom Range for Competition or Target Shooting

This is 16x scope magnification at 100 yards. It’s hard to tell in this picture, but when looking with my eye through the scope, it’s very easy to spot the bullet impacts in the paper at this distance.

What is 4x optical zoom? Different lenses can achieve different optical zoom ranges. You have probably seen a zoom definition displayed as a number such as 2x, 4x, 8x and so on. These mean how much you can magnify an image. For example, with 4x optical zoom, you can magnify the image up to 4x larger.

What is 24x zoom in mm?

This has a 24x zoom lens. It is described as having a zoom range of 25 to 600 mm . However, these are the “35mm equivalent” values which are useful for comparison purposes.

What does 35x optical zoom mean?

Say you buy a compact camera with a whopping 35x zoom. That sounds better than your DSLR lens with an 8x zoom, but this doesn’t mean that things look 35 times bigger than they do with your eyes. Instead, it means the ratio between the shortest and the longest focal length of that lens is 1:35.

What is 18x optical zoom equal to?

Its 18x optical zoom is equivalent to a 28- to 504 -mm lens for a film camera. Its range is wide enough for shooting in both tight quarters and at great distances. Although its lens doesn’t match the quality of the ones professional sports photographers use, a 504-mm telephoto is in the same ballpark, so to speak.

What zoom equals 300mm?

At 300mm the lens will have the equivalence of a 450mm lens on a 35mm film camera or Nikon FX (Full Frame) digital camera. Many P&S cameras will say they have a 8x or 12x zoom, that just means that the longest focal length is 8x or 12x longer than the widest focal length.

How many times zoom is a 300mm lens?

Here is an example: For a 300mm lens, divide 300 by 50 to get 6x magnification. Or divide 300 by 100 to get 3, then multiply 3 x 2 to get 6x.

What zoom is 500mm? So, using the formula, we now know we need a 400mm lens to approximate the magnification of an 8x binocular and a 500mm lens to approximate a 10x binocular. And, if you are familiar with camera lenses, you probably know that lenses of those focal lengths are most definitely not inexpensive.

How much magnification is a 600mm lens? Variable focal length lenses with a maximum focal length of between 400mm and 600mm are by far the most popular lenses for bird photography as they provide 8X magnification at 400mm and 12X magnification at 600mm when shooting with a full-frame sensor camera.

How many mm is 20x zoom?

At an aspect ratio of 4:3, the Canon 35 millimeter 20x optical zoom lens range is an impressive 51.8 to 1036 millimeters (35 millimeter equivalent). At the 16:9 aspect ratio, its zoom range is an equally impressive 42.2 to 844 millimeters (35 millimeter equivalent).

How many times zoom is 600mm?

As an example, if you use a 2x teleconverter on a 300mm f/4 lens, the lens effectively becomes a 600mm f/8 lens. When compared to optics, the lens goes from 6x to 12x magnification, a nice gain, but less light will reach the sensor or film due to the smaller effective aperture.

How far can a 30x optical zoom See?

However, a rough rule of thumb is that with a 4x zoom ratio you can ID someone 100 feet away. Following on from that, for identifying someone at 200 feet, you’ll need a 20x zoom ratio, and a 30x zoom ratio for 250ft.

How far is a 300mm lens zoom?

The bottom line – on a crop frame camera a 70-300mm zoom (Canon, Nikon, Sony) will get you pretty good coverage from 15 yards to 56 yards away, the ‘sweet spot’ for outdoor sports.

What is 10x optical zoom equivalent to?

10x is the optical zoom, roughly equivalent to a 20-200mm lens on an SLR camera. It’s pretty good. The 4x Zoom means that beyond the 10x optical zoom, the camera will electronically jack it up another 4 times. However, it does so by blowing up the pixels and it can make the photos grainy.

What does 42x optical zoom mean?

If a 42x optical zoom lens has a wide-angle setting of 25mm, then its maximum telephoto setting would be 1050mm (25 multiplied by 42). It’s important to pay attention to the optical zoom measurement as well as the maximum telephoto setting.

What does 60x zoom mean?

Let’s look at the most interesting camera first, which is the P600 superzoom. Pushing the zoom limit to 60x optical means that birdwatchers and some long-distance sports photographers will be happy. The lens itself is reasonably wide at 24mm and extends to 1440mm (35mm equivalent).

What magnification is a 500mm lens? For example, a 10x binoculars magnification is equivalent to a 500mm super-telephoto lens.
