There appears to be general agreement that the 50mm focal length ( on a FF body ), is the closest to "normal" or, what the eye sees.
Is there any mathematics or science behind this or what ?
The reason I ask is that I don't understand it. It may be because I'm not experienced in using that focal length primarily ( which would be ~35mm on my DX camera ), but it seems to me that my FOV is much wider than that focal length of a lense provides me.
Thanks,
floyd
