Angles of View
Since the sizes of 35mm film format are different from
the image sensor of a digital camera, the scope of the
image captured is different even when focal lengths
are the same (i.e., angles of view differ).
The 18-200mm Di II is designed to capture optium
scope when used with a general digital SLR, espe-
cially at its wide angle side.
(designed for exclusive use on digital SLR cameras
with smaller-size imagers)
