A great thread indeed. Shouldn't we make a organised webpage for it? I've put my links on a wiki. ( http://www.robvonk.com​/DigitalPhotography ). That way we can group and organize the links and have categories like: photoshop, hardware, software, tutorials etc..

We can use my page or setup a new one at Pekka's place.

Lens Calculator

Well, in case you've not seen it there is this lens calculator:

http://www.sweeting.or​g/mark/lenses/

It displays the angle of view and field of view for most lenses made for the Canon mount (E.g Canon EF lenses and Sigma lenses, as well as generic lenses).

You can select the sensor/body too, so that the angles are correct for the size of the sensor (35mm film, EOD 1DS, EOS 1D, EOS 10D etc.).

Cheers,

Mark
