the number 28 300 etc is a measure of the focal length

your digital has a focal lentgh too, usually printed near the lens
so if your digital is 28 mm a 10x would be 280 mm

A normal perspective for a 35 mm is 50mm of focal length

i dont thimk you can convert focal lentgh to apprant close ness
well maybe you can but i have no idea

WHy do you need to know this? Not being a wiseguy it sounds like you are trying to do somethig trickey
