Sorry but I find that hard to believe. AFAIK it's just not possible

YOu must write to Zeiss and tell them, immediately.


I find it annoying that we continue to refer to 35mm equivilant when
describing focal length. Many users will have never owned a 35mm camera in
the past. I think we should use "Angle of view" as a universal description.

+1 - Agree. The use of focal length at all has plagued real cameras for
non-specialists. Fine as a secondary part of the description, but angle
has got to be the best. I do have a mental idea of 35mm focal lengths -
but as soon as the format changes, I am thrown and have to think
everything through - slowly!
