Hi Tina, it is a 21mm lens that does a digital crop down to 50mm
equivalent.  But starting at 50mp you will be about 21mp equivalent, not so
far from your native 24 on your SL.  The trick is to use one frame wider so
you can previsualize ala an M and crop to what you visualized in the
viewfinder.  High pixel count sensors give a huge amount of freedom to see
an image within the image without much constraint.

All the best.
