What would be the 35mm equivalent of the EX1 zoom?

[Ola Christoffersson]

I have started a process in my head that might lead to me buying a Letus. I am still early in the process and doing research. Two days ago I borrowed a friends HVX200 with Letus and that left me thinking a lot about what lenses to get.
I felt very crippled using only primes and not a zoom but that might be something you get used to. I don't know.

Anyway it got me thinking about how the EX1 zoom range translates into 35-mm lenses. I know the wideangle is something like 32 mm but what would the maximum tele on the EX1 equal on a 35 mm lens?

31.4mm to 439mm in 35mm lens equivalent, according to Sony literature.

Thanks Dave! That's impressive. I guess I won't be able to get those real spy-style close ups with a Letus unless I get some real impressive rods and a huge zoom lense.
