It does, but at the same time it makes sense where the average consumer is concerned. I mean, try explaining that a camera has a 7.9mm - 23.7mm lens and how that is the equivalent to a 35mm camera's 38mm - 114mm lens, to a parent that knows absolutely nothing about photography -doesn't care to either- and just wants to take hoards of snap shots. It's just much easier to get people to buy a 3x/5x/20x/30,000x zoom camera, because after all, a larger number
must be better.
