I'm working through some videos on Youtube and have decided to replicate what they are doing. Problem is, they are all using full-frame cameras and I have a Nikon DX (1.5 cf).

If we look at the 50mm portrait exercises, I have a magnification factor of 1.5x.

Am I correct in my thoughts that using a 35mm (Giving me a 50mm FOV equivalent) will not give the same result as the 50mm on a full frame owing to the different lens design?

Should I simply move 30% further away?

thanks.
