Ahh, guys, this DOF stuff :) If you take different sensor size cameras of the same brand (let's say a Nikon D700 vs. D90), and mount the exactly same lens to it, what happens? Only one thing.

The common misunderstooding (it works like a 1.5x longer lens) comes from this. Yes, an 50mm lens shows less on an APS-C camera, exactly the same field of view, what a 75mm lens does in full frame. But the lens is the same, no DOF, no f-stops, nothing else changes. (Maybe you get somewhat better results with some lenses because the sensor crops your edge effects like vignetting, CA or blurriness :D)
