I'm not sure I understand your question. If I do, the conversion from focal length of a digital camera to an equivalent 35mm focal length varies based on the cameras sensor size. These sizes vary by camera model.

For most Digital SLRs you multiply the camera's focal length by about 1.6, but the multiplier ranges from 1.5 to 2.

The multiplier for simple/consumer non-DSLR cameras is somewhere around 4 times.
