SwitchExplanation
Formula: HFOV = 2 x atan(17.3 / (2 x focal_mm)) in degrees. Why: this page keeps Micro Four Thirds 17.3mm fixed, so crop factor and sensor width stay explicit for every calculation.
Micro Four Thirds 17.3mm: a sensor profile with crop factor 2 and sensor width (horizontal) 17.3 mm, used as the fixed framing basis for this page.
Focal length (mm): a camera-equivalence quantity in this family that depends on the selected crop model.
Horizontal angle of view (degrees): a camera-equivalence quantity in this family that depends on the selected crop model.
This route is useful when you know the focal length on Micro Four Thirds 17.3mm and want the resulting horizontal framing angle.
This page is sensor-profile dependent rather than universal because camera equivalence changes with sensor geometry (Micro Four Thirds 17.3mm).

Frequently Asked Questions
Which sensor assumptions are fixed for focal length mm to horizontal angle of view (degrees)?
Focal length mm to horizontal angle of view (degrees) is fixed to Micro Four Thirds 17.3mm, crop factor 2, sensor width 17.3 mm.
How do I reverse mm to deg for Micro Four Thirds 17.3mm?
Use the opposite-direction page for Micro Four Thirds 17.3mm to convert horizontal angle of view (degrees) back to focal length (mm) with the same sensor assumptions.
Can focal length mm to horizontal angle of view (degrees) replace full lens-design simulation?
No. Focal length mm to horizontal angle of view (degrees) provides framing and geometry approximations, not full optical-model behavior.
