Horizontal angle of view (degrees) to Focal length (mm) for 1-inch sensor 13.2mm

Snapshot

On 1-inch sensor 13.2mm, a 50 horizontal angle of view needs about a 14.153746 mm lens. Conversion Encyclopedia keeps the same sensor profile across the calculator, common values, and reverse page for this page.

  • Sensor profile: 1-inch sensor 13.2mm (13.2 mm width, crop factor 2.73).
  • Example: To reach 14 Horizontal angle of view (degrees), you need 53.752686 Focal length (mm) on 1-inch sensor 13.2mm.
  • Use the reverse page if you need the opposite direction with the same basis.

Explanation

Formula: focal_mm = 13.2 / (2 x tan(HFOV/2)). Why: this page keeps 1-inch sensor 13.2mm fixed, so crop factor and sensor width stay explicit for every calculation.

1-inch sensor 13.2mm: a sensor profile with crop factor 2.73 and sensor width (horizontal) 13.2 mm, used as the fixed framing basis for this page.

Horizontal angle of view (degrees): a camera-equivalence quantity in this family that depends on the selected crop model.

Focal length (mm): a camera-equivalence quantity in this family that depends on the selected crop model.

This route is useful when you know the target horizontal framing angle and need the focal length required on 1-inch sensor 13.2mm.

This page is sensor-profile dependent rather than universal because camera equivalence changes with sensor geometry (1-inch sensor 13.2mm).

Method & Sensor Profile

  • Sensor basis: 1-inch sensor 13.2mm profile with crop factor 2.73 and sensor width 13.2 mm.
  • Profile reference: focal-length and aperture equivalence use the same crop model, while angle-of-view routes use the same fixed sensor width geometry.
  • Consistency rule: forward and reverse pages keep the same sensor profile; only the formula direction changes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which sensor assumptions are fixed for horizontal angle of view (degrees) to focal length mm?

Horizontal angle of view (degrees) to focal length mm is fixed to 1-inch sensor 13.2mm, crop factor 2.73, sensor width 13.2 mm.

How do I reverse deg to mm for 1-inch sensor 13.2mm?

Use the opposite-direction page for 1-inch sensor 13.2mm to convert focal length (mm) back to horizontal angle of view (degrees) with the same sensor assumptions.

Can horizontal angle of view (degrees) to focal length mm replace full lens-design simulation?

No. Horizontal angle of view (degrees) to focal length mm provides framing and geometry approximations, not full optical-model behavior.
