Explanation

Super 16 12.5mm uses crop factor 2.88 and sensor width 12.5 mm. focal_mm = 12.5 / (2 x tan(HFOV/2)). For input 1 deg, output is 716.179063308 mm.

Method & Sensor Profile

  • Sensor basis: Super 16 12.5mm profile with crop factor 2.88 and sensor width 12.5 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.

Questions & answers

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 Super 16 12.5mm, crop factor 2.88, sensor width 12.5 mm.

How do I reverse deg to mm for Super 16 12.5mm?

Use the opposite-direction page for Super 16 12.5mm 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.
