  2. Field of view - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_of_view

    Angular field of view is typically specified in degrees, while linear field of view is a ratio of lengths. For example, binoculars with a 5.8 degree (angular) field of view might be advertised as having a (linear) field of view of 102 mm per meter. As long as the FOV is less than about 10 degrees or so, the following approximation formulas ...

  3. 35 mm equivalent focal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/35_mm_equivalent_focal_length

    35 mm equivalent focal length. The resulting images from 50 mm and 70 mm lenses for different sensor sizes; 36x24 mm (red) and 24x18 mm (blue) In photography, the 35 mm equivalent focal length is a measure of the angle of view for a particular combination of a camera lens and film or image sensor size. The term is popular because in the early ...

  4. Angle of view (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_of_view_(photography)

    In 1916, Northey showed how to calculate the angle of view using ordinary carpenter's tools. The angle that he labels as the angle of view is the half-angle or "the angle that a straight line would take from the extreme outside of the field of view to the center of the lens;" he notes that manufacturers of lenses use twice this angle.

  5. Focal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focal_length

    Focal length (f) and field of view (FOV) of a lens are inversely proportional. For a standard rectilinear lens, FOV = 2 arctan x / 2f, where x is the width of the film. When a photographic lens is set to "infinity", its rear principal plane is separated from the sensor or film, which is then situated at the focal plane, by the lens's focal ...

  6. Depth of field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_of_field

    Minox LX camera with hyperfocal red dot Nikon 28mm f /2.8 lens with markings for the depth of field. The lens is set at the hyperfocal distance for f /22. The orange mark corresponding to f /22 is at the infinity mark (∞). Focus is acceptable from under 0.7 m to infinity. Minolta 100-300 zoom lens. The depth of field, and thus hyperfocal ...

  7. Image sensor format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_sensor_format

    In digital photography, the image sensor format is the shape and size of the image sensor . The image sensor format of a digital camera determines the angle of view of a particular lens when used with a particular sensor. Because the image sensors in many digital cameras are smaller than the 24 mm × 36 mm image area of full-frame 35 mm cameras ...

  8. Crop factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crop_factor

    Introduction A 50 mm lens on an APS-C format (crop factor 1.6) images a slightly smaller field of view than a 70 mm lens on a 35 mm camera. The terms crop factor and focal length multiplier were coined to help 35 mm film format SLR photographers understand how their existing ranges of lenses would perform on newly introduced DSLR cameras which had sensors smaller than the 35 mm film format ...

  9. Humphrey visual field analyser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humphrey_Visual_Field_Analyser

    Humphrey field analyser ( HFA) is a tool for measuring the human visual field that is commonly used by optometrists, orthoptists and ophthalmologists, particularly for detecting monocular visual field. [1] The results of the analyser identify the type of vision defect. Therefore, it provides information regarding the location of any disease ...
