Field Of View + Coverage Questions

[PThomas]

Can anybody point me to a diagram showing Field Of View and coverage for any given lens? (in mm) How this relates with resolution would also be useful.

Trying to look for camera to cover front drive to start with .

Hi this is quite an old view guide (as attached,) it was produced about 8 years ago.

I will give Dave some images so he can reproduce this online.

hi all,

when your out talking to the client it's always a bit difficult to get over to them exactly what they will see, relationship to lens and view which is always a compromise to what they thought they will see.

a simple method i use so we are both on the same song sheet is my camera phone, take a snap and show them as a rough guide, most are about the same as a 3.6mm lens and it avoids the 'i thought i'd see faces on a 2.6 very wide angle cover the whole garden lens.

There will be a webpage up soon detailing the Fields of view for given lens. I'll post a link here when it's up and running. Hopefully it'll only be a few days, just awaiting some example photo's.

Hi S.E.

I don't know if this would be of any use to you, but I've got a basic chart on site here:- http://www.doktorjon.co.uk/Technical-lenses/lenstech14.html

and again a basic focal length guide (with magnification figures) here:- http://www.doktorjon.co.uk/Technical-lenses/lenstech13.html

I've also been meaning to take photo's (for about three years now) but still haven't got around to it

So much to do, so little time
