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 diagonal of the film.
How do you find FOV?
Field of View = Field Number (FN) ÷ Objective Magnification
For objects that require higher magnifications, convert your measurements from millimeters to micrometers.
What is the FOV of a 50mm lens?
The FOV for a 50mm lens would be 39.6 degrees horizontally and 27.0 degrees vertically. Diagonally, the FOV is 46.8 degrees.
