1 Focal length (mm) =
141.703725 Horizontal angle of view (degrees)

Explanation

Compact 1/2.5" class uses crop factor 6.8 and sensor width 5.76 mm. HFOV = 2 x atan(5.76 / (2 x focal_mm)) in degrees. For input 1 mm, output is 141.703725084 deg.

From Focal length to Horizontal angle of view, results depend on the selected sensor profile and stay consistent with that profile across table rows and calculator input.

Keep the same profile in both directions to avoid mixing lookup systems that use different size mappings.

Method & Reference (Verified)

  • Method basis: profile-bound mapping; constants depend on the selected profile encoded in the route.
  • Profile reference: sensor profile.
  • Consistency rule: keep the same profile in mirror direction to avoid mixing incompatible mappings.
