Focal length (mm) to Horizontal angle of view (degrees) for Super 16 12.5mm
1 Focal length (mm) = 161.819446 Horizontal angle of view (degrees) ยท camera-equivalence calculation for Super 16 12.5mm
Direct Answer
On Super 16 12.5mm, a 50 mm lens gives about 14.250033 horizontal angle of view
This result uses the fixed Super 16 12.5mm sensor profile (crop factor 2.88).
For 14 Focal length (mm), this gives 48.114699 Horizontal angle of view (degrees) on Super 16 12.5mm.

SwitchExplanation
Formula: HFOV = 2 x atan(12.5 / (2 x focal_mm)) in degrees. Why: this page keeps Super 16 12.5mm fixed, so crop factor and sensor width stay explicit for every calculation.
Super 16 12.5mm: a sensor profile with crop factor 2.88 and sensor width (horizontal) 12.5 mm, used as the fixed framing basis for this page.
Focal length (mm): a camera-equivalence quantity in this family that depends on the selected crop model.
Horizontal angle of view (degrees): a camera-equivalence quantity in this family that depends on the selected crop model.
This route is useful when you know the focal length on Super 16 12.5mm and want the resulting horizontal framing angle.
This page is sensor-profile dependent rather than universal because camera equivalence changes with sensor geometry (Super 16 12.5mm).

Frequently Asked Questions
Which sensor assumptions are fixed for focal length mm to horizontal angle of view (degrees)?
Focal length mm to horizontal angle of view (degrees) is fixed to Super 16 12.5mm, crop factor 2.88, sensor width 12.5 mm.
How do I reverse mm to deg for Super 16 12.5mm?
Use the opposite-direction page for Super 16 12.5mm to convert horizontal angle of view (degrees) back to focal length (mm) with the same sensor assumptions.
Can focal length mm to horizontal angle of view (degrees) replace full lens-design simulation?
No. Focal length mm to horizontal angle of view (degrees) provides framing and geometry approximations, not full optical-model behavior.
