To calculate the angle of view:
\[ AOV = 2 \arctan \left( \frac{d}{2f} \right) \]
An angle of view, or AOV for short, is defined as the angular extent of a scene that can be captured by a camera. It is an important parameter in photography and videography, as it determines how much of the scene will be visible in the frame.
Let's assume the following values:
Step 1: Divide the dimension by 2 times the focal length:
\[ \frac{d}{2f} = \frac{36}{2 \times 50} = 0.36 \]
Step 2: Take the inverse tangent of this result and multiply by 2:
\[ AOV = 2 \arctan(0.36) = 39.60 \text{ degrees} \]
Let's assume the following values:
Step 1: Divide the dimension by 2 times the focal length:
\[ \frac{d}{2f} = \frac{24}{2 \times 35} = 0.343 \]
Step 2: Take the inverse tangent of this result and multiply by 2:
\[ AOV = 2 \arctan(0.343) = 37.86 \text{ degrees} \]
