35 mm equivalent focal length. The resulting images from 50 mm and 70 mm lenses for different sensor sizes; 36x24 mm (red) and 24x18 mm (blue) In photography, the 35 mm equivalent focal length is a measure of the angle of view for a particular combination of a camera lens and film or image sensor size. The term is popular because in the early ...
The camera manufacturers provide a crop factor (sometimes called a field-of-view factor or a focal-length multiplier) to show how much smaller the sensor is than a full 35 mm film frame. For example, one common factor is 1.5 (Nikon DX format and some others), although many cameras have crop factors of 1.6 (most Canon DSLRs), 1.7 (the early ...
Corfield Periflex. Corfield Periflex 1. The Periflex 35mm camera range was launched by K. G. Corfield Ltd, England in May 1953 with the "Periflex 1" . Subsequent models used the same general form and layout with improvements to the viewfinder design and surface finishes. The camera resembles the Leica Standard and qualify as a Leica copy.
A 50 mm lens on an APS-C format (crop factor 1.6) images a slightly smaller field of view than a 70 mm lens on a 35 mm camera. The terms crop factor and focal length multiplier were coined to help 35 mm film format SLR photographers understand how their existing ranges of lenses would perform on newly introduced DSLR cameras which had sensors smaller than the 35 mm film format, but often ...
A camera's angle of view can be measured horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. In photography, angle of view ( AOV) [1] describes the angular extent of a given scene that is imaged by a camera. It is used interchangeably with the more general term field of view . It is important to distinguish the angle of view from the angle of coverage ...
The 18–55mm USM lens. The Canon EF-S 18–55mm lens f/3.5–5.6 is a Canon -produced wide-angle to mid telephoto zoom lens for digital single-lens reflex cameras with an EF-S lens mount. The field of view has a 35 mm equivalent focal length of 28.8–88mm, and it is a standard kit lens on Canon's consumer APS-C DSLRs.
The mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera is increasingly challenging the mid-price range market. But the SLR remains the camera design of choice for most professional and ambitious amateur photographers. Cross-section view of a typical 35mm SLR camera: 1 – Front-mount Lens 2 – Reflex mirror 3 – Focal plane shutter
APS-C. Drawing showing the relative sizes of sensors used in most current digital cameras. Advanced Photo System type-C ( APS-C) is an image sensor format approximately equivalent in size to the Advanced Photo System film negative in its C ("Classic") format, of 25.1×16.7 mm, an aspect ratio of 3:2 and Ø 30.15 mm field diameter.
