Horizontal angle of view to lens focal length

Type a value in ° horizontal to get it in mm instantly.

57.09mm

That's 1.14× as long as a normal lens, while a portrait lens is 1.49× longer.

What it means

How wide does it see?

Angles are for a rectilinear lens focused at infinity on a 3:2 frame. Fisheye lenses and close focusing change them.

The math

How to convert ° horizontal to mm

Angle of view is 2 × arctan(d ÷ 2f), with d the frame’s width, height or diagonal (36, 24 or 43.3 mm for full frame) and f the 35 mm-equivalent focal length.

Example: 35 ° horizontal = 57.0887 mm.

Lens focal lengths below are for Full frame (crop 1). Change it above and they update.
