iPhone App Simplifies Lens Field-of-View Calculations

Resolve Optics has developed an easy-to-use iPhone application (App) that simplifies lens field of view (FOV) calculations. Perfect for optics professionals and camera enthusiasts alike, all you need to know is the sensor format, its focal length and the App does the rest.

Available in two versions - the FOV Calc App allows you to quickly work out what focal length lens you require or to calculate the field-of-view provided by a lens of a given focal length at a known distance or infinity. FOV Calc Lite is a free version of the App with 8 commonly used sensor formats pre-installed. The full version of the App - FOV Calc has the 8 preinstalled formats but also provides the option of editing, adding, deleting and saving sensor formats, enabling you to build your own sensor format database.

Both versions of the Resolve Optics field-of-view calculator are now available to download from the Apple iTunes Store.
