Focal length to FOV

[rv1974]

Hi!
Does anybody have a glue how would I convert focal length to SU FOV?
I have some background picture taken with Canon EOS 5D Mark II focal length 24 mm.
So my FOV=???
BTW is focal angle (the term in camera point of view\target.rb that I use) mean same that su field of view does?
Thank you in advance

With the Zoom tool, type 24mm in the VCB.

Works the other way as well: 55deg

You could paste this in to the Ruby Console.

Sketchup.active_model.active_view.camera.focal_length = 4

I don't know the formula, but I think they are inversely proportional.

Thom and Jim thank you.
