CCD Lens
Info & Calculator
Most
of viewing angle of a lens described by a vendor is a diagonal angle. But
it's a horizontal angle that can represent a true coverage of an area. If
you see a vendor selling a pinhole camera or a nanny camera at 90 degree
angle, it's most likely to be a false statement because widest pinhole
lens are 3.8mm (75 deg horizontal / 90 deg diagonal). But since 75 deg
angle can cover most of the room, it's often goes unnoticed. We do however
carry true 90 deg pinhole lenses L-2.9PSC at: http://www.spycameras.com/item8.htm

This calculator finds the
lens size (focal length/mm) and the appropriate field of view, based on data entered for
the CCD size, the distance from the camera to the target area, and the width of the target
area to be imaged. Enter the numeric value for the distance from the camera to the target
area and enter the numeric value for the width of the target area. All calculations take
place at each entry. You may however, click 'Calculate' to update if needed.
