Calculating Angle of View
The size of the area exposed by a 35mm camera is 36 × 24 mm. The size of the area exposed by
the D5100, in contrast, is about 23.6 × 15.6 mm, meaning that the angle of view of a 35mm
camera is approximately 1.5 times that of the D5100. The approximate focal length of lenses for
the D5100 in 35mm format can be calculated by multiplying the focal length of the lens by
about 1.5.
