Was made aware of this nifty page. Anything like it for Sony CCDs or Pentax?

F calc will let you do this for any lens and format, (well real APS H is 
as close as you'll get to a reduced format digital sensor), which pissed 
me off enough that I wrote one in VB which allowed for custom formats. I 
have no idea where the code got to. Probably lost during a move or upgrade.

Ack, just seen the Nikon calculator - I assume the Sony sensor is the
same in the Pentax?

I use Rui Salgueiro's field-of-view calculator available at this page:

   http://www.mat.uc.pt/~rps/photos/angles.html

He's got the basic film formats right there, and you can click  
"other" and input whatever sensor dimensions you want. DPReview.com  
usually lists sensor dimensions with camera specs.

I have a spreadsheet that shows angles of view for full-frame, 1.3, 1.5 
and 1.6 crops for a variety of focal lengths. What's more it contains 
the math that calculates the values, so it's pretty simple to expand it 
to cover any other formats you're interested in. Download it at 
http://www.robertstech.com/files/angle_of_view.xls

Someday I'll make a javascript version and put it on my web page with 
my depth of field calculator. But don't hold your breath.
