A lot of pages says that an objective with a focal length of 50 mm comes close to Angle of view of human vision. 50mm on fullframe has an angle of view about 46 degress. My question: why is the FOV set by default then to 55? Is there something I miss? (Of course I know everyone can set this value by his own- It seems for me that the ac's looks more realistic with a fov between 36 and 46) Regards HHS __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
