Subject: [Nuke-users] Arri Alexa sensor size - camera tracking question
Date: Tue, May 29, 2012 01:01
Thanks for the reply Alex, I'll have a look. We have someone here saying that 
the 18mm lens would not be an 18mm lens in our tracker settings, I just want to 
make sure what they are saying is right.
Cheers.D.

sensor measurements you input.Your 18mm lens is still 18mm, no conversion is 
necessary, your field of view has changed, but not your focal length..
An 18mm lens has a different field of view if its mounted on micro4/3, DX, 
super35, 35 stills, 70mm or medium format, but it remains an 18mm lens.


Have a play with Nuke's camera node, tweaking the focal length, haperture & 
vaperture knobs to get a feel for the relationship they have to each other.

Hi, we have some plates shot with the alexa on a 18mm prime lens.I Need to 
camera track this material.
On the Arri website, it says the sensor size for the alexa is 23.76 x 13.37mm 
when using the ARRIRAW setting with 1.78:1 aspect ratio.

in the camera tracker settings, would I put the film back size as 23.76 x 
13.37mm?And then I guess i need to find out the crop factor for that sensor 
size and use that when entering the focal length of the lens?

So if we shot on a 18mm lens, and theoretically the crop factor was 1.5 (not 
sure what the actual crop factor is yet), you would times 18 x1.5? and that 
would give the right focal length?

Can someone point me in the right direction with this? and is my theory of this 
right? or am i missing something?
Thanks.
Darren.
