The formula holds for standard (entocentric) lenses and assumes the working distance is much larger than the focal length. It does not apply to telecentric lenses, and it accounts for neither depth of field nor distortion.

Filtered by the C-mount thread and by coverage — the image circle is at least 10.18 mm, this sensor's diagonal. A smaller circle darkens the corners of every frame. Ask us to confirm
