What to enter
| Input | Meaning and units |
|---|---|
| Reference-format diagonal (mm) | Enter reference-format diagonal in mm; use the same basis as the other measurements. |
| Sensor diagonal (mm) | Enter sensor diagonal in mm; use the same basis as the other measurements. |
Understanding your result
Read Crop factor (1) in the units and model stated on this page. The formula crop=reference/sensor defines the relationship; measurement accuracy and model applicability are separate from numerical precision.
Common mistakes
- Mixing input units or changing the physical meaning of a variable without changing the model.
Check your calculation
- Use the worked example as a known reference case, then change one input at a time and check the direction and units of the response.
