Fov vs focal length

Fov vs focal length

Hey, I'm converting a list of shots with optics and distances to fovs
and 3D coordinates to match camera angles.
So I found the script belov in the archives. This was shot on Super16
tho, so what do I need to do to make this script accurate?
I read somewhere that the Super16 film height is 6.86mm, is that it?

I'm also a little confused as to use vertical or horizontal FOV for the
camera in XSI..?
I'd appreciate if anyone could confirm or correct any of this info!

Thanks,
-a

' script to convert 35mm lens focal lengths
' to Softimage F.O.V. values

Option Explicit

Dim VertAngle, Height, FocalLength, Pi, XSI_FOV

Pi = 3.1415926535897932384626433832795
Height = 24
FocalLength = 50

VertAngle = 2 * Atn (Height/(2 * FocalLength))
XSI_FOV = Round(VertAngle * 180/Pi)
