Focal length equivalents & field of view#
Multiply any focal length by 1.59 to get the full-frame field of view. Angles are for a rectilinear lens focused at infinity.

Equivalent aperture#
Exposure is identical at the same f-number on any format; equivalence only describes depth of field and total light.
Diffraction & pixel pitch#
With 13.08 µm pixels, diffraction starts to soften pixel-level detail around f/19.5. For maximum sharpness keep landscapes between f/10.7 and f/19; stopping down further trades detail for depth of field.
| Aperture | Airy disk diameter | Spread over | At 100% view |
|---|---|---|---|
| f/2.8 | 3.8 µm | 0.3 px | sharp |
| f/4 | 5.4 µm | 0.4 px | sharp |
| f/5.6 | 7.5 µm | 0.6 px | sharp |
| f/8 | 10.7 µm | 0.8 px | sharp |
| f/11 | 14.8 µm | 1.1 px | sharp |
| f/16 | 21.5 µm | 1.6 px | sharp |
| f/22 | 29.5 µm | 2.3 px | slight softening |
Maximum print sizes#
At 2 MP the Canon EOS D2000 produces 1,728 × 1,152 pixel images. See the 2 megapixel guide or the print size calculator.
| Resolution | Typical use | Inches | Centimetres |
|---|---|---|---|
| 300 DPI | Photo-lab quality | 5.8 × 3.8 in | 15 × 10 cm |
| 240 DPI | Fine-art inkjet | 7.2 × 4.8 in | 18 × 12 cm |
| 200 DPI | Wall print | 8.6 × 5.8 in | 22 × 15 cm |
| 150 DPI | Poster, viewed from 1 m+ | 11.5 × 7.7 in | 29 × 20 cm |
Night-sky exposure limits#
Longest exposure before stars trail. The NPF rule accounts for pixel pitch and is stricter than the classic 500 rule — use it for pin-sharp stars on high-resolution sensors.
| Focal length | 500 rule | NPF f/1.8 | NPF f/2.8 | NPF f/4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9 mm (14 mm eq.) | 34.9 s | 50.6 s | 54.5 s | 59.2 s |
| 13 mm (21 mm eq.) | 24.1 s | 35.0 s | 37.7 s | 41.0 s |
| 15 mm (24 mm eq.) | 20.9 s | 30.4 s | 32.7 s | 35.5 s |
| 22 mm (35 mm eq.) | 14.3 s | 20.7 s | 22.3 s | 24.2 s |
| 31 mm (49 mm eq.) | 10.1 s | 14.7 s | 15.8 s | 17.2 s |
Handheld shutter speed guide#
The reciprocal rule uses the equivalent focal length. High-resolution sensors may need one stop faster than this for pixel-sharp results.
| Focal length | No stabilisation (1/equiv. focal) | With 3-stop IS | With 5-stop IBIS |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15 mm | 1/25 s | 0.3 s | 1.3 s |
| 31 mm | 1/50 s | 1/6 s | 0.6 s |
| 63 mm | 1/100 s | 1/13 s | 0.3 s |
| 126 mm | 1/200 s | 1/25 s | 1/6 s |
