I'll have to take some photos out of my window when there are some interesting clouds, just to show you what I mean. I know, a picture is worth a thousand words and all that.
The human eye is 50 mm. And Poser's focal length is wrong by a factor of 1.4. To accomplish a human eye type of field of view, you want 50 / 1.4 = 35 HAHAHAH.
Just stumbled across this. Where does the sqrt(2) come into it? I.e., what is the source of the error?
