Crop Factor Calculator
Calculate equivalent focal length and field of view from sensor crop factor. Enter values for instant results with step-by-step formulas.
Formula
Equivalent FL = Actual FL × Crop Factor | Equivalent Aperture = f-stop × Crop Factor
Crop factor converts between sensor sizes. Full-frame = 1.0×. APS-C = 1.5× (Nikon/Sony) or 1.6× (Canon). Micro 4/3 = 2.0×.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is crop rotation and why is it important?
Crop rotation means growing different plant families in each bed each year. It prevents soil-borne disease buildup, balances nutrient depletion, and breaks pest cycles. A simple 4-year rotation: legumes (add nitrogen), then leafy greens (use nitrogen), then fruiting crops, then root vegetables. Never follow a crop with the same family.
How do I get the most accurate result?
Enter values as precisely as possible using the correct units for each field. Check that you have selected the right unit (e.g. kilograms vs pounds, meters vs feet) before calculating. Rounding inputs early can reduce output precision.
