FOV Disclaimer: Field-of-view calculations use the standard 2×arctan(sensor/2f) formula applied to each camera's primary recording mode sensor dimensions. Zoom lens values shown at the midpoint focal length; select a specific prime or zoom position for precise results. Minimum safe distances are based on Nyquist sampling theory applied to 2.6mm pixel pitch vs. sensor pixel size — actual moire risk varies with content, aperture, and focus distance. Always conduct a camera test before production.
