View Full Version : After Effects / 3D Camera duplicating HV30?

Hello!
I'm getting into storyboarding. I have a 3d software program called DAZ Studio which I can use to plan my shots but I've figured out that the built in camera has a different perspective to what the HV30 'sees' so the shots on screen look different to what I actually end up shooting.

I don't know if anyone on here has any experience with DAZ Studio, so if someone could help me with replicating the view from HV30 in After Effects, I can duplicate that in D|S.

It asks for:
Film size (mm)
Focal Length (mm)
Focus Distance (mm)
Angle of View (degrees)
Zoom (mm)
Aperture (mm)

I think I've got this right from the manual that the focal length on HV30 is f=6.1/61mm and from a conversion on another website the angle of view is 5 (max) 47 (min) but how do I transfer this data in A/FX so the limits are set within the capability of the camera itself?

Hope I've not confused anyone :)

Thanks,
Russ
