[edit] Field of View stuff on Eyepiece page
Hi Flehmen. I realise you didn't write the Calculating actual field of view section on the Eyepiece page (it was added by an anonymous user in May), but I was wondering if I could ask you about what it says, since you seem to know a bit about optics. I'm quite confused by it, because I've always thought the main way to calculate Actual FOV was to simply take the Apparent FOV, and divide by the magnification once the eyepiece is plugged into a telescope (or other device), such as described here. Is the formula in the article an alternative way to calculate the Actual FOV, for when the Apparent FOV is unavailable? Or is it something completely different? Do you think it'd be out of place to also explain the other way of calculating actual field of view? Anyway, I just thought I'd ask you since you seem to be more familiar with the optical stuff than I am. Thanks. Izogi 08:11, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
