A Calculating Angle of View The camera can be used with Nikon lenses for 35 mm (135) format cameras. If a 35 mm format lens is attached, the angle of view will be the same as a frame of 35 mm film (35.9 × 23.9 mm). If desired, the Image area option in the photo shooting menu can be used to choose an angle of view different from that of the current lens. If a 35 mm format lens is attached, you can reduce the angle of view by 1.5× or 1.2× by selecting DX (24×16) or 1.2× (30×20) to expose a smaller area, or change the aspect ratio by selecting 5 : 4 (30×24). The sizes of the areas exposed by different Image area options are shown below.
