    Using some archived video, I went to determine the feild of view, I get with a minolta camera
    lens.
    
    Here's the field of view details, when using that minolta camera lens shown at

    Width in arc minutes = 312  
    
    312 / 60 arc minutes per degree =  5.2 degrees
    
    Height in arc minutes = 235
    
    235 / 60 arc minutes per degree =  3.9 degrees
