Physical Camera Perspective Shift and Real World PC-E Lens

[Dave Buckley]

Does anybody know what the correlation is between a real world pc-e lens is and the physical camera perspective shift?

 

My PC-E lens has a maximum shift of 11.5mm in both directions. Is there any way to figure out what the corresponding perspective shift percentage value would be on the max physical camera?

This is a though one, I think you may need to ask at Chaos group and see if Vlado setup those values as unit less or they are actual mm.

I know in Cinema 4D they are mm so the camera correction should match to a similar real lens. You need to consider also if your camera is full sensor of cropped.

best luck.

I'll be curious when you get a more in depth answer

I'll post the question over there too then. I'm using a D810 with 24mm PC-E so full frame. Going from Camera to Max shouldn't be an issue as the good old 'eyeball' will get you pretty close. But If I've set up previz to mimic a 24mm pc-e then I want to be able to go straight to site and match the previz shot straight away or at least be very close to it.
