If the camera-'angle' to rendered-image-resolution formula has ever been
mentioned I missed it.  All I know is that angle 67 is nearly the same as
'direction 1' (the old field of view keyword) for the perspective camera.  I
think so anyhow.
I don't have any idea what the equation would be to get other widths in pixels,
or height for that matter, to correlate with differing fields of view.  I might
have tried at one time to see if it was a linear change but seems to me it
wasn't, thoroughly anyhow.  I could be wrong, or it just wasn't perfect enough
to use for everything... some reason I don't have the "formula".

| First result of strip camera Povography.
| The lighting is to flat.
|
| But is there an easy way to set up the camera?
| To position the cat, I started with a cam_angle 40 and a normal aspect
| ratio for a 320x240 image.
| Then changed the aspect ratio up<0,1,0> right<0,005,0,0> and the image size
| +w2 +h400. Now by try and error find a new camera angle 0.15. Is there a
| logical way to approach this?
