Personally I use one unit = one centimeter, because the things I model are
easier to code with numbers of that scale. But whatever is best for you, the
important thing is to adjust the camera angle, so the result doesn't look
like a fish-eye (unless this is desired). My own trial-and-error made me
decide always to use "angle 48" in ordinary camera statements, as this seems
to fit my unit scale.

I also would advide you to write in all your scenes, that you want to share
with people, what scale you use, so we can adjust it to ours if necessary.
:o)
