good evening,
I recently calibrated a camera to get the intrinsic and extrinsic parameters. my
main goal is to mimic the perspective camera in pov ray with that of the real
one. I was wondering if it's possible to define the focal length and principal
point of the perspective camera located in pov ray. I read through this
documentation <http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/246/> but it
doesn't seem to mention any about defining a focal length and principal point.
any tips?
thank you
regards 6digit

The length of the direction vector determine the distance between the
camera and the projection plane. In a way, it can be seen as the focal
length of the camera.Then, the ratio between the up and right vectors
determine the aspect ratio of the image. Those three vectors should be
perpendicular to one another.
If you want to emulate focal blurring, then, you need to use the focal
blur feature. For that, you need to also define the aperture of the
emulated objective, the focal point and how many samples are to be used.
You will find the relevant information here :

Hope that it's useful to you.
Happy POVing.

just to add, I find Google searches prefixed with 'site' usually gets me good
results, so the below was the second "hit" when searching:
"site: news.povray.org focal length"

This has been done in the past by Edouard Poor in 2009. Go to:
