The Olympus C-5060 Wide Zoom sensor (highlighted) drawn to scale against common formats. Its area is 4% of a full-frame sensor, which collects about 4.6 stops less total light at the same exposure.

Focal length equivalents & field of view#

Multiply any focal length by 4.93 to get the full-frame field of view. For fixed-lens cameras use the real focal length printed on the lens (e.g. “6.1–18.3 mm”), not the 35 mm equivalent.

Equivalent aperture#

Exposure is identical at the same f-number on any format; equivalence only describes depth of field and total light.

Night-sky exposure limits#

Longest exposure before stars trail. The NPF rule accounts for pixel pitch and is stricter than the classic 500 rule — use it for pin-sharp stars on high-resolution sensors. (NPF needs a known resolution and is omitted here.)

Handheld shutter speed guide#

The reciprocal rule uses the equivalent focal length. High-resolution sensors may need one stop faster than this for pixel-sharp results.

Lens#

The Olympus C-5060 Wide Zoom has a built-in, non-interchangeable lens. Use the real focal length of that lens with the tables above; its full-frame equivalent is that number × 4.93.

Frequently asked questions#

What is the crop factor of the Olympus C-5060 Wide Zoom?

The Olympus C-5060 Wide Zoom has a crop factor of 4.93× relative to 35 mm full frame (diagonal 8.8 mm vs 43.3 mm).

What size is the Olympus C-5060 Wide Zoom sensor?

7.2 × 5.0 mm (1/1.7"), an area of 36 mm² — 4% of full frame.

Is the Olympus C-5060 Wide Zoom full frame?

No — its sensor is 1/1.7", which is 23.8× smaller in area than full frame.

How long can I expose the night sky with the Olympus C-5060 Wide Zoom?

With a 5 mm lens (25 mm equivalent) the 500 rule gives 20 s.
