(HF S21) Good old "film back" drama
 

Hey guys,

I'm going through the same drama I did some while ago (with a sony last time)
... trying to work out the perfectly accurate film back for my new HF S21

I understand the relationship between the given sensor size and the true dimensions
as covered here: http://www.dvinfo.net/forum/canon-vi...al-length.html

But how do u work this out...
1 / 2.6" is a circle with a 4:3 sensor inside it... how big is the padding between the edge of the circle and the sensor itself?

here's an example of some other sensor sized worked out...

I hope I have explained my issue properly...

Thanks in advanced :)
