Both calculators run independently — change the inputs on either side to compare results.

Depth of Field Calculator

Determine the depth of field, hyperfocal distance, and near/far focus limits for any lens and camera combination. Ideal for photographers choosing aperture and focus distance to keep subjects sharp.

Critical Angle Calculator

Calculate the critical angle beyond which light undergoes total internal reflection at the boundary between a denser and a rarer medium. Essential for fiber optics, prism design, and understanding optical phenomena.
