# Photography Crop Factor Calculator

> Photography Crop Factor Calculator is a paid API for AI agents from photo-calc.x402tookit.com, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-11-01).

Calculates the crop factor of a camera sensor and returns full-frame equivalent focal length, aperture, and ISO for a given lens, supporting named sensor types or custom dimensions.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability photography-crop-factor-calculator-ac05a331
```

Example prompt: What's the full-frame equivalent of a 35mm f/1.8 lens shot at ISO 800 on an APS-C sensor? Give me the crop factor and the equivalent focal length, aperture, and ISO.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to convert lens parameters (focal length, aperture, ISO) between a crop sensor and a full-frame equivalent, or when you need the crop factor and physical dimensions for a named or custom sensor. Prefer this over manual calculation or generic reference tables when you need programmatic, per-request results with custom sensor dimensions.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid sensor type returns an error or null values
- Providing widthMm without heightMm (or vice versa) may result in incomplete custom sensor calculation
- Out-of-range numeric inputs (e.g. negative focal length or ISO) may return null equivalents
- Unknown sensor string constant returns an error or defaults to APS-C

## How this service works

Crop factor of a sensor, with the full-frame equivalent focal length, aperture and ISO for a lens, or a custom sensor size.

## Output

Returns the crop factor for the specified sensor, the sensor's physical dimensions and diagonal in mm, the sensor area as a percentage of full-frame, and (if provided) the full-frame equivalent focal length, aperture, and ISO for the given lens settings.
