To use this calculator, identify the column that contains the variable for which you are solving: farthest viewer, minimum image height, or maximum image resolution. Then, working up and down, fill in the white, unshaded cells in that column to find your answer.

Note:

  • Do NOT mix units. The calculations are unit consistent. (Do not mix feet and inches, millimeters and meters.)
  • The Viewing Ratio is calculated as the Farthest Viewer/Image Height.
