Hey Maxon,

This is not exactly a SDK bug but I don't now where to report it. I hope this reaches the right people somehow.

It has been bugging me a lot in the past, and it did so again today, so i thought ill report it:

Its about the parameter CAMERAOBJECT_APERTURE in the camera object. In the german version it is called "Bildgroesse" and in the english version "Aperture Width".

Judging from how the three parameters "Focal Length", "Aperture Width" and "Field of View" influence each other it seems the english translation is wrong and that "Sensor Width" would be correct.

It would be nice to see that one fixed in R12 (or maybe the next 11.5 update ). It has been around forever now and it gets me every time.

Regards,
Yves
