I have put the old lens specs on this page into Excel format, and am doing the calculations for the values listed in the new lens Excel sheet, but not in the old lens specs.
To do many of those, I need the diagonal of the 4x5 format. I calculate it as being 163: 25.4 x sqrt(4^2 + 5^2). However, the Excel spreadsheet for new lenses says the diagonal is 153. That seems incorrect to me...unless the dimensions of the 4x5 format aren't actually 4 in x 5 in, but slightly smaller. Is this the case?
