[MF3D.FORUM:510] viewer lenses vs. magnification?

     I have 78mm viewing lenses in my Saturn viewer.  How does this figure
relate to magnification?  If normal is about 45mm, then wouldn't this only
be about 2x magnification?   I seem to remember heraing 3 or 4x though?

      I plan to divide a circle of confusion of .3mm by this magnification
value to enter into my DOF tables.  I know this is how it works in 2D, I
would assume this is correct for 3d also, right?
