Scripting Access to Camera Sensor Size Needed for Accurate FOV

After Effects does not expose the camera’s Sensor Size (Film Size) to scripting.

The Problem:

• Accurate camera creation and pipelines require knowledge of both Zoom and Sensor Size to correctly calculate Angle of View and Focal Length.

• Without script access, it’s impossible to verify, automate, or replicate real-world camera setups in AE via scripting

Proposed solution:

• Expose Sensor Size (Film Size) as a read/write property in scripting.

• This would allow scripts to create cameras with the correct sensor size and accurately calculate Zoom, Angle of View, and Focal Length.
