A quick lens questions

I hope that the following makes sense. What lense would you require to make an image of exactly the same scale of magnification as that ...

I hope that the following makes sense.

What lense would you require to make an image of exactly the same scale of magnification as that seen by the human eye?

It's generally considered to be about 50mm on 35mm film/full-frame dSLR, hence known as a 'standard' lens.

So that works out as around 30mm on a 1.6 crop camera for example.

Although apparently 43mm (on full frame) is actually more accurate.

Thanks for that.

I was looking at the view from our kitchen this morning, as shown below, and it occurred to me that I didn't have a true image of the view. I may have to go and have a play.
