Specify camera type (APS-C, MFT, Fullframe) to automatically convert focal length to equivalent units

Please add camera type presets to the camera options so that it becomes possible to specify the focal length in equivalence to a certain sensor type. For those who do not use a Fullframe camera, it is necessary to calculate the equivalent focal length, whereas it would be much easier to enter the focal length one is familiar with based on the physical camera sensor one uses. This would take away the calculations needed to translate MFT or APS-C to Fullframe focal lengths.

How does this proposal differ from the sensor size presets already available in the Camera pane?

That one is not in the n-panel.

Neither are the rest of the camera settings. Are you saying you want to be able to choose a sensor size as well as a focal length for the 3D view itself?

I want to specify the sensor size, so I can input the focal length that corresponds to my camera, basically.
