Hello, the product page for the new 5K Super says that we should have these settings available:
Refresh Rate
FOV(D)
180 Hz
150°
160 Hz
170°
144 Hz
185°
120 Hz
200°
90 Hz
200°
Now, I don’t know how those diagonal degrees of FOV translate to Wide, Normal, and Small because there are more bins in the product page table than there are the PiTool (4 vs 3 respectively).
However, the main issue is that “Wide” is only available on 90Hz mode and I would suspect that “Wide” would also be available on 120Hz given the product page table.
I was looking into the 5K Super as well but I am skeptical. On the 5K Plus when you are using 90Hz the measurements are as DrWilken stated above. When you move up to 120Hz (even though the menu in PE says the same sizes) the FOV is smaller. All FOV settings are smaller than what they are in 90Hz. For example Small in 90Hz looks like Normal in 120Hz, Normal in 90Hz looks like Large in 120Hz and so on.
Would it be assumed that this same trend is going to follow in the 5K Super, or will 90Hz, 120Hz, 144Hz etc. have the same sizing layout across the board, and the different Hertz modes will simply be restricted to a specific size.
The FOV values advertised by Pimax are calculated in Pimax Time-Space continuum, where days mean weeks, weeks mean years, the circle has 450° and the Euclidean geometry no longer holds.
Your better approach would be to go with non-quantified qualifiers like “Bigger, smaller, and quite alright” instead.
I would recommend downloading @risa2000’s hmdq program and do some tests. Risa would likely be interested in adding results to his hmdq database of headsets.
Risa also sent @Pumcy info on your program. He said it will be very useful.
