angle = 2*arctan(R/F)


where F is focal length and R is radius on the film
R = 12mm vertical
    18mm horizontal
    21.5mm diagonal

diagonal 75deg for 28
47deg for 50
18deg for 135

for lenses longer than 50mm you can use 2400/F as a good approximation

Thanks Paul, and Robert G, for your replies. I shall file this little gem Paul.
