Not a professional by any measure. I did know these things as my class is pretty basic and I do teach them to shoot Manual and in RAW. I realized I didn't know what he was talking about, an was wondering if it was something I was not familiar with.

That said, there are ways to calculate how the Aperture and shutter speed interact with the focal point, so I thought that was what he was talking about. Since I am not a pro, I never learned how to do the calculations.

I pretty much decide the kind of DOF I want, (Or the effect from shutter speed, look at the metering system in the camera and adjust either the aperture or shutter speed to get the proper exposure.

(I also figured he was talking about the focal point when he was using MM.)

What is FOV, Deeprig? I admit I have never heard of it and again figured you fat fingered DOF. I am guessing it applies more to video, too.
