Camera coverage: How do I determine the area covered by each photo in a manual shot? i.e. based upon distance from the object?

Hmmm....not sure what you're asking. It should be what you see in your screen as it's the same camera.

Not to hijack the thread but I wanted to share what was on my screen as I was reading Jerry's reply.

The published Field of View for the Spark is 82 degrees.

The necessary maths is 2*Tan(82/2) which says that the width of the field of view is 1.7 times the distance from the object.

Is that what they mean by "match and set"? ?

This tool by Pix4d estimates footprint and GSD, based on sensor width, focal length and flight height.
It´s intended for images taken from nadir angle, but I think it may help you.
