So for example my GPU corrector is 55mm back focus. The Camera has a back focus with the mount I have of 50.17mm. If I subtract 1mm from 50.17 I end up with 49.17 and that subtracted away from the 55mm back focus is 5.83. This corresponds really well with the actual imaging for curvature.
Hope that helps.

Perfectly explained. I knew it had something to do with the way of looking at it.

Indeed.
Thanks everyone. Case closed.
