let me guess, you are trying to render an animated camera X% oversized?
i ran into the same thing recently and almost lost my mind at 3 in the
morning.
i think my email to the list was censored (probably for the best)
it seens the proj plane is only calculated when the camera properties is
open?
after trying a list of simple options as long as my arm i ended up
writing a scop that did all the trig and set the values.
which was frustrating considering the value i wanted was laughing at me
onscreen but unattainable.

Thanks Matt, that did the trick. Any idea why when I have an
expression on the Projection Plane distance(linking it to another
camera), that the FOV value doesn't change when I access it's value in
scripting?

try this instead:
LogMessage( oCamera.Name );
LogMessage( oCamera.Parameters( "projplane" ).value );

I'm having trouble with the second line I've pasted below. The
first line properly returns the name of the camera in the
newCam variable. I can't figure out why it doesn't work in the
second line even though I've tested it in another script.
logmessage(newCam.name);
logmessage(newCam.camera.projplane.value);
What I'm trying to do is check whether the Projection Plane is
turned on for this camera.
Thanks.
