  2. Camera lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_lens

    The lenses attach to the camera using a lens mount, which contains mechanical linkages and often also electrical contacts between the lens and camera body. The lens mount design is an important issue for compatibility between cameras and lenses. There is no universal standard for lens mounts, and each major camera maker typically uses its own ...

  3. Science of photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_of_photography

    Science of photography. The science of photography is the use of chemistry and physics in all aspects of photography. This applies to the camera, its lenses, physical operation of the camera, electronic camera internals, and the process of developing film in order to take and develop pictures properly. [1]

  4. Zoom lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoom_lens

    A zoom lens is a system of camera lens elements for which the focal length (and thus angle of view) can be varied, as opposed to a fixed-focal-length (FFL) lens ( prime lens ). A true zoom lens or optical zoom lens is a type of parfocal lens, one that maintains focus when its focal length changes. [1] Most consumer zoom lenses do not maintain ...

  5. C mount - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_mount

    C-mount lenses provide a male thread, which mates with a female thread on the camera. The thread is nominally 1 inch (25.4 mm) in diameter, with 32 threads per inch (0.794 mm pitch ), designated as "1-32 UN 2A" in the ANSI B1.1 standard for unified screw threads. The flange focal distance is 17.526 millimetres (0.6900 in) for a C mount.

  6. History of photographic lens design - Wikipedia

    The catadioptric camera lens' heyday was the 1960s and 1970s, before apochromatic refractive telephoto lenses. [citation needed] CATs of 500 mm focal length were common; some were as short as 250mm, such as the Minolta RF Rokkor-X 250mm f/5.6 (Japan) of 1979 (a Mangin mirror CAT roughly the size of a 50mm f/1.4 lens). [153]

  7. 35 mm equivalent focal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/35_mm_equivalent_focal_length

    35 mm equivalent focal length. The resulting images from 50 mm and 70 mm lenses for different sensor sizes; 36x24 mm (red) and 24x18 mm (blue) In photography, the 35 mm equivalent focal length is a measure of the angle of view for a particular combination of a camera lens and film or image sensor size. The term is popular because in the early ...

  8. Normal lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_lens

    210 mm. large format 8 × 10 sheet film. 194 × 245 mm (image area) 312.5 mm. 300 mm. For a 35 mm camera with a diagonal of 43 mm, the most commonly used normal lens is 50 mm, but focal lengths between about 40 and 58 mm are also considered normal. The 50 mm focal length was chosen by Oskar Barnack, the creator of the Leica camera.

  9. Lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens

    Using a positive lens of focal length f, a virtual image results when S 1 < f, the lens thus being used as a magnifying glass (rather than if S 1 ≫ f as for a camera). Using a negative lens (f < 0) with a real object (S 1 > 0) can only produce a virtual image (S 2 < 0), according to the above formula. It is also possible for the object ...
