  2. Angle of view (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_of_view_(photography)

    So a standard 50 mm lens for 35 mm photography acts like a 50 mm standard "film" lens even on a professional digital SLR, but would act closer to a 75 mm (1.5×50 mm Nikon) or 80 mm lens (1.6×50mm Canon) on many mid-market DSLRs, and the 40-degree angle of view of a standard 50 mm lens on a film camera is equivalent to a 28–35 mm lens on ...

  3. Visual angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_angle

    Visual angle is the angle a viewed object subtends at the eye, usually stated in degrees of arc . It also is called the object's angular size . The diagram on the right shows an observer's eye looking at a frontal extent (the vertical arrow) that has a linear size , located in the distance from point . For present purposes, point can represent ...

    The result, θ = 4.56/D, with D in inches and θ in arcseconds, is slightly narrower than calculated with the Rayleigh criterion. A calculation using Airy discs as point spread function shows that at Dawes' limit there is a 5% dip between the two maxima, whereas at Rayleigh's criterion there is a 26.3% dip. [3]

  5. Isometric projection - Wikipedia

    Next, the cube is rotated ±45° about the vertical axis, followed by a rotation of approximately 35.264° (precisely arcsin 1 ⁄ √ 3 or arctan 1 ⁄ √ 2, which is related to the Magic angle) about the horizontal axis. Note that with the cube (see image) the perimeter of the resulting 2D drawing is a perfect regular hexagon: all the black ...

  6. Image sensor format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_sensor_format

    In digital photography, the image sensor format is the shape and size of the image sensor . The image sensor format of a digital camera determines the angle of view of a particular lens when used with a particular sensor. Because the image sensors in many digital cameras are smaller than the 24 mm × 36 mm image area of full-frame 35 mm cameras ...

  7. Hexagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagon

    There are 16 subgroups. There are 8 up to isomorphism: itself (D 6), 2 dihedral: (D 3, D 2), 4 cyclic: (Z 6, Z 3, Z 2, Z 1) and the trivial (e) These symmetries express nine distinct symmetries of a regular hexagon. John Conway labels these by a letter and group order. [4] r12 is full symmetry, and a1 is no symmetry.

  8. Degree (angle) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_(angle)

    50· π. 10. A degree (in full, a degree of arc, arc degree, or arcdegree ), usually denoted by ° (the degree symbol ), is a measurement of a plane angle in which one full rotation is 360 degrees. [ 4] It is not an SI unit —the SI unit of angular measure is the radian —but it is mentioned in the SI brochure as an accepted unit. [ 5]

  9. Polarizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizer

    A modern type of absorptive polarizer is made of elongated silver nano-particles embedded in thin (≤0.5 mm) glass plates. These polarizers are more durable, and can polarize light much better than plastic Polaroid film, achieving polarization ratios as high as 100,000:1 and absorption of correctly polarized light as low as 1.5%.
