  2. Flipped image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flipped_image

    Many large format cameras present the image of the scene being photographed as a flipped image through their viewfinders. Some photographers regard this as a beneficial feature, as the unfamiliarity of the format allows them to compose the elements of the picture properly without being distracted by the actual contents of the scene.

  3. Negative (photography) - Wikipedia

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

    In a physical photograph the colour and luminance can only be inverted in tandem, but digital processing allows each to be inverted separately. If the hue of an image is rotated by 180 degrees, then the colour of the image is inverted but not its luminance. The negative of such an image has the luminance inverted but not the colour.

  4. Photograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photograph

    Non-digital photographs are produced with a two-step chemical process. In the two-step process, the light-sensitive film captures a negative image (colors and lights/darks are inverted). To produce a positive image, the negative is most commonly transferred ('printed') onto photographic paper. Printing the negative onto transparent film stock ...

    Light enters a dark box through a small hole and creates an inverted image on the wall opposite the hole. [2]The fundamental technology of most photography, whether digital or analog, is the camera obscura effect and its ability to transform of a three dimensional scene into a two dimensional image.

  6. Pinhole camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_camera

    Early pinhole camera. Light enters a dark box through a small hole and creates an inverted image on the wall opposite the hole. [8]The first known description of pinhole photography is found in the 1856 book The Stereoscope by Scottish inventor David Brewster, including the description of the idea as "a camera without lenses, and with only a pin-hole".

  7. Real image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_image

    Real images can be produced by concave mirrors and converging lenses, only if the object is placed further away from the mirror/lens than the focal point, and this real image is inverted. As the object approaches the focal point the image approaches infinity, and when the object passes the focal point the image becomes virtual and is not ...

  8. Photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photography

    It is a box with a small hole in one side, which allows specific light rays to enter, projecting an inverted image onto a viewing screen or paper. The birth of photography was then concerned with inventing means to capture and keep the image produced by the camera obscura.

  9. Thatcher effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thatcher_effect

    When these images are rotated, however, it becomes clear that the face on the right had its eyes and mouth inverted. The Thatcher effect or Thatcher illusion is a phenomenon where it becomes more difficult to detect local feature changes in an upside-down face, despite identical changes being obvious in an upright face.
