  2. Abbe number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbe_number

    Abbe number. In optics and lens design, the Abbe number, also known as the V-number or constringence of a transparent material, is an approximate measure of the material's dispersion (change of refractive index versus wavelength), with high values of V indicating low dispersion. It is named after Ernst Abbe (1840–1905), the German physicist ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Canon_camcorders

    The L1 was the first camcorder in the world with interchangeable lenses, it uses the Canon VL Lens System. [14] The Canon L2, LX-1T (in Japan), or EX2Hi (in Europe), is the successor to the L1, but is nearly identical in all but a few features such as the addition of time codes and shuttle-ring-equipped remote control. [15]

    Memorial in Jena, Germany to Ernst Karl Abbe, who approximated the diffraction limit of a microscope as = ⁡, where d is the resolvable feature size, λ is the wavelength of light, n is the index of refraction of the medium being imaged in, and θ (depicted as α in the inscription) is the half-angle subtended by the optical objective lens (representing the numerical aperture).

    Dimensions. 92 x 141 x 48 mm. Weight. 620 g. Canon A1 detail. Canon A-1. The Canon A-1 is an advanced-level single-lens reflex (SLR) 35 mm film camera for use with interchangeable lenses. It was manufactured by Canon Camera K. K. (today Canon Incorporated) in Japan from March 1978 to 1985.

  6. Condenser (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condenser_(optics)

    Condenser (optics) A condenser is an optical lens that renders a divergent light beam from a point light source into a parallel or converging beam to illuminate an object to be imaged. Condensers are an essential part of any imaging device, such as microscopes, enlargers, slide projectors, and telescopes. The concept is applicable to all kinds ...

  7. Optical transfer function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_transfer_function

    The line-spread function is directly proportional to the vertical integration of the point-spread image. The optical-transfer function (OTF) is defined as the Fourier transform of the point-spread function and is thus generally a two-dimensional complex function. Typically only a one-dimensional slice is shown (c), corresponding to the Fourier ...

  8. List of Canon products - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Canon_products

    See Canon EF lenses for the product line-up. See Canon EF-S lenses for the product line-up. EF-S lenses are built for APS-C 1.6x crop sensors, so they only work with models that use this sensor size. When EF-S lenses are used on a 35mm (full frame) camera the back element will hit the mirror assembly or cause substantial vignetting since the ...

  9. Abbe sine condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbe_sine_condition

    In optics, the Abbe sine condition is a condition that must be fulfilled by a lens or other optical system in order for it to produce sharp images of off-axis as well as on-axis objects. It was formulated by Ernst Abbe in the context of microscopes. [ 1] The Abbe sine condition says that. the sine of the object-space angle should be ...
