  2. Reflex finder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflex_finder

    A reflex finder is a viewfinder system with a mirror placed behind a lens. The light passing through the lens is reflected by the mirror to a focusing screen, usually ground glass. The image formed on this ground glass can be observed directly, giving a waist-level reflex finder, or through a redressing optical device (set of mirrors or prism ...

  3. Hirschberg test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirschberg_test

    Purpose. whether a person has strabismus. In the fields of optometry and ophthalmology, the Hirschberg test, also Hirschberg corneal reflex test, is a screening test that can be used to assess whether a person has strabismus (ocular misalignment). A photographic version of the Hirschberg test is used to quantify strabismus.

  4. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prism correction is measured in prism dioptres. A prescription that specifies prism correction will also specify the "base". The base is the thickest part of the lens and is opposite from the apex. Light will be bent towards the base and the image will be shifted towards the apex.

  5. Viewfinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viewfinder

    Viewfinder. In photography, a viewfinder is a small window the photographer looks through to see what a photo will look like before they capture it. [1] Some viewfinders see directly through the lens, whereas others are separate and show an approximation of what the photo will look like. The second type is much simpler to design, but creates a ...

  6. Waist-level finder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waist-level_finder

    The waist-level finder ( WLF ), also called waist-level viewfinder ( WLVF ), is a type of viewfinder that can be used on twin lens and single lens reflex cameras. While it is typically found on older medium format cameras, some newer and/or 35 mm cameras have this type of finder (perhaps as an option). In the reflex camera, the light from the ...

  7. History of the single-lens reflex camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_single-lens...

    This camera used an eye-level pentaprism, which allowed eye-level-viewing of an image oriented correctly from left to right. Waist-level finders, however, showed a reversed image, which the photographer had to mentally adjust for while composing the image by looking downward and viewing and focusing.

  8. Through the Viewfinder photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Through_the_Viewfinder...

    Through the Viewfinder ( TtV) photography is a photographic or videographic technique in which a photograph or video or motion picture film is shot with one camera through the viewfinder of a second camera. The viewfinder thus acts as a kind of lens filter. [1] [2] [3] The most popular method involves using a digital camera as the image taking ...

  9. Adjustable-focus eyeglasses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjustable-focus_eyeglasses

    Adjustable focus eyeglasses are eyeglasses with an adjustable focal length. They compensate for refractive errors (such as presbyopia) by providing variable focusing, allowing users to adjust them for desired distance or prescription, or both. Current bifocals and progressive lenses are static, in that the user has to change their eye position ...
