  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. Field of view - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_of_view

    FOV both eyes Vertical FOV Angle of view can be measured horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. The field of view (FOV) is the angular extent of the observable world that is seen at any given moment. In the case of optical instruments or sensors, it is a solid angle through which a detector is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation.

  4. Digital single-lens reflex camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_single-lens_reflex...

    A movable mechanical mirror system is switched down (to precisely a 45-degree angle) to direct light from the lens over a matte focusing screen via a condenser lens and a pentaprism/pentamirror to an optical viewfinder eyepiece. Most entry-level DSLRs use a pentamirror instead of the traditional pentaprism.

  5. Single-lens reflex camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-lens_reflex_camera

    A cross-section (or 'side-view') of the optical components of a typical SLR camera shows how the light passes through the lens assembly, is reflected by the mirror placed at a 45-degree angle, and is projected on the matte focusing screen. Via a condensing lens and internal reflections in the roof pentaprism the image appears in the eyepiece.

  6. Camera angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_angle

    Where the camera is placed in relation to the subject can affect the way the viewer perceives the subject. Some of these many camera angles are the high-angle shot, low-angle shot, bird's-eye view, and worm's-eye view. A viewpoint is the apparent distance and angle from which the camera views and records the subject. [2]

  7. Reflex camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflex_camera

    Cross-section view of an SLR system, one of several systems by which reflex cameras are able to operate: 1: Front-mount lens (four-element Tessar design) 2: Reflex mirror at 45-degree angle 3: Focal plane shutter 4: Film or sensor 5: Focusing screen 6: Condenser lens 7: Optical glass pentaprism (or pentamirror) 8: Eyepiece (can have diopter correction ability)

  8. Wide-angle lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide-angle_lens

    Ultra wide angle lenses have a focal length shorter than the short side of the film or sensor [citation needed]. In 35 mm, an ultra wide-angle lens has a focal length shorter than 24 mm. Common wide-angle lenses for a full-frame 35 mm camera are 35, 28, 24, 21, 20, 18, and 14 mm

  9. Schüfftan process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schüfftan_process

    Schüfftan placed a plate of glass at a 45-degree angle between the camera and the miniature buildings. He used the camera's viewfinder to trace an outline of the area into which the actors would later be inserted onto the glass. This outline was transferred onto a mirror and all the reflective surface that fell outside the outline was removed ...
