  2. Camera lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_lens

    The lenses attach to the camera using a lens mount, which contains mechanical linkages and often also electrical contacts between the lens and camera body. The lens mount design is an important issue for compatibility between cameras and lenses. There is no universal standard for lens mounts, and each major camera maker typically uses its own ...

  3. Lenses for SLR and DSLR cameras - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Lenses_for_SLR_and_DSLR_cameras

    The M42 lens mount is a screw thread mounting standard for attaching lenses to 35 mm cameras, primarily single-lens reflex models. It is more accurately known as the M42 × 1 mm standard, which means that it is a metric screw thread of 42 mm diameter and 1 mm thread pitch.

  4. Focal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focal_length

    A lens with a focal length shorter than normal is often referred to as a wide-angle lens (typically 35 mm and less, for 35 mm-format cameras), while a lens significantly longer than normal may be referred to as a telephoto lens (typically 85 mm and more, for 35 mm-format cameras). Technically, long focal length lenses are only "telephoto" if ...

  5. Lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens

    The plate scale is the reciprocal of the focal length of the camera lens; lenses are categorized as long-focus lenses or wide-angle lenses according to their focal lengths. Using an inappropriate measurement of magnification can be formally correct but yield a meaningless number.

  6. Telecentric lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecentric_lens

    A telecentric lens is a special optical lens (often an objective lens or a camera lens) that has its entrance or exit pupil, or both, at infinity. The size of images produced by a telecentric lens is insensitive to either the distance between an object being imaged and the lens, or the distance between the image plane and the lens, or both, and ...

  7. Photographic lens design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_lens_design

    Varifocal lenses are also used in many modern autofocus cameras as the lenses are cheaper and simpler to construct and the autofocus can take care of the re-focussing requirements. Many modern zoom lenses are now confocal, meaning that the focus is maintained throughout the zoom range. Because of the need to operate over a range of focal ...

  8. Digital single-lens reflex camera - Wikipedia

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

    A digital single-lens reflex camera (digital SLR or DSLR) is a digital camera that combines the optics and mechanisms of a single-lens reflex camera with a solid-state image sensor and digitally records the images from the sensor. The reflex design scheme is the primary difference between a DSLR and other digital cameras.

  9. Lens speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens_speed

    Attaining maximum lens speed requires engineering tradeoffs, and as such, "prime" (fixed focal length) lenses are generally faster than zoom lenses. [2] With 35mm film cameras and full-frame digital cameras, the fastest lenses are typically in the "normal lens" range near 50mm; here, there are several relatively inexpensive high-quality fast ...
