2. Fisheye lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisheye_lens

   A fisheye lens is an ultra wide-angle lens that produces strong visual distortion intended to create a wide panoramic or hemispherical image. [4][5]: 145 Fisheye lenses achieve extremely wide angles of view, well beyond any rectilinear lens. Instead of producing images with straight lines of perspective (rectilinear images), fisheye lenses use ...

3. Vision in fish - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vision_in_fish

   Usually, light enters through the fish eye at the cornea and passes through the pupil in order to reach the lens. Most fish species have a fixed size of the pupil while a few species have a muscular iris that allows for the adjustment of the pupil diameter. Fish eyes have a more spherical lens than other terrestrial vertebrates.

4. History of photographic lens design - Wikipedia

   The first widely-available fisheye lens for 35mm cameras was the Fisheye-Nikkor 8 mm f /8 from Nikon, released in 1962, which produced circular images similar to those popularized by the LIFE photographers; [71] that lens served as the "eye" of the HAL 9000 computer from the film 2001: A Space Odyssey, [72] although scenes depicting HAL's point ...

5. Hemispherical photography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemispherical_photography

   Hemispherical photograph used to study microclimate of winter roosting habitat at the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve, Mexico.. Hemispherical photography, also known as canopy photography, is a technique to estimate solar radiation and characterize plant canopy geometry using photographs taken looking upward through an extreme wide-angle lens or a fisheye lens (Rich 1990).

6. Luneburg lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luneburg_lens

   A Luneburg lens (original German Lüneburg lens) is a spherically symmetric gradient-index lens. A typical Luneburg lens's refractive index n decreases radially from the center to the outer surface. They can be made for use with electromagnetic radiation from visible light to radio waves. For certain index profiles, the lens will form perfect ...

7. Angle of view (photography) - Wikipedia

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

   Fisheye lenses, typical focal lengths are between 8 mm and 10 mm for circular images, and 15–16 mm for full-frame images. Up to 180° and beyond. A circular fisheye lens (as opposed to a full-frame fisheye) is an example of a
