  2. Stopping down - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stopping_down

    The effect is that for most lenses, the balance between the decreasing aberrations and the increasing diffraction effects of stopping down the lens means that lenses have an optimum aperture for best results, often about three stops closed down from maximum aperture, so for a lens with a maximum aperture of ƒ/2.8, ƒ/8 would be the optimum ...

  3. Close-up lens - Wikipedia

    That distance is sometimes given on the filter in millimeters. A +3 close-up lens has a maximal working distance of 0.333 m or 333 mm. The magnification is the focal distance of the objective lens (f) divided by the focal distance of the close-up lens; i.e., the focal distance of the objective lens (in meters) multiplied by the diopter value (D) of the close-up lens:

  4. Windows Camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Camera

    Windows Camera is an image and video capture utility included with the most recent versions of Windows and its mobile counterpart. It has been around on Windows-based mobile devices since camera hardware was included on those devices and was introduced on Windows PCs with Windows 8, providing users for the first time a first-party built-in camera that could interact with webcam hardware.

  5. Camera lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_lens

    Different kinds of camera lenses, including wide angle, telephoto and speciality. A camera lens (also known as photographic lens or photographic objective) is an optical lens or assembly of lenses (compound lens) used in conjunction with a camera body and mechanism to make images of objects either on photographic film or on other media capable of storing an image chemically or electronically.

    A webcam is a video camera which is designed to record or stream to a computer or computer network. They are primarily used in video telephony , live streaming and social media , and security . Webcams can be built-in computer hardware or peripheral devices , and are commonly connected to a device using USB or wireless protocol .

  7. Zoom lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoom_lens

    A zoom lens is a system of camera lens elements for which the focal length (and thus angle of view) can be varied, as opposed to a fixed-focal-length (FFL) lens . A true zoom lens or optical zoom lens is a type of parfocal lens , one that maintains focus when its focal length changes. [ 1 ]

  8. S-mount (CCTV lens) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-mount_(CCTV_lens)

    The lenses lack an iris control. S-mount lenses do not have a flange and therefore there is no fixed lens to sensor distance and they must be adjusted to focus. [2] Due to the small size of the lens barrel, performance is somewhat limited compared to larger lenses [3] and most S-mount lenses are relatively slow (f /1.6 and slower).

  9. Shutter speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shutter_speed

    For example, for handheld use of a 35 mm camera with a 50 mm normal lens, the closest shutter speed is 1 ⁄ 60 s (closest to "50"), while for a 200 mm lens it is recommended not to choose shutter speeds below 1 ⁄ 200 s. This rule can be augmented with knowledge of the intended application for the photograph, an image intended for significant ...
