  2. Impossible color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impossible_color

    These are simultaneously dark and impossibly saturated. For example, to see "stygian blue": staring at bright yellow causes a dark blue afterimage, then on looking at black, the blue is seen as blue against the black, also as dark as the black. The color is not possible to achieve through normal vision, because the lack of incident light (in ...

  3. Chromatic aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatic_aberration

    Chromatic aberration also affects black-and-white photography. Although there are no colors in the photograph, chromatic aberration will blur the image. It can be reduced by using a narrow-band color filter, or by converting a single color channel to black and white. This will, however, require longer exposure (and change the resulting image).

  4. Black balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_balance

    This is why the camera automatically closes the iris completely when it does the black balance. Conditions under which black balance are typically done are when the camera experiences a large change in operating temperature, especially from colder to warmer. Otherwise, it is a periodic thing to allow for other minor factors that could come into ...

  5. Color blindness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_blindness

    blue and green; dark blue/violet and black; violet and yellow-green; red and rose-pink; These colors of confusion are defined quantitatively by straight confusion lines plotted in CIEXYZ, usually plotted on the corresponding chromaticity diagram. The lines all intersect at a copunctal point, which varies with the type of color blindness. [8]

  6. Photographic film - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_film

    Typically the blue-sensitive layer is on top, followed by a yellow filter layer to stop any remaining blue light from affecting the layers below. Next comes a green-and-blue sensitive layer, and a red-and-blue sensitive layer, which record the green and red images respectively.

  7. ThinkPad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThinkPad

    ThinkPad is an American line of business-oriented laptop and tablet computers produced since 1992. The early models were designed, developed and marketed by International Business Machines (IBM) until it sold its PC business to Lenovo in 2005; since 2007, all new ThinkPad models have been branded Lenovo instead [5] and the Chinese manufacturer has continued to develop and sell ThinkPads to the ...

  8. History of photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_photography

    View from the Window at Le Gras 1826 or 1827, believed to be the earliest surviving camera photograph. [1] Original (left) and colorized reoriented enhancement (right).. The history of photography began with the discovery of two critical principles: The first is camera obscura image projection; the second is the discovery that some substances are visibly altered by exposure to light. [2]

  9. Pinhole camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_camera

    A pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens but with a tiny aperture (the so-called pinhole)—effectively a light-proof box with a small hole in one side. Light from a scene passes through the aperture and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the box, which is known as the camera obscura effect.
