  2. Parfocal lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parfocal_lens

    Zoom lenses (sometimes referred to as "true" zoom) are ideally parfocal, in that focus is maintained as the lens is zoomed (i.e., focal length and magnification changed), which is convenient and has the advantage of allowing more accurate focusing at maximal focal length then zooming back to a shorter focal length to compose the image.

    Protons and neutrons are, in turn, made of quarks. Each type of atom corresponds to a specific chemical element. To date, 118 elements have been discovered or created. Exotic atoms may be composed of particles in addition to or in place of protons, neutrons, and electrons, such as hyperons or muons. Examples include pionium (π − π +

  4. 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]

  5. Barlow lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barlow_lens

    Cone of light behind an achromatic doublet objective lens (A) without (red) and with (green) a Barlow lens optical element (B). The Barlow lens, named after Peter Barlow, is a type of diverging lens which, used in series with other optics in an optical system, increases the effective focal length of an optical system as perceived by all components that are after it in the system.

  6. Lens - Wikipedia

    A burning apparatus consisting of two biconvex lens. A lens is a transmissive optical device that focuses or disperses a light beam by means of refraction.A simple lens consists of a single piece of transparent material, while a compound lens consists of several simple lenses (elements), usually arranged along a common axis.

  7. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_microscope

    The optical microscope, also referred to as a light microscope, is a type of microscope that commonly uses visible light and a system of lenses to generate magnified images of small objects. Optical microscopes are the oldest design of microscope and were possibly invented in their present compound form in the 17th century.

  8. Oil immersion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_immersion

    The refractive indices of the oil and of the glass in the first lens element are nearly the same, which means that the refraction of light will be small upon entering the lens (the oil and glass are optically very similar). The correct immersion oil for an objective lens has to be used to ensure that the refractive indices match closely. Use of ...

    So more positive and negative elements with variable air gaps between them, The compensator action is therefore rather more complex than that of the variator, hence true parfocal zoom lenses are less common than partially compensated varifocals. 87.75.117.183 17:31, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
