    The design forms the basis for many camera lenses in use today, especially the wide-aperture standard lenses used on 35 mm and other small-format cameras. It can offer good results up to f /1.4 with a wide field of view, and has sometimes been made at f / 1.0.

  3. Reflex finder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflex_finder

    A reflex finder is a viewfinder system with a mirror placed behind a lens. The light passing through the lens is reflected by the mirror to a focusing screen, usually ground glass. The image formed on this ground glass can be observed directly, giving a waist-level reflex finder, or through a redressing optical device (set of mirrors or prism ...

  4. Photographic lens design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_lens_design

    Photographic lens design. The design of photographic lenses for use in still or cine cameras is intended to produce a lens that yields the most acceptable rendition of the subject being photographed within a range of constraints that include cost, weight and materials. For many other optical devices such as telescopes, microscopes and ...

    This can be done with two separate side-by-side cameras; with one camera moved from one position to another between exposures; with one camera and a single exposure by means of an attached mirror or prism arrangement that presents a stereoscopic image pair to the camera lens; or with a stereo camera incorporating two or more side-by-side lenses.

  6. High-speed photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_photography

    Muybridge's photographic sequence of a race horse galloping, first published in 1878.. High-speed photography is the science of taking pictures of very fast phenomena. In 1948, the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) defined high-speed photography as any set of photographs captured by a camera capable of 69 frames per second or greater, and of at least three consecutive ...

  7. Pentax cameras - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentax_cameras

    Due to the smaller size of the CCD, lenses have an effective field of view of 1.5 × times the same lens in 35 mm format. So, where a 50 mm lens was considered a "normal" lens on 35 mm film, that same lens on a 1.5× "crop factor" camera has the field of view of a 75 mm lens on film. This only uses the center of the lens' projected image.

  8. Professional video camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_video_camera

    A professional video camera (often called a television camera even though its use has spread beyond television) is a high-end device for creating electronic moving images (as opposed to a movie camera, that earlier recorded the images on film ). Originally developed for use in television studios or with outside broadcast trucks, they are now ...
