  2. Lens flare - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens_flare

    Lens flare on Borobudur stairs to enhance the sense of ascending. A lens flare is often deliberately used to invoke a sense of drama. A lens flare is also useful when added to an artificial or modified image composition because it adds a sense of realism, implying that the image is an un-edited original photograph of a "real life" scene.

  3. Anamorphic format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anamorphic_format

    An anamorphic lens consists of a regular spherical lens, plus an anamorphic attachment (or an integrated lens element) that does the anamorphosing. The anamorphic element operates at infinite focal length, so that it has little or no effect on the focus of the primary lens it's mounted on but still anamorphoses (distorts) the optical field.

  5. Anamorphosis - Wikipedia

    To possess such an image would have been seen as treason in the aftermath of the 1746 Battle of Culloden. [6] The memento mori theme continued into this period, such as in an Anamorphic Painting of Adam and Eve, on display at the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford, Connecticut. This painting by an unknown Italian artist of the 17th or early 18th ...

  6. Iscorama - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iscorama

    This first lens was a two-section detachable monobloc unit, consisting of a 50mm f / 2.8 taking lens, and a 1.5× horizontal stretch focusable anamorphic adapter. The original Iscoramas were discontinued at the end of the 1970s, by which point in time ISCO had released the Cinegon C-Mount Cine lens, plus the Iscorama 36 and Iscorama 54 screw-in ...

  7. Chromatic aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatic_aberration

    Since the focal length of the lens varies with the color of the light different colors of light are brought to focus at different distances from the lens or with different levels of magnification. Chromatic aberration manifests itself as "fringes" of color along boundaries that separate dark and bright parts of the image.

  8. Nonimaging optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonimaging_optics

    Nonimaging optics (also called anidolic optics) [1] [2] [3] is a branch of optics that is concerned with the optimal transfer of light radiation between a source and a target. . Unlike traditional imaging optics, the techniques involved do not attempt to form an image of the source; instead an optimized optical system for optimal radiative transfer from a source to a target is desi

  9. CinemaScope - Wikipedia

    It has been squeezed by a ratio of 2:1 by an anamorphic camera lens. The anamorphic projection lens will stretch the image horizontally to show a normal round circle on the screen. Although CinemaScope was capable of producing a 2.66:1 image, the addition of magnetic sound tracks for multi-channel sound reduced this to 2.55:1.
