  2. Depth of field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_of_field

    The hyperfocal distance has a property called "consecutive depths of field", where a lens focused at an object whose distance from the lens is at the hyperfocal distance H will hold a depth of field from H/2 to infinity, if the lens is focused to H/2, the depth of field will be from H/3 to H; if the lens is then focused to H/3, the depth of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperfocal_distance

    The hyperfocal distance has a property called "consecutive depths of field", where a lens focused at an object whose distance from the lens is at the hyperfocal distance H will hold a depth of field from H/2 to infinity, if the lens is focused to H/2, the depth of field will be from H/3 to H; if the lens is then focused to H/3, the depth of ...

  4. Depth of focus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_of_focus

    Depth of field depends on the focus distance, while depth of focus does not. Depth of focus can have two slightly different meanings. The first is the distance over which the image plane can be displaced while a single object plane remains in acceptably sharp focus; [1][2] [clarify] the second is the image-side conjugate of depth of field.

  5. f-number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-number

    Comparison of f /32 (top-left half) and f /5 (bottom-right half) Shallow focus with a wide open lens. Depth of field increases with f-number, as illustrated in the image here. This means that photographs taken with a low f-number (large aperture) will tend to have subjects at one distance in focus, with the rest of the image (nearer and farther ...

  6. Gaussian beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_beam

    The Gaussian function has a 1/e 2 diameter (2w as used in the text) about 1.7 times the FWHM.. At a position z along the beam (measured from the focus), the spot size parameter w is given by a hyperbolic relation: [1] = + (), where [1] = is called the Rayleigh range as further discussed below, and is the refractive index of the medium.

  7. Circle of confusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_confusion

    To calculate the diameter of the circle of confusion in the image plane for an out-of-focus subject, one method is to first calculate the diameter of the blur circle in a virtual image in the object plane, which is simply done using similar triangles, and then multiply by the magnification of the system, which is calculated with the help of the ...

  8. Focal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focal_length

    To focus a distant object (s 1 ≈ ∞), the rear principal plane of the lens must be located a distance s 2 = 50 mm from the film plane, so that it is at the location of the image plane. To focus an object 1 m away (s 1 = 1,000 mm), the lens must be moved 2.6 mm farther away from the film plane, to s 2 = 52.6 mm.

  9. Scheimpflug principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheimpflug_principle

    Depth of field when the PoF is rotated When the lens and image planes are parallel, the depth of field (DoF) extends between parallel planes on either side of the plane of focus. When the Scheimpflug principle is employed, the DoF becomes wedge shaped (Merklinger 1996, 32; Tillmanns 1997, 71), [ f ] with the apex of the wedge at the PoF ...
