  2. Coincidence rangefinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coincidence_rangefinder

    The position of the lenses A and B are known, and the angle of the lenses α and/or β is set by the operator so that both are aimed at the target. Because the distance between A and B on a coincidence rangefinder is typically fixed, once the angle is set correctly the operator need only read the range from the scale.

  3. Stereoscopic rangefinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoscopic_rangefinder

    Stereoscopic rangefinder atop the bridge of the German cruiser Admiral Graf Spee Portable stereoscopic rangefinder with binoculars from WWII. A stereoscopic rangefinder or stereoscopic telemeter [1] is an optical device that measures distance from the observer to a target, using the observer's capability of binocular vision.

  4. Rifleman's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rifleman's_rule

    Assume that a range finder is available that determines that the target is exactly 300 meters distance. 2. Determine the elevation angle of the target. Assume that an angle measurement tool is used that measures the target to be at an angle of with respect to horizontal. 3.

  5. Stadiametric rangefinding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadiametric_rangefinding

    This means that, for a triangle with a given angle, the ratio of opposite side length to adjacent side length (tangent [broken anchor]) is constant. By using a reticle with marks of a known angular spacing, the principle of similar triangles can be used to find either the distance to objects of known size or the size of objects at a known distance.

  6. Osborne Fire Finder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osborne_Fire_Finder

    Osborne also designed the photo-recording transit for making panoramic records of forest conditions, as well as a collapsible water-bag knapsack for firefighting (patented in the US in 1935). Many fire finders were manufactured from 1920 through 1935, but the manufacturer, Leupold & Stevens, Inc. , stopped production of replacement parts after ...

  7. Depression range finder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depression_range_finder

    A depression position finder measured the range to a distant target (such as a ship) by solving a right triangle in which the short side was the height of the instrument above mean low water; one angle was the constant right angle between the short side and the plane of the ocean, and the second angle was the depression angle from the horizontal of the instrument as it sighted down from a fire ...

  8. Scheimpflug principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheimpflug_principle

    The angle ψ increases with focus distance; when the focus is at infinity, the PoF is perpendicular to the image plane for any nonzero value of tilt. The distances u′ and v′ along the line of sight are not the object and image distances u and v used in the thin-lens formula

  9. Waist-level finder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waist-level_finder

    The waist-level finder (WLF), also called waist-level viewfinder (WLVF), is a type of viewfinder that can be used on twin lens and single lens reflex cameras. While it is typically found on older medium format cameras, some newer and/or 35 mm cameras have this type of finder (perhaps as an option).
