  2. Focal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focal_length

    To render closer objects in sharp focus, the lens must be adjusted to increase the distance between the rear principal plane and the film, to put the film at the image plane. The focal length f, the distance from the front principal plane to the object to photograph s 1, and the distance from the rear principal plane to the image plane s 2 are ...

  3. 35 mm equivalent focal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/35_mm_equivalent_focal_length

    35 mm equivalent focal lengths are calculated by multiplying the actual focal length of the lens by the crop factor of the sensor. Typical crop factors are 1.26× – 1.29× for Canon (1.35× for Sigma "H") APS-H format, 1.5× for Nikon APS-C ("DX") format (also used by Sony, Pentax, Fuji, Samsung and others), 1.6× for Canon APS-C format, 2× for Micro Four Thirds format, 2.7× for 1-inch ...

  4. Flange focal distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flange_focal_distance

    Diagram illustrating the flange focal length of an SLR–type and a mirrorless–type camera. For an interchangeable lens camera, the flange focal distance (FFD) (also known as the flange-to-film distance, flange focal depth, flange back distance (FBD), flange focal length (FFL), back focus [1] or register, depending on the usage and source) of a lens mount system is the distance from the ...

  5. Hyperfocal distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperfocal_distance

    The depth of field, and thus hyperfocal distance, changes with the focal length as well as the f-stop. This lens is set to the hyperfocal distance for f /32 at a focal length of 100 mm. In optics and photography, hyperfocal distance is a distance from a lens beyond which all objects can be brought into an "acceptable" focus.

  6. f-number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-number

    A 100 mm focal length f /4 lens has an entrance pupil diameter of 25 mm. A 100 mm focal length f /2 lens has an entrance pupil diameter of 50 mm. Since the area is proportional to the square of the pupil diameter, [6] the amount of light admitted by the f /2 lens is four times that of the f /4 lens.

  7. Thin lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin_lens

    The distance between an object and a lens. Real object Virtual object s i: The distance between an image and a lens. Real image Virtual image f: The focal length of a lens. Converging lens Diverging lens y o: The height of an object from the optical axis. Erect object Inverted object y i: The height of an image from the optical axis Erect image ...

  8. Angle of view (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_of_view_(photography)

    Log-log graphs of lens focal length vs crop factor vs equivalent focal length for 35 mm film or image sensor size (= the focal length multiplied by a crop factor) vs diagonal, horizontal and vertical angles of view for film or sensors of 3:2 and 4:3 aspect ratios.

  9. List of optics equations - Wikipedia

    Image distance in a spherical mirror + = () Subscripts 1 and 2 refer to initial and final optical media respectively. These ratios are sometimes also used, following simply from other definitions of refractive index, wave phase velocity, and the luminal speed equation:
