  2. Telephoto lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephoto_lens

    Diagram of a typical telephoto lens with a large positive lens and a smaller negative telephoto group combined to create a much longer focal length - f. The simplest telephoto lens can be regarded as having two elements: one (on the object side) converging and another (on the image side) diverging.

  3. Photographic lens design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_lens_design

    The design of telephoto lenses reduces some of the problems encountered by designers of long-focus lenses. In particular, telephoto lenses are typically much shorter and may be lighter for equivalent focal length and aperture. However telephoto designs increase the number of lens elements and can introduce flare and exacerbate some optical ...

  4. Camera lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_lens

    Different kinds of camera lenses, including wide angle, telephoto and speciality. A camera lens (also known as photographic lens or photographic objective) is an optical lens or assembly of lenses (compound lens) used in conjunction with a camera body and mechanism to make images of objects either on photographic film or on other media capable of storing an image chemically or electronically.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catadioptric_system

    Catadioptric combinations are used in focusing systems such as searchlights, headlamps, early lighthouse focusing systems, optical telescopes, microscopes, and telephoto lenses. Other optical systems that use lenses and mirrors are also referred to as "catadioptric", such as surveillance catadioptric sensors.

    They began breaking new ground around 1960: the Nippon Kogaku Auto-Nikkor 8.5–25 cm f/4-4.5 (1959), for the Nikon F, was the first telephoto zoom lens for 35mm still cameras (and second zoom after the Zoomar), [141] the Canon 50mm f/0.95 (1961), for the Canon 7 35mm RF, with its superwide aperture, was the first Japanese lens a photographer ...

  7. Angénieux retrofocus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angénieux_retrofocus

    The telephoto lens configuration combines positive and negative lens groups with the negative at the rear, serving to magnify the image, which reduces the back focal distance of the lens (the distance between the back of the lens and the image plane) to a figure shorter than the focal length. This is for practical, not optical reasons, because ...

    the inverse telephoto (retrofocus) lens, created for use with the early Technicolor process, and now the standard design for wide-angle lenses in 35 mm and other small-format cameras; high-quality zoom lenses for cinematography and television; high quality lenses for cinema projectors; Cooke / Taylor-Hobson lens diagrams

  9. Zoom lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoom_lens

    The markings on these lenses usually say W and T for "Wide" and "Telephoto". Telephoto is designated because the longer focal length supplied by the negative diverging lens is longer than the overall lens assembly (the negative diverging lens acting as the "telephoto group").
