  2. Perspective control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_control

    Most large format (4x5 and up) cameras have this feature, as well as plane of focus control built into the camera body in the form of flexible bellows and moveable front (lens) and rear (film holder) elements. Thus any focal length lens mounted on a view camera or field camera, and many press cameras can be used with perspective control.

  3. Photographic lens design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_lens_design

    The type of lens being designed is significant in setting the key parameters. Prime lens - a photographic lens whose focal length is fixed, as opposed to a zoom lens, or that is the primary lens in a combination lens system. Zoom lenses - variable focal length lenses. Zoom lenses cover a range of focal lengths by utilising movable elements ...

  4. Perspective distortion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_distortion

    Compression, long-lens, or telephoto distortion can be seen in images shot from a distance using a long focus lens or the more common telephoto sub-type (with an angle of view narrower than a normal lens). Distant objects look approximately the same size – closer objects are abnormally small, and more distant objects are abnormally large, and ...

  5. Lenticular lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenticular_lens

    A lenticular lens is an array of lenses, designed so that when viewed from slightly different angles, different parts of the image underneath are shown. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ failed verification – see discussion ] The most common example is the lenses used in lenticular printing , where the technology is used to give an illusion of depth, or to make ...

  6. Pentaprism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentaprism

    A pentaprism. A perspective drawing showing a roof pentaprism commonly used in a single lens reflex camera (SLR). The image is flipped laterally by the prism. A pentaprism is a five-sided reflecting prism used to deviate a beam of light by a constant 90°, even if the entry beam is not at 90° to the prism.

  7. Clipping path - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clipping_path

    A clipping path (or "deep etch" [1]) is a closed vector path, or shape, used to cut out a 2D image in image editing software. Anything inside the path will be included after the clipping path is applied; anything outside the path will be omitted from the output.

  8. Rectilinear lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectilinear_lens

    (a digital camera with an image sensor which size is similar to 35 mm film in film cameras as the standard film camera format) [2] The vast majority of video and still cameras use lenses that produce nearly rectilinear images. A popular alternative type of lens is a fisheye lens which produces a distinctly curvilinear, wide-angled result.

  9. Gaussian blur - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_blur

    Most edge-detection algorithms are sensitive to noise; the 2-D Laplacian filter, built from a discretization of the Laplace operator, is highly sensitive to noisy environments. Using a Gaussian Blur filter before edge detection aims to reduce the level of noise in the image, which improves the result of the following edge-detection algorithm.
