Book excerpt: Which lens should I buy for my camera? It's such a simple question, but choosing the right lens or lenses is actually one of the most important photographic decisions you can make. Nothing affects the quality of a photo more than the lens. It's no longer just about the megapixels-it's the glass that makes all the difference! Many first-time buyers of DSLRs don't venture past the basic lens included in the box. While some are reluctant to spend more money, others are confused by all the buzzwords or are overwhelmed by all the choices out there. It's really a shame, because interchangeable lenses give you amazing scope for quality photography. Take in vast sweeping scenes with a wide angle lens. Capture faraway birds with a telephoto lens. Examine the tiniest detail of a flower with a macro lens. Record the perfect portrait with a prime lens. Anything is possible when you choose the right lens for the job! This book isn't a simple catalogue of available lenses. New products are coming out all the time, and comparing specific lenses can be difficult. Instead, author N.K. Guy gives you all the information you need to make smart buying decisions. Optical technology is demystified, arcane terminology is decoded, and practical tips are provided. The Lens will help you build the perfect lens collection to suit your needs-now and in the future.

Download or read book Applied Photographic Optics written by Sidney Ray and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-02-20 with total page 675 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected by the American Library Association's 'Choice' magazine as "best technical book", the first edition of this book soon established itself as the standard reference work on all aspects of photographic lenses and associated optical systems. This is unsurprising, as Sidney Ray provides a complete, comprehensive reference source for anyone wanting information on photographic lenses, from the student to the practitioner or specialist working with visual and digital media worldwide. This third edition has been fully revised and expanded to include the rapid progress in the last decade in optical technology and advances in relevant electronic and digital forms of imaging. Every chapter has been revised and expanded using new figures and photographs as appropriate, as well as extended bibliographies. New chapters include details of filters, measurements from images and the optical systems of digital cameras. Details of electronic and digital imaging have been integrated throughout. More information is given on topics such as aspherics, diffractive optics, ED glasses, image stabilization, optical technology, video projection and new types of lenses. A selection of the contents includes chapters on: optical theory, aberrations, auto focus, lens testing, depth of field, development of photographic lenses, general properties of lenses, wide-angle lenses, telephoto lenses, video lenses, viewfinder systems, camera movements, projection systems and 3-D systems.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to explain the basic principles of optics and image fomation particular to such lenses and optical systems. Much importance is placed on clear and detailed diagrams of contemporary equipment, and graphs of performance characteristics. The book begins with an explanation of visual perception, followed by sections on basic optics and image formation by representative systems; the design, the manufacture and testing of lenses andd optical systems; optical attachments, including filters and converters; the optics of a numbr of different types of camera; the projection of images; the anicllary and auxillary systems associated with image capture; and related optical and optp-electronic systems including fibre optics, LEDs and LCDs. The book is intended as a compact source of useful data, for anyone concerned with th visual communications industry, from secondary school pupils to professional camera users and euipment specialists. Sindey F Ray is Priniciple Lecturer in Photographic Sciences and Electronic Imaging at the University of Westminster. His other book for Focal Press, Applied photographic Optics has been acclaimed as the definitive work on the subject. he is also the co-author of The Manual of Photography.

Excerpt: ...of the complete doublet, while the front combination has a focal length of about twice that of the complete doublet. This lens works at /6 and the size which is best adapted for general work on a plate 8 x 6i (10'7 ins. focal length) will cover a 15 x 12 plate if a stop of /16 is used, and this with fairly equal illumination. The number of anastigmatic doublets capable of division into two good landscape lenses is now so great that even the names cannot be mentioned. The above are, however, representative examples. 16 The pass test for an Anastigmatic or Stigmatic Doublet.--The long column of Times leader having been set up as already directed Fio. 102. and to the same standard of reduction (p. 84), it should be possible to find a focal plane in which the whole is distinctly legible at the same time, the full aperture of the lens being used. If the lens has a greater rapidity than /6 a little leniency may be allowed. For the whole-plate lens (about 11 ins. focal length) the racking in for curvature of the field should not exceed one tenth of an inch, and the astigmatic difference should not be more than one twentieth of an inch, the test being made as on the margin of a whole plate, as directed (p. 84) for the case of a rapid symmetrical. In the case of lenses of longer or shorter focal length proportionate errors may be allowed. The test for achromatism is made as already directed in the case of the symmetrical. The anastigmat should pass the test absolutely, but care must be taken not to misjudge by reason of want of register between dark slide and focussing frame. A very firm and well made camera is required for this test. 17 Combining Lenses: further Notes.--The lenses described above may be combined to form doublets, and when...
