Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of photographic optics, a field largely ignored by traditional treatises on physics and optics. It specifically examines the design and function of lenses used in photography, a topic that demands a different approach than the study of lenses used in telescopes or microscopes. The author sheds light on the unique challenges posed by photographic lenses, which often receive oblique pencils of light unlike their telescopic counterparts. This results in a new set of aberrations that need to be understood and corrected, including distortion, curvature of the field, and astigmatism. The book systematically explores these aberrations, explaining their causes, effects, and methods of correction. The author delves into the design principles of both aplanatic and non-aplanatic objectives, highlighting the trade-offs between sharpness, field of view, and image intensity. In a time when photographic technology was rapidly evolving, the book's insightful analysis of lens design and function serves as a valuable guide for photographers and those interested in the science behind photographic images. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332537716_0
