  2. Single-lens reflex camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-lens_reflex_camera

    A single-lens reflex camera ( SLR) is a camera that typically uses a mirror and prism system (hence "reflex" from the mirror's reflection) that permits the photographer to view through the lens and see exactly what will be captured. With twin lens reflex and rangefinder cameras, the viewed image could be significantly different from the final ...

  3. Perspective control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_control

    The same picture corrected. Perspective control is a procedure for composing or editing photographs to better conform with the commonly accepted distortions in constructed perspective. The control would: make all lines that are vertical in reality vertical in the image.

  4. 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. The beam reflects inside the prism ...

  5. Flat-field correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-field_correction

    Flat-field correction (FFC) is a digital imaging technique to mitigate the image detector pixel-to-pixel sensitivity and distortions in the optical path. It is a standard calibration procedure in everything from personal digital cameras to large telescopes.

  6. Distortion (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distortion_(optics)

    Distortion (optics) Not to be confused with spherical aberration, a loss of image sharpness that can result from spherical lens surfaces. In geometric optics, distortion is a deviation from rectilinear projection; a projection in which straight lines in a scene remain straight in an image. It is a form of optical aberration .

  7. Canon FT QL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_FT_QL

    The Canon FT QL is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera introduced by Canon Inc. in March 1966. It has a Canon FL lens mount compatible with the large range of FL series lenses. The FT can also operate the later Canon FD series lenses in stop-down mode, but the earlier R series has a different lens aperture mechanism and cannot be used, although ...

  8. Pentamirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentamirror

    A pentamirror is an optical device used in the viewfinder systems of various single-lens reflex cameras instead of the pentaprism. It is used to reverse again the laterally reversed image coming from the reflex mirror. Instead of the solid block of glass of the prism in pentaprism system, here 3 mirrors are used to perform the same task.

  9. Tilt–shift photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilt–shift_photography

    Tilt–shift photography is the use of camera movements that change the orientation or position of the lens with respect to the film or image sensor on cameras. Sometimes the term is used when a shallow depth of field is simulated with digital post-processing; the name may derive from a perspective control lens (or tilt–shift lens) normally ...

  10. DxO ViewPoint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DxO_ViewPoint

    Website. www .dxo .com /dxo-viewpoint /. DxO ViewPoint is image geometry and lens defect correction software developed by DxO. It is designed to automatically straighten distorted perspectives caused by the lens used and the position of the photographer.

  11. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prism dioptres. Prism correction is commonly specified in prism dioptres, a unit of angular measurement that is loosely related to the dioptre. Prism dioptres are represented by the Greek symbol delta (Δ) in superscript. A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. [2]
