Posted: January 12, 2010 6:14 PM Post subject: Focal Length |
|
|
Can anyone help me understand the meaning of focal lenght in a camera? This is the definition that I have but it's a vague definition.
1. The distance from a lens to it's focus.
What and where is the focus?
2. The distance from the lens to the point at which a colimated beam of light entering the lens is brought to a point.
Uh? _________________

you're welcome - it looked like pretty solid info and pretty down-to-earth, too (not like some photography sites where they try to impress you with their technical knowledge without actually telling you much)... _________________

I know. That is the impression I have of the website also and why I've bookmarked it. _________________
