Pinhole Camera • Image is upside down and left to right reversed • Size of image is determined by distance from pinhole to screen/film • The smaller the pinhole, the clearer the image & the dimmer the image
Three Rays to Locate Image • Ray parallel to axis bends through the focus. • Ray through the focus bends parallel to axis. • Ray through center of lens passes straight through.
Characterizing the Image • Images are characterized in the following way • Virtual or Real • Upright or Inverted • Reduced, Enlarged, Same Size
Object Beyond 2f • Image is • Real • Inverted • Reduced
Object at 2f • Image is • Real • Inverted • Same size
Object Between 2f and f • Image is • Real • Inverted • Enlarged
Object at F • No Image is Formed!
Object Closer than F • Image is • Virtual • Upright • Enlarged
Eye Optics Accommodation – Shockwave Applet
Normal Eye • In the normal eye, the cornea/lens system project an inverted, “focused” image on the retina – which is the screen.
Myopia -- Nearsightedness • In a nearsighted eye, the image is “focused” in front of the retina. • A diverging (concave) lens is used to cause the image to be “focused” at the retina.
Hyperopia -- Farsightedness • In a farsighted eye, the image is “focused” behind the retina. • A converging (convex) lens is used to cause the image to be “focused” at the retina.
Astigmatism • In astigmatism, the cornea is irregularly shaped & the light focuses at multiple points. • The result is blurry or multiple images.
Concave Lens Ray Tracing • Ray parallel to axis refracts as if it comes from the first focus. • Ray which lines up with second focus refracts parallel to axis. • Ray through center of lens doesn’t bend.
Image Formed by Concave Lens • Image is always • Virtual • Upright • Reduced
Concave Lens Image Distance • As object distance decreases • Image distance decreases • Image size increases
Image Characteristics • CONVEX LENS – IMAGE DEPENDS ON OBJECT POSITION • Beyond F: Real; Inverted; Enlarged, Reduced, or Same Size • Closer than F: Virtual, Upright, Enlarged • At F: NO IMAGE • CONCAVE LENS – IMAGE ALWAYS SAME • Virtual • Upright • Reduced
