Why is the image in a lens camera brighter than the image in a pin hole camera?

Think in terms of ray tracing. Light travels in a straight line in a pinhole camerabecause there is no refracting or reflecting optical element to change the path of the rays of light. The bottom of the film is on the line passing through the pinhole and top of the object. Since all light must pass through the pinhole, that means the top of the object exposes the bottom of the film.


Pinhole camera and human eye similarities?

I think a pinhole camera is similar to the human eye because like the pinhole camera when it sees something it reflects the image but it is an inverted image. With the human eye the brain corrects it and turns it the right way up. The pinhole cameras image is not corrected because it does not have a lens.


Does a Pinhole camera reverse the image as well as invert it?

No


Is the image on the screen of a pinhole camera back to front?

No.


Why is the image formed by a pinhole inverted?

An inverted image is formed in a pinhole camera because the light rays coming from the top and the bottom of the object intersect at the pinhole.

How can the image in a pinhole camera be made bigger?

a pinhole camera has a very small aperture for the light to pass through. Thus the sharp focus distance is very great too. You will get a bigger image if you move your paper or whatever the image lands on, further away from the pinhole.it may not be as bright, though


How the first camera works?

The first cameras were pinhole cameras. They worked by the light from the image on the outside enters through the pinhole and flips it on to the film on the inside and the film captures it.


Why are images upside-down in a pinhole camera?

You can figure out why an image in a pinhole camera is upside down if you think about how the light travels to get to the image. Light from an object higher (or the top of the object) than the camera travels in a straight line down to the camera. It goes through the pinhole and continues heading down until it hits the back of the camera. This means that the image of something higher than the camera is now low in the image. The opposite is true for light from an object lower than the camera (or the bottom of the object): it travels to a point higher in the image. Still does answer my question, how did the image get upside down? answer was no concusive.


Why the image formed on the screen of the pinhole camera is inverted?

The image formed on the screen of the pinhole camera is inverted because the aperture, which is a small hole, bends the light that enters the camera. This basically shows that light travels in straight line.


Why is the screen in a pinhole camera translucent?

A focusing screen in a pinhole camera? Uhh...no. A pinhole camera is a box with a very small hole in one end of it and a piece of film in the other end. The screens in reflex cameras and in view cameras are translucent to give the image something to form on. The light will pass through a transparent screen without forming an image, and it won't go through an opaque screen at all.


What will happen to pinhole camera if the object distance is equal to image distance?

the image distance will appear the same
