Does camera lenses have long or short focal points?
The short focal length of a camera lens is so that the image the lens forms is small and can be focused on a piece of light-sensitive film.
How to use a 35 mm lens in a 16 mm camera?
You need to buy an adaptor. Make sure you specify exactly the type of lens and exactly the camera you want to attach it to. Don't forget that there will be a large increase in magnification, i.e. your 35mm lens will give more telephoto effect on a 16mm camera. It is unlikely that the automatic functions (aperture, focus) of the lens will be carried into the 16mm camera.
A type of lens that keeps an image in constant focus while appearing to glide toward or away from the subject without any camera movement is called?
Parfocal, commonly used in high end zoom lenses and video lenses.
Why is an SLR camera better than the automatic?
SLR or single lens reflex refers to a particular type of camera in which the image and the viewfinder are both taken from one lens. effectively WYSIWYG. auto focus auto exposure modes have been available in SLR cameras for a very long time thus making them "automatic." As a side note an SLR need not have exchangeable lenses to be an SLR nor are all cameras with exchangeable lenses SLR's. The primary advantage of SLR's is the fact that the image in the viewfinder is pretty much the image that you get when you release the shutter.
What is camera glass called?
Focusing screen, in it's simplest form. Fresnel lens (a type of focusing screen)
What is the type of image formed by lens of a camera?

What is the only type of image that can be formed by both a concave lens and a convex lens?
Virtual image
Is the type of image formed by a convex lens depend on the location of the object relative to the optical axis?
No it isn't, because the type of image a convex lens forms depends on where the object is relative to the focal point of the lens.
What type of image is produced by a converging lens on the screen?
a virtual and erect image is always formed by a covering lence
What two factors determine the type of image formed by lens?
The focal length of the lens and the distance between the lens and the object.
What type of image is formed when the object is less than one focal length from the lens?
your mums cheating on your dad...
What type of device forms images through refraction?
Any device containing a lens, such as a camera or projector, or one which uses prisms such as a periscope.
Does camera lenses have long or short focal points?
The short focal length of a camera lens is so that the image the lens forms is small and can be focused on a piece of light-sensitive film.
What type of image is formed when object is kept at F for a convex lens?
For a convex lens the focal point is the transition point between getting a real image and a virtual image. If the object is at a greater distance then F you get a real image. If the object is closer to the lens then F you get a virtual image. If the object is located at F the light rays from the object leave the lens parallel and never form any kind of image.
How is the image formed on the film of a camera?
In a camera, the light from the subject is refracted by the camera lens, and focused on the film or digital receptor inside the camera. The lens is taking the "large image" and shrinking it to a smaller size, and this small image becomes the digital image (or the negative image on film).How a Camera WorksA camera is any sort of light tight chamber (the word camera means "chamber" in Latin) with a pinhole or convex lens in one side. The lens is what "forms" the image on the opposite side of the camera. Your eyes are cameras! They are light-tight chambers with convex lenses which form continuous images on the retinas (light sensitive surfaces) at the backs of your eyeballs. Because of the way light passes through a pinhole or lens, the image is projected to the back of any camera upside down. This is just as true in your eye as it is in your camera! But, you protest, I don't see upside down! No, you don't, because your brain "flips" the image right side up as it comes from your optic nerve. Your digital camera does the same thing electronically before it delivers the image to your viewscreen.Sight, and your camera, works because objects reflect light. Even black objects reflect some light. Lighter colors reflect more. The pinhole or lens in any camera is gathering light as it comes reflected from a scene. The light reflected from the scene is scattering in all directions, but as light from what you see reaches the pinhole or convex lens in your camera or eye, you can try imagining that the light rays from the scene must bendand squash down (we say converge) in order to pass through the pinhole or lens. Inside, the light rays must cross, which is why the image projected to the back is upside down. If the lens is the correct distance (focused) from the back of the camera, the lens will form a sharp image on the side opposite the lens, which can be your retina, film in a film camera, or the sensor in a digital camera.There's lots more to know. See the Related Question, and be sure to check out the Related Link below. It has a fun, easy project for any age for making a pinhole camera that you can look inside and actually see the upside down image projected onto a translucent screen made of waxed paper.
Which type of image does a concave lens form?
Cancave lens always gives virtual, erect and diminished image.
What does Slr means?
SLR stands for single lens reflex. This is the type of camera in which the image goes into the lens and is reflected by a mirror into your eye at the viewfinder. You therefore see exactly what the lens is seeing. This type of camera also usually allows you to remove the lens and replace it with another, such as a wide-angle lens by a telephoto, etc. An SLR now can either be a film camera or a digital camera.
