Photos : réglage de Focale. 1. Notion La focale correspond à la distance entre la projection sur le capteur d'un point situé à l'infini et la lentille. Elle se mesure en millimètre (mm). Cette unité est standardisée y compris dans les pays pour lesquels le mètre n'est pas l'unité principale. La focale entre dans le calcul de la profondeur de champs, avec l'ouverture, ainsi que la distance du sujet et la taille du capteur. Les valeurs grand public varient de 16mm (pour les grands angles) à 400mm (pour les téléobjectifs). Il faut bien voir que la valeur de la focale inscrite sur l'objectif est celle qui correspond à un capteur type 24x36 (appareil argentique classique, ou capteur full-frame pour les appareils numériques). Un dernier point : lorsque les spécs techniques parlent d'un zoom de 10x, cela signifie qu'il y a un rapport de 10 entre la focale la plus grande et la focale la plus petite de l'appareil. 2. 3.

Big Aperture: Add Depth Of Field, Lighting & Bokeh Effect To Any Photo [Mac] The Problem With The Focus-Recompose Method. Primed: Why your camera's sensor size matters. Primed goes in-depth on the technobabble you hear on Engadget every day -- we dig deep into each topic's history and how it benefits our lives. You can follow the series here. Looking to suggest a piece of technology for us to break down? Drop us a line at primed *at* engadget *dawt* com. The first thing I look for when purchasing a camera is something most aren't even aware of. In writing my first installment for Primed, I'll give a few definitions to clear things up a bit when it comes to a camera's image sensors and size, explain in detail the parts of a sensor, how it alters the photos (or video) you capture, where it came from, and why it's important to consider its size – I'll cover the meat and bones, get to the heart of the matter, the nub, the crux, the nuts and bolts, get down to the brass tacks, all while exhausting our thesaurus.

Understanding Digital Camera Histograms: Tones and Contrast. Understanding image histograms is probably the single most important concept to become familiar with when working with pictures from a digital camera. A histogram can tell you whether or not your image has been properly exposed, whether the lighting is harsh or flat, and what adjustments will work best. It will not only improve your skills on the computer, but as a photographer as well.

Each pixel in an image has a color which has been produced by some combination of the primary colors red, green, and blue (RGB). Each of these colors can have a brightness value ranging from 0 to 255 for a digital image with a bit depth of 8-bits. The region where most of the brightness values are present is called the "tonal range. " The above image is an example which contains a very broad tonal range, with markers to illustrate where regions in the scene map to brightness levels on the histogram. Lighting is often not as extreme as the last example. S'y retrouver dans la taille des capteurs en photo numérique. Il est admis que plus un capteur est grand, et plus la qualité de l'image sera élevée. Reste à pouvoir se retrouver dans l'univers des mesures des capteurs photos.

La taille exprimée en pouces découle directement de l'age de la TV à tube. Cette mesure se réfère directement au diamètre du cercle dans lequel s'inscrit le capteur sans pour autant en occuper la totalité. La diagonale du capteur est globalement égale au 2/3 de la taille indiquée. Voici un schéma comparatif des principaux format de capteurs disponible sur le marché. Licence : Creative Commons - Author Mofyre Pourquoi choisir un grand capteur ? Mais en quoi un grand capteur est-il meilleur ? Toujours schématiquement, un capteur n'est pas fait d'une seule cellule (photosite) qui capte la lumière, mais de plusieurs millions. Ces éléments éclairent notre position farouchement anti "course aux mégapixels" que se livrent les constructeurs d'appareils photo.
