Scheimpflug Principle - Camera Movements

Camera Movements

Tilt and swing are available on most view cameras, often on both the front and rear standards, and on some small- and medium format cameras with special lenses that partially emulate view-camera movements. Such lenses are often called tilt/shift or “perspective control” lenses. For some camera models there are adapters that enable movements with some of the manufacturer’s regular lenses.

Famous quotes containing the words camera and/or movements:

    The camera introduces us to unconscious optics as does psychoanalysis to unconscious impulses.
    Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)

    In a universe that is all gradations of matter, from gross to fine to finer, so that we end up with everything we are composed of in a lattice, a grid, a mesh, a mist, where particles or movements so small we cannot observe them are held in a strict and accurate web, that is nevertheless nonexistent to the eyes we use for ordinary living—in this system of fine and finer, where then is the substance of a thought?
    Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
