Chapter 19, Problem 5P
An older camera has a lens with a focal length of 50 mm and uses 36-mm-wide film to record its images. Using this camera, a photographer takes a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge that completely spans the width of the film. Now he wants to take a picture of the bridge using his digital camera with its 12-mm-wide CCD detector. What focal length should this camera’s lens have for the image of the bridge to cover the entire detector?

An older camera has a lens with a focal length of 50 mm and uses 36-mm-wide film. Using this camera, a photographer takes a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge that completely spans the width of the film. Now he wants to take a picture of the bridge using his digital camera with its 12-mm-wide CCD detector. What focal length should this camera’s lens have for the image of the bridge to cover the entire detector?
The CCD detector in a certain camera has a width of 8 mm. The photographer realizes that with the lens she is currently using, she can’t fit the entire landscape she is trying to photograph into her picture. Should she switch to a lens with a longer or shorter focal length? Explain.
You need to record an image on a flat array of CCDs (charge coupled devices—basically a detector). You have two convex lenses mounted in a tube to which you will also attach the CCD plane. The first lens has a focal length of 15 mm and is positioned 25 mm from the sample to be imaged. The second lens, with a focal length of 10 mm, is closer to the CCDs and is 50mm from the first lens. How far away from the second lens will you mount the CCD plane? You must solve this problem using a good diagram and geometry. It is not permissible to use the lens/mirror equation, except to check your answer.
