3 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 3 Optical Format Factor: The Basics lens image Ø x y x y Ø Ø normal imager widescreen imager imager Ø AR x y S35 31 4:324.9 18.7 1-inch 16 4:312.89.6 1-inch 1616:913.97.8 2/3-inch 11 4:3 8.86.6 2/3-inch 1116:9 9.65.4 1/2-inch 8 4:3 6.44.8 1/2-inch 816:9 7.04.0 1/3-inch 6 4:3 4.83.6 1/3-inch 616:9 5.22.9

4 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 4 The Format Factor Divide equivalent factors of one format by another’s. e.g., 2/3-inch imager 11-mm diagonal divided by 1/3-inch imager 6-mm diagonal yields a format factor of 1.83.

5 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 5 Acceptance Angle Based on focal length and imager size: Based on focal length and imager size: 13.5 mm lens, 16:9 aspect ratio, horizontal: 13.5 mm lens, 16:9 aspect ratio, horizontal: 55° – 1-inch (wide angle) – 10.3’ shot at 10’ 55° – 1-inch (wide angle) – 10.3’ shot at 10’ 39° – 2/3-inch (normal) – 7.1’ shot at 10’ 39° – 2/3-inch (normal) – 7.1’ shot at 10’ 29° – 1/2-inch (tighter) – 5.2’ shot at 10’ 29° – 1/2-inch (tighter) – 5.2’ shot at 10’ 22° – 1/3-inch (tighter still) – 3.9’ shot at 10’ 22° – 1/3-inch (tighter still) – 3.9’ shot at 10’ O I DF O I – = – D F

6 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 6 Applying the Format Factor 13.5-mm lens in 2/3-inch format divided by 1.83 yields 7.4-mm lens in 1/3-inch format for equivalent acceptance angle. 13.5-mm lens in 2/3-inch format divided by 1.83 yields 7.4-mm lens in 1/3-inch format for equivalent acceptance angle. 4.8-mm lens in 2/3-inch format yields 2.6- mm lens in 1/3-inch format, but that focal length is not available in that format. 4.8-mm lens in 2/3-inch format yields 2.6- mm lens in 1/3-inch format, but that focal length is not available in that format. Failure of the Format Factor

7 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 7 Sensitivity Based on individual Based on individual sensor (not imager) size: Range of 1/3-inch sensor (“pixel”) sizes: Range of 1/3-inch sensor (“pixel”) sizes: 2/3-inch comparison: 2/3-inch comparison: full output 1/4 output 1280 x 720 1920x1080 2/3-inch 1440x1080 960 x 1080 960x540 2/3-inch 1920 x 1080

8 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 8 Applying the Format Factor For equivalent H & V resolutions,f/4 in 2/3-inch format divided by 1.83 yields f/2.2 for equivalent sensitivity. For equivalent H & V resolutions,f/4 in 2/3-inch format divided by 1.83 yields f/2.2 for equivalent sensitivity. f/1.8 in 2/3-inch format yields f/1 in 1/3- inch, but that aperture is not available. f/1.8 in 2/3-inch format yields f/1 in 1/3- inch, but that aperture is not available. Dynamic range is proportional to sensor size, so even wider apertures are limited. Dynamic range is proportional to sensor size, so even wider apertures are limited. Failures of the Format Factor

9 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 9 Depth of Field Range of distances appearing to be in focus with the lens focused at some particular distance Range of distances appearing to be in focus with the lens focused at some particular distance Complex equations based on f-stop*, focal- length*, shooting distance, and “circle of confusion*” (visually indistinguishable from a dot) Complex equations based on f-stop*, focal- length*, shooting distance, and “circle of confusion*” (visually indistinguishable from a dot) * format-factor-related

10 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 10 Depth of Field Less allows attention direction Less allows attention direction Is more DOF better for news? Is more DOF better for news?

11 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 11 Applying the Format-Factor At DoF-related distances*, for same viewed resolution & framing, DoF is that of a different format with the f-number and focal length adjusted by the format factor: At DoF-related distances*, for same viewed resolution & framing, DoF is that of a different format with the f-number and focal length adjusted by the format factor: 2/3-inch 14.6-mm f/3.3 = 1/3-inch 8-mm f/1.8 2/3-inch 14.6-mm f/3.3 = 1/3-inch 8-mm f/1.8 * not macro, not in the hyperfocal range 2/3-inch 6-mm f/1.8 = 1/3-inch 3.3-mm f/1, which is not available 2/3-inch 6-mm f/1.8 = 1/3-inch 3.3-mm f/1, which is not available *except microlens aperture issue Failure of the Format-Factor

12 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 12 Introducing Contrast Do you see a curve across the top?

13 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 13 Modulation Chart contrast resolution

14 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 14 Modulation Chart contrast resolution curve varies with retinal angle and observer

15 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 15 Modulation Transfer Function contrast resolution “sharpness” is proportional to the square of the area under the curve curve shape varies due to such factors as filtering, diffraction, etc.

17 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 17 Understanding Diffraction Airy disk MTF reduced, resolution unaffected

18 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 18 Diffraction and MTF Monochromatic diffraction-based MTF Monochromatic diffraction-based MTF MDMTF = 1 - (1.22 x λ x f x lp/mm) MDMTF = 1 - (1.22 x λ x f x lp/mm) For diffraction-limited resolution: For diffraction-limited resolution: MDMTF = 0 MDMTF = 0 Rayleigh Criterion: Airy disks one radius apart Rayleigh Criterion: Airy disks one radius apart almost 100% MTF

22 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 22 Lens Characteristics vs. F-stop Lower f-stop: less diffraction, more sensitivity Lower f-stop: less diffraction, more sensitivity Higher f-stop: less aberrations, ghosts, flare, vignetting, better relative light distribution Higher f-stop: less aberrations, ghosts, flare, vignetting, better relative light distribution Sweet-spot: 2-3 stops below maximum open Sweet-spot: 2-3 stops below maximum open simple-lens aberrations reduced in smaller formats simple-lens aberrations reduced in smaller formats Do lens corrections result in the 2-3 rule of thumb? Do lens corrections result in the 2-3 rule of thumb? If so, small formats may lack the sweet spot. If so, small formats may lack the sweet spot.

23 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 23 Lens Quality & the Format Factor Lens MTF often uses line-pairs/millimeter (lp/mm) as the resolution axis Lens MTF often uses line-pairs/millimeter (lp/mm) as the resolution axis Smaller formats have fewer mm so higher lp/mm at equivalent image resolution and, therefore, need higher-quality lenses for equivalent MTF Smaller formats have fewer mm so higher lp/mm at equivalent image resolution and, therefore, need higher-quality lenses for equivalent MTF 100 lp/mm in 2/3-inch format x 1.83 format-factor yields 183 lp/mm in 1/3-inch 100 lp/mm in 2/3-inch format x 1.83 format-factor yields 183 lp/mm in 1/3-inch

26 Mark Schubin, HPA Technology Retreat, 2006 February 23 26Conclusions The format factor allows conversion of focal length, aperture, and depth of field between formats, but it fails when the limits of the lens/prism are reached. The format factor allows conversion of focal length, aperture, and depth of field between formats, but it fails when the limits of the lens/prism are reached. Dynamic range is based on sensor area. Dynamic range is based on sensor area. Lenses for smaller-format cameras need to be better than lenses for larger-format cameras, by the format factor, for equivalent MTF. Lenses for smaller-format cameras need to be better than lenses for larger-format cameras, by the format factor, for equivalent MTF. And, now, heeeeeeere’s Larry! And, now, heeeeeeere’s Larry!
