Because mobile lenses typically put the stop in front of L1.

@Docno, it was probably after fish. I'm not saying this wasn't a harrowing experience for the fisherman. I'm saying that the statistics tell us that the chances of this turning deadly was vanishing...

MoonMadness Between 1580 and 2017, there were just 9 cases of maco shark attacks recorded, and only one was fatal.

This guy had a much higher chance of being killed by the drone than by that shark.

100 million sharks killed by humans each year. Around 10 humans killed by sharks each year.

The post-Jaws shark scaremongering is ridiculous. The cold-hearted, ruthless predator is us!

We already had the pre-orders for those first production units.

We were under no illusions. (e)film was a limited opportunity bridge product. It turned out that opportunity was shorter than...

I was the 4th employee, and named the company. I'm providing you with some information with nothing to be gained at this point. It's up to you what you do with this information.

Roland, the first gen product was a few months from shipping.

Yes, please not again!

Roger, no one bought Silicon Film to keep it off the market. We ran out of cash after the dot com crash, and it was impossible to raise VC money for technology companies at that time.

The assets...

Silicon Film failed because we ran out of cash during a time where it was impossible to raise tech money (after the dot com bust). The first generation product did indeed have a significant crop...

There was demand for (e)film, it just didn't make it to market before Silicon Film Technologies ran out of cash, at a time when VC money for tech wasn't available (the dot com bubble burst, and...

Are there any applications that can produce depth from focus, and synthetic depth-cued lens blur? I know there are a number of focus stacking apps, but I'm looking for depth from focus where a ...

Probably a recruitment video. I've visited a lot of Japanese imaging company offices, and many of them are not very pleasant. Working in this office, compared to those, would definitely be...

No. Sony has a number of its own fabs too (including one purchased from Toshiba). You can find any number of references to those fabs (including one they bought from Toshiba), but here's one...

The new GoPro Pass Through Door for the HERO9 Black is weather resistant. https://gopro.com/en/us/shop/mounts-accessories/usb-pass-through-door/ADCOD-001.html

@Jefftan, Leica will review the lens designs and provide some feedback. That's the extent of their participation.

It's not a Leica optic. It's designed and manufactured by a Chinese company. Leica just sells their brand name.

I have never heard of this failure! You can upload your video to YouTube as a private video (or whichever setting it is that means it doesn't show up in searches, feeds, etc.) and share that link ...

It's crazy when you can see every pore in a full torso + head portrait like this!

I have a sample of Vantablack, but it's only a square of about 30mm on a side, so it's not exactly much use for photoshoots. Maybe for some extreme macro work?

This fabric looks great though....
