Appreciation through Understanding
« Chapters 4, 5, and 6 | Main | Chapter 8 »
With this post I am presenting:
Chapter 7: What is
behind the rules of optics?
(pdf, 98KB)
This chapter deals with modern physics and the rules of optics, and it provides a glimpse of the strange universe we live in. It is far removed from practical photography, but it does introduce ideas that are useful in understanding optics in general and, in particular, the interference effects we will encounter with lens coatings. If this kind of thing does not interest you, feel free to skip ahead to lens design issues, etc.
