    It does. The whole question is: what's the finest detail a device is able to deliver? Everything a photographic lens does is "tie" the incoming rays of light together and put them the correct spot on the sensor or film. While a bad lens would make two black dots with a little bit of white space between them appear as one while a better lens would deliver both dots and the spaces. The better lens RESOLVES the incoming light into a more appropriate "package" that contains more information.

  • @megatryn
    @megatryn 11 лет назад +1

    It's pretty large, considering the 500mm focal length (F). Remember, it's a function: The diameter (Ø) of the aperture in a F/4 lens when the focal length is F=500mm, is: Ø=500mm/4=125mm.
    In comparison, the diameter (Ø) of the 85mm F/1,2 is a measly: Ø=85mm/1,2=70,83mm.
    For a 85mm lens to have the same diameter aperture as the 500mm F/4 (Ø=125mm), it would have to be a 85mm F/0,68 (!) Ø=85mm/0,68=125mm
    In other words: F/4 on a 500mm lens is huge!

    I think he meant the front element size, which divides the focal length with the maximum aperture. So the lens in this video actually has a larger front element (and therefore aperture [hole]) than my Canon 100mm f2.8. But yes, my 100mm is quicker than the 500mm mentioned in this video.
