This paper investigates the use of fish-eye optics as an alternative to the conventional super wide-angle lens for vision metrology. The fish-eye design, whilst still retro-focus in construction, rejects the design constraints of rectilinear imaging in exchange for more even illumination across the image format and the expectation of reduced lens aberration effects. 1, record 2, English, - fish%20eye%20optics

Objectif [...] fish-eye : Il donne une image circulaire inscrite dans le format 24x36. Son angle de champ est de l'ordre de 160 à 180° et donne une perspective curviligne ressemblant à ce que l'on peut voir dans un judas de porte. Cet objectif permet de faire des effets de style plus que de rendre compte objectivement d’un paysage. 3, record 2, French, - optique%20%26oelig%3Bil%20de%20poisson

A lens with a short focal length. Lenses of this type do not cover the diagonal of the negative. They produce a smaller image, at the same distance, than those yielded by normal or long-focus lenses but cover a greater part of that image. 1, record 3, English, - short%2Dfocus%20lens

Designations like "wide angle" or "narrow angle" are not necessarily synonymous with "short focus" and "long focus", as the latter terms refer to the focal length of the lens relative to the picture format. 3, record 3, English, - short%2Dfocus%20lens

Pour une longueur focale donnée, l'objet photographié a une dimension de reproduction constante, quel que soit le format, et c'est seulement le champ de l'image qui s’élargit en même temps que grandit ce dernier. Autrement dit, pour une distance focale déterminée, l'objet photographié avec des appareils de formats différents aura à une distance constante une dimension constante; seule l'étendue du paysage qui l'entoure variera. On emploie couramment les expressions suivantes : objectif de courte longueur focale, de grande longueur focale, etc. 1, record 3, French, - objectif%20de%20courte%20longueur%20focale
