The key to the single-lens reflex camera is a mirror. Light coming in through the camera lens is reflected upward by this mirror to a viewing screen, then through a five-sided prism that turns the inverted image right-side up and right-side round and delivers it to the eye. When a picture is taken, the mirror snaps up momentarily ... permitting light to strike the film at the back of the camera. Through-the-lens viewing produces an image virtually identical with that produced on the film. 6, record 12, English, - single%2Dlens%20reflex%20camera

Monocular vision is vision in which each eye is used separately. By using the eyes in this way, as opposed by binocular vision, the field of view is increased, while depth perception is limited. The eyes are usually positioned on opposite sides of the animals head giving them the ability to see two objects at once. 1, record 18, English, - monocular%20vision
