Thank you, this is the best Scheimpflug Principle explanation I have seen. I had a Horseman LX 4'5" camera 10 years ago but today I have 135mm NIKON DSLR cameras and PC lenses 24mm,45mm and 85mm and still some analogue MF cameras. I will get the 19mm PC lens in thefuture if I find a used one.
@8:50 you identify the following three planes: Film Plane Lens Plane Plane of Focus However, isn't the line labeled "Plane of Focus" really the Subject Plane? Also, aren't we using the Scheimpflug Principe to adjust the Film Plane and the Lens Plane in order to help the Plane of Focus match the Subject Plane?
You are correct, it is the subject plane. But since people talk about "focusing on the subject", I informally called the subject plane the focus plan. Sorry if anyone found that confusing.
Why did you use the rear standard / film plane to focus? This resulted in your verticals not being vertical, and would of changed the relative size of the rear or near points that you are focusing on.
It was easier to illustrate the principle in the animation by moving the film plane as then the focal points remain fixed. I wanted the real-life example to mimic the animation.
