      @NotBadJefferBoat 8 місяців тому +19

      Actually it kinda does, the aperture just changes the range of how many things can be in focus, not the way you described. As for changing what is in focus, that's just the manual focus ring that's in every single camera lens

      @vicatoren3967 8 місяців тому +33

      @@NotBadJefferBoat Changing how much depth of field blur an image has changes what falls within the acceptable range of “in focus”, thus making the focal plane appear longer or shorter, which I think is what you’re saying. In the video he said that altering the aperture could move the focus from one thing to another, which it can’t.

But every video or the article i've seen was kinda yapping after some point leading to another search. But *this guy* did it, bro wasn't afraid of asking how continuously. And actually went for it. Absolute kudos.

      Ok to be simple thay work like this but instead of picking up visible light thay pick up infra-red.

    • @Bledder
      @Bledder 8 місяців тому

      Thermal cameras see infrared light , not visible light. It’s the same process but the sensors are designed to only see wavelengths bigger than our visible light spectrum

    • @AlexanderRay92
      @AlexanderRay92 8 місяців тому

      Thermal cameras *feel* long-wavelength infrared light by measuring electricity created through *physically heating* the pixels on the sensor, while normal cameras have filters to block infrared and only allow visible light they *see* by measuring the electricity created by light striking the pixels on the sensor.
      Actually you can remove that infrared filter to 'convert' your camera to full-spectrum, then optionally add a different filter so it only sees infrared.
      You'd think your normal camera would then be a thermal camera at that point, and it *kind* of is, though it's not effective because
      (A) it's only sensitive to infrared wavelengths near the visible spectrum, thus missing much of the thermal data
      (B) normal camera lenses these days have many advanced optical coatings to cut down on glare and so on which interfere with IR whereas thermal camera lenses are designed for IR specifically,
      (C) thermal camera sensors use microbolometer sensors where, instead of being like a solar panel that directly responds to light, they're more like little reverse-peltier coolers that produce electricity when the IR physically warms them.

    Or what animals can see when their eyes are not focusing like ours, like they see all that scattered light instead of just the focused one.
    How would it be to simulate seeing everything without focusing it or with the eyes of other animals. How to do this.

    LOVE ur videos. they are so concise and detailed at the same time. and the analogies help a lot! generally i hv to watch around 5 videos, take bits n pieces from each video n put them together to understand the whole concept but now i can just watch one video of urs n understand the whole thing. i really appreciate ur work n efforts. if i could, i would totally donate.

    I spent weeks studying and doing video essays on camera science and STILL can’t comprehend how a sensor works. I mean, I can explain it but I still can’t truly comprehend it 😭
