Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of camera lens testing, and in particular to a camera lens rapid focus test system; in addition, the present invention also relates to a camera lens rapid focus test method. Background Art
[0002] There are many types of cameras, including waterproof digital cameras, and their basic working principles are the same; converting optical image signals into electrical signals for storage or transmission. When we shoot an object, the light reflected from the object is collected by the camera lens and focused on the light-receiving surface of the camera device (such as the target surface of the camera tube). The camera device then converts the light into electrical energy, which is a "video signal". The photoelectric signal is very weak and needs to be amplified by a pre-amplifier circuit, and then processed and adjusted by various circuits. The final standard signal can be sent to a recording medium such as a video recorder for recording, or transmitted through a transmission system or sent to a monitor for display.
[0003] The focal length is fixed, and the scene in front of you cannot be brought closer or farther away. The advantage of fixed focus over zoom is that the image quality is better and the aperture is easier to increase. The disadvantage is that it cannot be zoomed, and the photographer can only rely on the movement of the composition. For example, the commonly used 50mm lens is a fixed focus lens. The focal length refers to the position where the image is focused after parallel light hits the lens.
[0004] In actual use, we need to test the camera lens after focusing to see whether the error between the actual focus value (actual focal length value) and the theoretical focus value (theoretical focal length value) is within a reasonable range; if it is not within a reasonable range, the lens needs to be re-focused to ensure the uniform quality of the factory lens. Summary of the invention
