Lens
> Introduction
|
In case it's not obvious... The lens
is the thing that sticks out on the
front of a video camera.

In
the professional video world, it's not uncommon to purchase
a $10,000 camera and then bolt on a $25,000 lens.
Professionals
understand that the lens is the most important part
of the camera, and proper use of the lens is the key
to successful video photography.
In
brief, the lens captures light and focuses the light
on the part of the camera that receives the image (called
the CCD chip).
