JX: /* Entrance Pupil Measurements */ Tamron 11-18, Tamron 17-50, Sigma 30

Wouldn't it be great if everyone entered their values for their [[No-parallax point| NPP / Nodal Point / Entrance Pupil]] for lens and camera combinations.

To cater for all the different camera bodies and lenses, the tables have been split into 3 parts:

*The '''[[#Tripod Mount Measurements|first table]]''' shows the position of the tripod mount in relation to the lens axis. This is easy to measure and is dependent only on the camera body.
*The '''[[#Entrance Pupil Measurements|second table]]''' shows the actual entrance pupil distance which is only dependent on the lens itself. Note that the [[No-parallax point|NPP]] for [[Special issues with fisheye lenses|fisheye]] lenses is not constant over the image circle's [[Field of View|FoV]], so you will sometimes find different NPP values depending on the angle where your images overlap.
*The '''[[#Number of pics for 360°|third table]]''' shows the number if pics neccessay for a full 360° coverage and the rotation angle between shots.

Use as much as possible actual measurements rather than the reading on your [[panorama head]], unless your are sure these are the same.

*To calculate the Entrance pupil distance add the Tripod Mount Length (L1) from the camera and the Entrance Pupil Length (L2) from the lens. So for example for a Canon 300d and a 10-22mm at 10mm, the total Entrance pupil distance from the tripod mount is 40mm + 66mm = 106mm

*For these '''''Focal Length''''' values the actual focus is set to infinity (<math>\infty</math>)

Entrance Pupil Database

2008-04-14T16:26:06Z

JX: /* Entrance Pupil Measurements */ Oops.

Wouldn't it be great if everyone entered their values for their [[No-parallax point| NPP / Nodal Point / Entrance Pupil]] for lens and camera combinations.
Some searching on the web will find a lot of people saying they want to start to create a database of some kind, but have not seen anything substantial so far (correct me if I am wrong).

Please enter your own values if they are not listed.

Thanks,
--[[User:Korffr|Richard Korff]] 11:12, 13 May 2005 (EDT)

To cater for all the different camera bodies and lenses, the tables have been split into 3 parts:

*The '''[[#Tripod Mount Measurements|first table]]''' shows the position of the tripod mount in relation to the lens axis. This is easy to measure and is dependent only on the camera body.
*The '''[[#Entrance Pupil Measurements|second table]]''' shows the actual entrance pupil distance which is only dependent on the lens itself. Note that the [[No-parallax point|NPP]] for [[Special issues with fisheye lenses|fisheye]] lenses is not constant over the image circle's [[Field of View|FoV]], so you will sometimes find different NPP values depending on the angle where your images overlap.
*The '''[[#Number of pics for 360°|third table]]''' shows the number if pics neccessay for a full 360° coverage and the rotation angle between shots.

Use as much as possible actual measurements rather than the reading on your [[panorama head]], unless your are sure these are the same.

JX: /* Entrance Pupil Measurements */

Wouldn't it be great if everyone entered their values for their [[No-parallax point| NPP / Nodal Point / Entrance Pupil]] for lens and camera combinations.
Some searching on the web will find a lot of people saying they want to start to create a database of some kind, but have not seen anything substantial so far (correct me if I am wrong).

Please enter your own values if they are not listed.

Thanks,

To cater for all the different camera bodies and lenses, the tables have been split into 3 parts:

*The '''[[#Tripod Mount Measurements|first table]]''' shows the position of the tripod mount in relation to the lens axis. This is easy to measure and is dependent only on the camera body.
*The '''[[#Entrance Pupil Measurements|second table]]''' shows the actual entrance pupil distance which is only dependent on the lens itself. Note that the [[No-parallax point|NPP]] for [[Special issues with fisheye lenses|fisheye]] lenses is not constant over the image circle's [[Field of View|FoV]], so you will sometimes find different NPP values depending on the angle where your images overlap.
*The '''[[#Number of pics for 360°|third table]]''' shows the number if pics neccessay for a full 360° coverage and the rotation angle between shots.

Use as much as possible actual measurements rather than the reading on your [[panorama head]], unless your are sure these are the same.

To enter a line for your combination, edit the page by clicking edit at the top of the screen (you may need to create an account or sign-in first), and edit the table below.

*To calculate the Entrance pupil distance add the Tripod Mount Length (L1) from the camera and the Entrance Pupil Length (L2) from the lens. So for example for a Canon 300d and a 10-22mm at 10mm, the total Entrance pupil distance from the tripod mount is 40mm + 66mm = 106mm

*For these '''''Focal Length''''' values the actual focus is set to infinity (<math>\infty</math>)

JX: /* Focal Length / # of pics for 360° / Degree between pics */

I am confused by the terms "horizontal" and "off-axial" adjustment.

It seems like they should be "horizontal" and "vertical".

And these depend on camera orientation. The distance between camera base and lens axis is "horizontal" only if the camera is in portrait orientation. In landscape, that same distance is "vertical".

Pictures should make this clear.

Perhaps it would be even more clear to refer to these offsets as "basal" and "lateral", or some such.

Is there a standard nomenclature for these things? Where is it defined?

--Rik

------
Rik,

I agree with you. Initially I had x, y and z but that would probably be just as arbitrary.
I have not had the time to take pictures of the setup to show what I mean.
The descriptions I had in mind are based on a portrait setup.

I am not sure if there are standard definition for it. I was not able to find it.
Any help or suggestions would be helpfull.

== Number of picture for 360 / Degrees between picture ==

Peter,

Thanks for adding your measurements.

I have a question. I thought the degrees between the pictures would only be applicable to Fisheye lenses ? Does that also apply to normal lenses ? Or is the difference only noticable in Fisheye lenses, and too small have an impact on normal lenses.

Thanks,

Richard

Hi Richard,

Sorry, I don't know if there is a difference between fisheye and normal lenses. For me it is more an information about the number of pictures needed for 360 degrees with enough overlap. These values are for portrait orientation. Probably we should make a third table with additional things like this then put all the informations in one table, isn't it?

== Tripod Mount Length L1 ==
The text for this measurment includes "For fixed lens camera's this column is not applicable." Is this really true ? A lot of "Fixed" lens cameras do allow the addition of an adaptor tube which then permits the additional lenses to be added - whilst this implies that such cameras are not "Fixed lens" the way it reads now I suspect puts people off inserting a measurment for cameras which include a Fixed lens.

Unless there is another reason I would propose to change the text to read;
"Looking at the bottom of the camera, the distance between the middle of the tripod mount to the base of the lens base, or base for adaptor tube. For fixed lens camera's which do not allow use of adaptors this column is not applicable."

Thoughts ?

Geoff

OK well no comments after several weeks so, changes made and the Fuji S7000 is listed with the length of its adaptor tube as well as an example

Geoff

== Focal Length / # of pics for 360° / Degree between pics ==

The number of pictures for 360° and the angle between two pictures doesn't depend only on focal length... It also depends on the size of the sensor. For instance the angle is roughly the same for 28mm on an EOS 5D (24x36 sensor) and 17mm on an EOS 350D (APS sensor).

I suggest to put this information to a separate table. [[User:JX|JX]] 16:46, 10 April 2008 (CEST)
