2. Explain How the Camera Works.

- The first camera was essentially a room with a small hole on one side
wall. Light would pass through that hole, and since it’s reflected in straight lines,
the image would be projected on the opposite wall, upside down. Since that first
camera did not capture very much light. The image was also quite blurry. This
is when the camera lens is used. A camera lens takes all the light rays bouncing
around and uses glass to redirect them to a single point, creating a sharp image.
When all of those light rays meet back together on a digital camera sensor or a
piece of film, they create a sharp image. If the light doesn’t meet at the right
point, the image will look blurry or out-of-focus. A lens’s focusing system moves
the glass piece closer or farther from the sensor or film, allowing the
photographer to adjust the lens so that the object is sharp.
