Hello I was wondering, i have heard that prime lenses (=fixed focal lenght= you cannot "zoom" - for example just 50mm) have superior visual quality in comparison to "zoom lenses" (lenses that have variable focal length, for example from 18mm to 55mm) and probably even more superior visual quality of the final photos in…
I never did an exact comparison but my guess you would be perfectly fine with your default zoom lens once you are not actually using zoom within a single photo series. Any time I tried to use varying focal distance photos it always ended in artifacts or interruptions in point cloud generated . Reality capture would be…
I have not that much of personal experience with different lenses. But I find info published by the site quite credible as well as their test image comparison. . You could check it yourself . Just keep in mind that what you see in test pictures done of tripod in studio lighting is not what would you get of hands in a…
LOl thanks... thats quite unexpected... a lot of people spout out (talk nonsense without thinking of testing it themselves) that prime lenses are better even for photogrammetry... LOL... who knew its not the case...? :-) Could your example be just one of? Like that it applies only to the specific lenes listed...?
Those blur lab tests I found at imagine-resource shows that while $1k prime lens (right) demonstrates amazing sharpness at f4 when it comes to f16, the actual aperture you would use for photogrammetry series. it's kind of other way around and zoom lens have a slight edge over prime one.…
