With 35 mm film cameras, the 35 mm refers to the film size, not to be confused with the lens size. A 50 mm lens is usually considered the normal or neutral size, with a magnification factor of one. A 50 mm lens has no magnification. So, as the size (millimeters) of the lens become larger, the magnification of the image becomes greater. A 100 mm lens gives 2 times magnification, and makes the subject appear 2 times closer and gives less viewing area; a 200 mm lens gives 4 times magnification, and so on.
A 25 mm lens would make the subject look farther away by a factor of 2 and give a wider viewing area. Fisheye lenses, usually about 8 to 15 mm, give a very wide view and negative magnification. The increased area appears as a distorted "fisheye" view.
Digital cameras have electronic image sensors which are usually smaller than the area of film exposed in a 35 mm camera, and lenses will have a different magnifing effect. It is not a problem, though, as the manufacturer almost always gives a calculation of the equivalence of the lens with the digital camera compared to a 35 mm film camera, and calculates the magnification of the lens of the digital camera.
In standard film camera reference which is commonly used, a 50 mm lens equals a neutral value, or 1x magnification, so a 12x lens would be 600 mm.
6-24 magnification, 50 mm lens
It depends on the actual focal length. For a 35 mm format lens, 200 mm is about 4x magnification, to get 20x you'd need a 1000 mm lens. For smaller formats, such as 8 mm or a camcorder, find the focal length for normal view, then multiply by 20.
That's 80 power.
The total magnification of a light microscope with a 40x objective lens is calculated by multiplying the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece lens. Assuming a standard eyepiece magnification of 10x, the total magnification would be 400x (40x objective lens * 10x eyepiece lens = 400x total magnification).
The total magnification of a microscope is equal to the magnification of the eyepiece lens multiplied by the magnification of the objective lens. For example, if the eyepiece has a magnification of 10x and the objective lens has a magnification of 40x, the total magnification would be 10x * 40x = 400x.
The total magnification of a microscope is determined by multiplying the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece lens. For example, if the objective lens has a magnification of 10x and the eyepiece lens has a magnification of 20x, the total magnification would be 10x * 20x = 200x.
The magnification of the eyepiece lens in a microscope is typically 10x. This means that when combined with the magnification of the objective lens, the total magnification of the microscope is calculated by multiplying the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnification of the objective lens.
The total magnification is equal to the magnification of the eyepiece multiplied by the magnification of the objective lens. So in this case the objective lens would need to be 100X.
The magnification of a compound light microscope is determined by multiplying the magnification of the ocular lens (eyepiece) by the magnification of the objective lens. For example, if the ocular lens has a magnification of 10x and the objective lens has a magnification of 40x, the total magnification would be 10x * 40x = 400x.
To calculate the total magnification of a microscope, you multiply the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece. For example, if the objective lens has a magnification of 40x and the eyepiece has a magnification of 10x, the total magnification would be 40x * 10x = 400x.
