Cat eyes observations ... - Klaus - 11-27-2018 Just to illustrate the effect when stopping down ... taken at f/1.2, 1.6, 2, 2.8 (from the RF 50). Also, note the shutter effect at f/1.2 (taken at 1/4000sec). RE: Cat eyes observations ... - Brightcolours - 11-27-2018 Do you have an explanation for the "shutter effect"? Did you shoot with full mechanical shutter? And the effect is called "cat's-eye", not "cat eyes" ;-) RE: Cat eyes observations ... - miro - 11-27-2018 Great vignetting test. How much, 3 stops?

Cat’s eyes are caused by mechanical vignetting, which is unavoidable with large aperture lenses consisting of more than 1 element fitted to some sort of barrel Optical vignetting is caused by the unavoidable light fall-off due to light rays falling in at an angle in the image projection by a lens, the cos^4 rule. Kind regards, Wim RE: Cat eyes observations ... - Klaus - 11-28-2018 Regarding the weird effect at f/1.2 and 1/4000sec - thinking about it - it may not have been the shutter but a flickering effect from the (LED-)lights. BTW, multiple "Cat's eye" as shown are surely "cat eyes" ;-) RE: Cat eyes observations ... - miro - 11-28-2018 (11-27-2018, 08:38 PM)wim Wrote: Cat’s eyes are caused by mechanical vignetting, which is unavoidable with large aperture lenses consisting of more than 1 element fitted to some sort of barrel Thank you for the explanation Wim. I was aware only for one type of vignetting https://photographylife.com/what-is-vignetting @ Klaus - Are this light dimmable. If yes - well-known Led manufacture gives the flickering factor RE: Cat eyes observations ... - marcello - 11-29-2018 I thought I'd give it a go ( as I was out late-ish). all images are SOOC and taken with canon 7D mark ii + canon 50mm f 1.8 #7749 @ f1.8 1/60 ISO 400 #7689 @ f1.8 1/80 ISO 1250 #7717 @ f1.8 1/160 ISO 1250 RE: Cat eyes observations ... - davidmanze - 11-29-2018 (11-28-2018, 06:34 AM)Klaus Wrote: Regarding the weird effect at f/1.2 and 1/4000sec - thinking about it - it may not have been the shutter but a flickering effect from the (LED-)lights. No! It's the "cat's eye effect"......... (cat) 's .... belonging to the cat When tested the lens produced cat's eyes towards the edges and borders of the frame..... |
