So knowing that convex lenses causes light to converge and concave lenses causes then to diverge, why does converging light create a larger image than diverging light?
Magnification means we want to see more of a certain part of an object, meaning we want to enlarge that section and have it cover up as much of our image sensor (camera, eyes) as possible, right?
So if there was an image sensor, then wouldn't the diverging light from a concave lens would cover more area on the image sensor than the converging light of the convex lens and thus create magnification?
