I do not know where to ask this question: For a lens (converging or Diverging), How do i know if magnification is positive or negative?
A magnification lens is a type of optical lens that is used to increase the size of an object by bending or refracting light passing through it.
Magnification lenses work by altering the path of light rays passing through them, causing them to converge and form a magnified image. This is achieved through the lens' curvature and refractive index.
There are several types of magnification lenses, including convex lenses, concave lenses, and compound lenses. Convex lenses are thicker in the middle and used to magnify objects, while concave lenses are thinner in the middle and used to reduce magnification. Compound lenses are made up of multiple lenses and can be used for different levels of magnification.
Magnification refers to the increase in size of an object, while zoom refers to the ability to change the focal length of a lens to bring an object closer or further away. Magnification can be achieved through different methods, such as using a magnification lens or digitally zooming in on an image.
The right magnification lens depends on the purpose and specific requirements of your project. Factors to consider include the object size, desired level of magnification, and the type of lens needed. It is best to consult with an expert or do thorough research to determine the best magnification lens for your needs.
