LENSES

AIA provides lenses from the industry leaders. Here are a few pointers in selecting lenses:

  • Generally, APO coated/filtered lenses are best for any digital camera or scan back, because they compensate for apochromatic aberrations that result in a yellowish or blue ghosting around edges of high contrast areas;

  • Medium format cameras will only accept dedicated lenses made by the specific manufacturer;

  • Generally, "flat field" lenses are best suited for copy work.
