Objektyvai

Objektyvai is a Lithuanian word that translates to "lenses" in English. This term is primarily used in the context of optics and photography. In optics, an objektyvas refers to a system of one or more lenses that form an image. These lenses are designed to refract light in a specific way, focusing it onto a sensor or film to capture a visual representation of a scene. The properties of an objektyvas, such as its focal length, aperture, and optical design, determine the characteristics of the image produced, including magnification, depth of field, and image quality.

In photography, the term objektyvas is virtually synonymous with the camera lens. Photographers choose different objektyvai to achieve various artistic and technical effects. For instance, wide-angle objektyvai are used to capture expansive landscapes, while telephoto objektyvai are employed to magnify distant subjects. Macro objektyvai are specialized for close-up photography. The quality of the objektyvas is often a significant factor in the overall quality of photographic images. Beyond photography, the concept of an objektyvas can also be applied more broadly to describe any optical instrument that uses lenses to manipulate light, such as telescopes or microscopes, though the specific term "objektyvai" in Lithuanian is most commonly associated with camera lenses.
