kuvakentästä

kuvakentästä is a Finnish term that translates to "image field" or "picture field." It generally refers to the visible area within a camera's lens or the display of a digital device. In photography and optics, kuvakenttä describes the extent of the scene that is captured by the camera sensor or projected onto a viewing surface. The size and shape of the kuvakenttä are determined by the focal length of the lens, the size of the sensor or film, and the distance to the subject. A wider kuvakenttä captures a broader panorama, while a narrower kuvakenttä focuses on a smaller, more distant section of the scene. In digital imaging, the term also relates to the actual pixel data that forms the image. Understanding the kuvakenttä is crucial for composition, framing, and determining the perspective of a photograph or visual representation. It influences how much of the surrounding environment is included in the final image.
