Question

Turning the barrel of a 50-mm-focal-length lens on a manual-focus camera moves the lens closer to or farther from the sensor to focus on objects at different distances. The lens has a stated range of focus from 0.70 m infinity.
How far does the lens move between these two extremes?

    Answer:

    Explanation:

    To focus object at .7m , the image distance can be measured as follows

    object distance u = .7m

    focal length f = .05 m

    image distance v = ?

    from lens formula

    \frac{1}{v} -\frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f}

    \frac{1}{v} +\frac{1}{.7} = \frac{1}{.05}

    \frac{1}{v} =\frac{1}{.05} -\frac{1}{.7}

    v = .054 m

    = 54 mm

    when the object is at infinity , image is formed at focus ie at distance of

    50 mm .

    So lens position from sensor  where image is formed , varies from 54 mm to 50 mm .
