Well what is it. The only thing I remeber is
'contrast' is needed to see.
If you've ever used a view camera, you'd know. Basically, the object
that you're photographing is not parallel to the film focal plane.
That means only one area on the object will be in sharp focus--the
nearer and farther parts will be out-of-focus. You could stop way
down, but that may not be practical or sufficient. So you tilt the
film plane sufficiently to bring everything into focus.
And with that, I'm through with the OT stuff on this thread.
