Discover the world of Fresnel lenses! Originally designed for lighthouses, these lenses have found extensive use in photography and cinematography due to their adaptability and capacity to focus light.
Unlike convex lenses, they are lighter yet retain essential features that guide light efficiently over long distances. They were refined by Augustine Fresnel in the 1820s and are perfect for fashion and background lighting as well as creating precise spotlights.
Their advantage lies in the ability to move the lens or light source, allowing for modifications to focus and beam. Moreover, they offer a polished gradation of light that enhances the professional appearance of photographs and videos.
Compared to honeycomb grids, they provide greater versatility and can create a wide flood to tight spotlight beam with a smooth gradient.
