Scheimpflug principle

The Scheimpflug principle is a description of the geometric relationship between the orientation of the plane of focus, the lens plane, and the image plane of an optical system when the lens plane is
Tilt-lens photo of a model train. The lens was swung towards right, in order to keep the plane of focus along the train. The sensor plane, the lens plane and the plane along the train all intersect to the right of the camera.
Figure 1. With a normal camera, when the subject is not parallel to the image plane, only a small region is in focus.

A view camera is a large-format camera. View cameras were originally analog cameras in which the lens forms an inverted image on a ground-glass screen directly at the film plane. The image is viewed,

…and the image plane of an optical system (such as a camera) when the lens plane is not parallel to the image plane. It is applicable to the use of some camera movements on a view camera. It is also the principle used in corneal tomography, often performed prior to refractive eye surgery such as LASIK, and used for early…
