Hi,
I need to know whether Refraction changes current focal length of a camera..I have a camera focused at the bottom of a water tank(without water). After filling water to the tank i cannot see the bottom anymore focused..I need to calculate how much should I move the camera vertically to see the bottom again focused..(camera is not perpendicular to the water surface, 45°)
I think this can be solved using Snell's law and ray tracing..but I don't know how to go on with it..
I'm not a physics person and my high schools physics are bit rusty now..![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I'm really grateful, if somebody can tell me how to go on with this..or point out relevant literature in internet..or book..
Thanks in advance..
