What is History of the Petzval Lens about?
The Petzval lens was created in Austria in 1840 by Joseph Petzval, a mathematician, inventor, and physicist best known for his work in optics. It had a focal length of 85mm and aperture of f/3.4, and was known for its use in portraiture due to producing a characteristic swirly bokeh effect. In modern times, a Kickstarter campaign funded the recreation of the Petzval lens, which received over $1 million in funding.
