A Camera Lens Made from an Iceberg

&gt; I needed to find pure ice.<p>No you didn&#x27;t. You could have done this with warm distilled water, then frozen, at home and had better results. But I suppose it&#x27;s a good excuse to go to Iceland :) (If there was ever a need for an excuse!)

Tangential note that I thought was interesting: I have an eye condition called Keratoconus. It developed mostly on one eye before I had a procedure done to stop it from progressing, but my vision on that one eye is affected permanently.<p>People tend to wonder why I don&#x27;t wear glasses, and I tell them it&#x27;s because they don&#x27;t really help since I don&#x27;t &quot;blurry&quot;, I see &quot;smudged&quot;. It&#x27;s as if you took a picture with a camera with long exposure and moved it, but not quite.<p>The pictures taken with this lens are a surprisingly good approximation of how I see with that one eye (perhaps sans the whitewash).

I am somehow disappointed that the lens was actually just &quot;your average lens size&quot;, and not really ... an iceberg infront of a camera.<p>I don&#x27;t know what I expected.

Why is this surprising at all? Any transparent material having a refractive index larger than air can be made to work as a lens. Pinhole cameras are much more interesting than this -- there the phenomena isn&#x27;t refraction. An even more interesting lens is the Frensel lens [1].<p>[1]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Fresnel_lens" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Fresnel_lens</a>

I wasn&#x27;t expecting the video to be so professionally made. Before I watched I thought &quot;prepare myself for grainy, shakey video&quot;, then as I started watching I was thinking &quot;he must have a go pro&quot; and then &quot;hell this is good&quot; and finally &quot;ah OK seem like he is a professional video guy&quot;

Reminds me of my high school photography class, where we made camera obscuras (pinhole cameras) out of an oatmeal container. Did it make the best-quality images? No. But it was still one of the more memorable projects I did in high school.

Making optical grade ice is not trivial. Not hard but I never did get good results.<p>Start with good water.<p>Freeze in a gradient(top down is easiest) half of your ice will still be garbage.<p>Explicitly: by gradient I mean put it in an insulated container so that it freezes starting at the top and ending at the bottom.

It gives a nice soft, watery focus, it appears. :)

Couldn&#x27;t you just make distilled water clear ice at home, or does it need high pressure to remove aberrations?

That video is the definition of overwrought

Ha, how wonderfully cute (can&#x27;t say I&#x27;d have ever thought of doing it). All he needs to do now is turn it into a multistage lens with multiple elements and invent a melt-proof quarter-wave like coating to correct the aberrations. :-)<p>Apropos the lens museum, I&#x27;ve great difficulty in chucking out lenses that no longer fit any camera that I now own. To me, lenses are precision instruments and its their &#x27;exactness&#x27; I don&#x27;t want to see escape off into a world of higher entropy.

Beautiful video! I love the idea of an ephemeral camera: custom made parts for a specific time and a specific place.

Seriously?<p>Pinhole lenses can do lots better:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.flickr.com&#x2F;photos&#x2F;130436300@N07&#x2F;44672960900" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.flickr.com&#x2F;photos&#x2F;130436300@N07&#x2F;44672960900</a>

The lens is not very sharp.
