← HistoryWhich focusing outcome regularly impacted Alhazen's early camera obscura observations?
A)Increased spherical aberration artifacts✓
B)Reduced chromatic focal blurring
C)Minimized diffraction fringe effects
D)Eliminated coma distortion entirely
💡 Explanation
Increased spherical aberration appeared because light rays farther from the pinhole's 'optical axis', travel through steeper angles undergo greater refraction (Spherical Aberration). Therefore blur appeared rather than a focused images, rather than the ideal point-like projection predicted by rectilinear models.
