Determining effective f-stop

Post by elf »

I ran across this patent when looking for the definition of effective f-stop: http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/4531835/claims.html. It would seem that you only need to project the exit pupil on the sensor, the question is how?

Nikon DSLR's do it for you and show it in the LCD readout!
