Why bother with specific telephoto lenses? Because as opposed to generic zoom lenses with wide and long reach, they will have fewer image defects in their core range and will usually be considerably faster in that range. Their default long reach without too much detrimental optical trickery will also render the telephoto lenses the longest lenses to lug around, and being fast comes at the cost of a large entrance pupil and large front lens diameter. They are usually the largest and heaviest of all lenses. If you have an f=300mm lens with an aperture of f:1.4, its entrance pupil has a diameter of 214mm, and if it is not to suffer from significant vignetting, its front lens should be larger than that. Of course, you don't get them quite that fast. But there is little point in making them into a zoom lens also good at wide angle when a separate fast wide angle lens with good quality will add less weight and cost into your gear box.
Beam shutters are used to control the level of light exposure to an optical lens or lens system in a range of applications such as imaging or microscopy. Shutters are manually or motor controlled irises that may be opened or closed to control the level of light that passes through the aperture. Shutters provide an accurate, stable level of light transmission that may be easily adjusted or maintained for repeated implementation. A number of motorized shutters are also available that include several iris control modes for increased versatility.

Each crystal features a protective anti-reflection (AR) coating that minimizes reflection and limits fogging from ambient conditions.
The maximum extension for this camera is 315mm. You can't move the front of the camera more than that distance out. But what if you want to use a longer lens? The Schneider 400mm f/5.6 Apo-Tele-Xenar (that's a mouthful - the 'apo' means it is an apochromat lens and then there's that 'tele' there...) has a focal length of 400mm... but its flange focal distance is 285.1mm. It could fit on that camera (well, in theory - it also has a #3 shutter and that lens board can only fit #1 and #0 shutters... but other than that).
Unless you are dealing with a large format system and looking at the rail on your camera, you aren't going to care about how the lens is designed and if the actual focal length is the distance between the lens and the focal plane or not. You've got a lens, you use it.

Laser power and energy meters are available from Edmund Optics in a wide selection of wavelength ranges for customization over a large number of laser measurement needs.
The term "telephoto lens" has a particular technical meaning in terms of lens design, but in common usage it refers to a lens with a long focal length.
Technically 'Telephoto' means that the focal length [the mm] is longer than the lens is. In my experience, people in the photography world usually don't talk about it under that definition.

White papers and videos are great instruments for creating an interest in your technology and demonstrating the capabilities of a company. But how to publicize them, reaching the right audience?
A telephoto lens is optimized for long reach (good magnification at long distances). A zoom lens is one with variable focal length, usually ranging from wide to long. While a telephoto lens may have either fixed reach or variable reach, its focusing distance will contain ∞ and will usually start at a distance of more than a few meters (macro lenses also have good magnification but focus on near distances).
Our general purpose integrating sphere systems are designed to spatially integrate radiant flux in order to measure optical radiation. They can be coupled with a sensor to create radiometers, photometers, or spectroradiometers in order to measure the total geometric flux emanating from a light source or the flux density of an illuminated area. Additionally, these sphere systems can be used to measure the output of high power lasers and laser diodes or to measure the reflectance and transmittance of materials.

A zoom lens means the lens can change focal length via zooming, i.e. it is not a prime lens. A telephoto lens has a long focal length (I do not know if there is an official threshold to call a lens telephoto, but Nikon seems to start it at 85mm.
What is the difference between the two? Why would I want one over the other? I wiki'd telephoto lens but remain confused about this distinction.
Telephoto lenses can be either zoom or prime. Zoom means that they can change how far they are looking at or prime means they have a fixed amount of magnification and can't be altered. (Like an old instant camera with no zoom, but with much better picture quality.) The reason for using a prime is that they are a) cheaper and b) produce much, much higher quality images for the price.
The first lens is called the objective lens, and has typical magnification values from 5× to 100×. In standard microscopes, the objectives are mounted such that ...

Lab laser safety components, including laser warning signs and beam traps, are also available.
So, if you want the sharpest images possible, you are looking at using a prime (not a zoom) lens. If it is longer than 85mm or so, it is likely a telephoto lens of some design. Glance at Canon's Forgotten 400 which shows a comparison between a 400mm f/5.6 telephoto prime and a 100-400mm f/3.5-5.6 zoom lens.... though do realize that with real life one typically isn't looking at brick walls at the edge of the frame.

An 18-200mm lens is a strange beast. It is a zoom lens but it can be considered both a wide angle (at 18mm) and a telephoto lens (at 200mm) because it's zoom range is so huge. You could shoot at 200mm and it's telephoto or you could shoot at 18mm and it's wide angle. In my experience if it is capable of telephoto, then you call it a telephoto. You'd then call it a telephoto zoom

Edmund Optics offers fiber-optic collimators for FC/PC, FC/APC and SMA connectors and different wavelength ranges around 350 nm to 1600 nm.
Now to zoom lenses... and the reason I mentioned that bit about retrofocus design. Typically a zoom lens is made of a prime lens group in the rear, a middle group, and then a retrofocus group in the front. That's the 'ideal' design, though often they are more complicated to deal with aberrations and distortions that inevitably come with more complex lens designs. You can get a hint of how this works in the What Is Inside a Zoom Lens? article from Tamron. Though, it is probably more accurate to say that zoom lenses take design elements from telephoto design, retrofocus design, prime lens design, and a bit of other to make a very complex system.

The simple definition of a telephoto lens is a lens that has a focal length longer than the physical lens. Many lenses that are 'long' (as opposed to 'normal' or 'wide') are telephoto in design. This is because it sometimes is impractical to put that much of a barrel on the lens. In the SLR world, one often uses 'long lens' and 'telephoto lens' synonymously.
These can be freestanding, propped against a wall or cheval style, which allows you to adjust to different angles. If you'd rather not take up floor space, an ...

There's another flip to that which is what you see in SLR photography a lot - the retrofocus design. With a Nikon F mount, the flange distance is 46.5mm. This allows the mirror to clear the back of the lens when it flips up (this is a major issue in SLR design). So the closest you can put a lens would be about 47mm away from the focal plane. But yet, there are lenses such as a 24mm lens which have a focal length that is shorter than this distance. (Note: this is part of why interchangeable lenses on rangefinders and mirrorless systems can made more cheaply - they can use simpler designs for their shorter flange distances).
Edmund Optics offers a variety of fiber optics, including jacketed or unjacketed optical grade or communications grade optical fibers. Optical grade fiber is ideal for general industrial lighting or short distance data transmission.

Edmund Optics also offers optical fiber components, including patchcords, collimators, faceplates and image conduits, fiber connectors, and the tools needed for cutting or stripping fibers.
I've heard it said that 50mm is the standard as far as lens focal length goes, meaning that at 50mm your camera will take a photo as close to how the human eye sees it, i.e. a similar zoom and angle of view. So, anything over 50mm is considered a telephoto (zoomed in from how you see it) and anything under is considered wide angle (zoomed out from how you see it). A fixed focal length lens will also be called a Prime lens, a variable focal length lens is a zoom. So to sum up, a lens with- 50mm is considered standard. 24mm would be a wide angle prime (only one focal length). 18-35mm would be a wide angle zoom. 200mm would be a telephoto prime. 70-200mm would be a telephoto zoom. 18- 200mm would be both a wide angle (below 50mm) and telephoto (above 50mm) zoom. Basically if you're focal length is below 50mm you're in wide angle mode and if you're above 50mm you're in telephoto mode. Hope this helps.
A zoom lens could "zoom" from a short (wide-angle) to long ("telephoto") focal length, making things look bigger and closer as you zoom in. Or it could zoom from an extreme wide-angle to a moderate wide-angle, never coming close to a "telephoto" focal length. Or any other range of focal lengths.

Mar 5, 2022 — We have hitherto made the assumption that a lens or a curved mirror is able to form a point image of a point object.
The focal length is normally measured in millimeters (mm). A zoom lens will have two measurements, for example "18-200 mm" (a wide-angle to telephoto zoom). It zooms from a short focal length of 18 mm to a long focal length of 200 mm. A non-zoom lens, also called a "prime" lens, will have a single focal length, for example "135 mm" (a moderate telephoto).
Edmund Optics offers mounted and unmounted retroreflection prisms in a range coating options. Reflective surfaces are available with reflection coatings including aluminum and silver. Entrance surfaces are available with VIS 0° anti-reflection coatings. Due to their complex shape, mounting a retroflection prism can be difficult. To ease system integration, mounted retroreflection prisms featuring ¼-20 tapped holes are available.
Most of the time people say 'Telephoto' they just mean 'zoomed in' or in other words 'high mm' or 'long focal length' As has been mentioned, Nikon seems to say that 85mm is the shortest focal length that they will call telephoto. I have seen people call anything above 50mm telephoto.
Other answers have stated the same thing in the same technical terms which might be meaningless in this instance. There is also a practical approach.
Nonlinear crystals of either β-barium borate (BBO) or lithium triborate (LBO) are used for frequency conversion of laser sources. BBO crystals feature thicknesses from 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm to minimize group velocity mismatch and are ideal for frequency doubling or tripling of Ti:sapphire and Yb:doped laser pulses. The critical and noncritical phase matching LBO crystals are ideal for second or third harmonic generation of Nd:YAG and Yb:doped lasers.

Edmund Optics offers a wide range of laser sources, including machine vision lasers, life science lasers, metrology lasers, gas lasers, industrial and point lasers, and material processing lasers.
On the other hand, recall that bit about the complex lens design? The wider the range of the zoom, the more compromises in the design to give you that range. It comes at the expense of aberrations, less light getting through the lens (requiring longer exposures), and other distortions. The 'super zooms' of 20-200 or 15-300 have much more compromises to the design than one that has a narrower range (the classic 100-300). Some photographers try to avoid zoom ranges of more than 3x or 5x except when necessary (glass weighs a lot - if you go hiking, it might be easier to carry a zoom than 50 lbs of glass). While the zoom lenses of today are better than those from a decade or two ago, there is still some truth to that.

Our GRIN lenses are designed to provide a 0.55 numerical aperture, and are available with two working distance options. Lenses with a zero working distance are ideal for collimation of single and multi-mode optical fibers and laser diodes because the lens can be positioned and glued directly to the emission source. For focusing applications, or in instances where the lens can’t be in direct contact with the emission source, all lenses are available with a small working distance as well. Each lens is available uncoated (approximately 12% reflection loss), or with a BBAR coating option for R < 0.5%.
Edmund Optics offers different products for Transmissive Diffraction Gratings, like Transmission Grating that are ideal for In-Line Configurations, UV Transmission Gratings that are ideal for Fixed Grating Applications or Transmission Grating Beamsplitters ideal for Laser Beam Division.
A 300mm lens is a telephoto but is not a zoom because 300mm is high mm (in other words, 'long focal length' or 'zoomed in') but it does not cover a range of focal lengths. (You can only use that lens at 300mm, not 299mm or 472674mm) Insead, we call these lenses prime lenses. A prime lens does not cover a range of focal lengths, just one.
Edmund Optics offers a range of optical tables and breadboards. Both imperial and metric versions are available in a range of dimensions.
