Wrap It Up!Cobertura de objetivos ("Lens Coverage")En el episodio de hoy, hablaremos sobre un aspecto técnico importante en el mundo de la imagen: el "Lens Coverage" o cobertura del objetivo. El "Lens Coverage" o cobertura del objetivo se refiere a la capacidad de un objetivo para capturar toda la imagen dentro del área de cobertura. En otras palabras, determina el tamaño máximo del sensor o el formato de película que el objetivo puede abarcar completamente sin recortar partes de la imagen.
