📘Good read for anyone working with imaging systems: Modeling the Imaging Chain of Digital Cameras by Brian Fiete (SPIE)

This book is a great reminder that an optical system is more than just the lens. While a lot of time is usually spent optimizing optics, other parts of the system—like the detector or signal processing—can end up being the real performance bottleneck.

It does a nice job walking through the full imaging chain, from scene radiometry all the way to data processing, and explains how each stage affects the final image. Very practical, very systems‑level thinking.

A solid recommendation for anyone in optics who wants to better understand how real imaging systems behave end to end. 👌Recommended by our optical engineers on staff.
