[[File:Focal-length.svg|frame|right|The focal point '''F''' and focal length ''f'' of a positive (convex) lens, a negative (concave) lens, a concave mirror, and a convex mirror.]]
The '''focal length''' of an [[optics|optical]] system is a measure of how strongly the system converges or diverges [[light]]. For an optical system in air, it is the distance over which initially [[collimated]] rays are brought to a [[focus (optics)|focus]]. A system with a shorter focal length has greater [[optical power]] than one with a long focal length; that is, it bends the [[ray (optics)|ray]]s more strongly, bringing them to a focus in a shorter distance.
 
In most [[photography]] and all [[telescopy]], where the subject is essentially infinitely far away, longer focal length (lower optical power) leads to higher [[magnification]] and a narrower [[angle of view]]; conversely, shorter focal length or higher optical power is associated with a wider angle of view. On the other hand, in applications such as [[microscopy]] in which magnification is achieved by bringing the object close to the lens, a shorter focal length (higher optical power) leads to higher magnification because the subject can be brought closer to the center of projection.
 
== Thin lens approximation ==
 
For a [[thin lens]] in air, the focal length is the distance from the center of the [[lens (optics)|lens]] to the [[Focus (optics)|principal foci]] (or ''focal points'') of the lens. For a converging lens (for example a [[Lens (optics)#Types of simple lenses|convex lens]]), the focal length is positive, and is the distance at which a beam of [[collimated light]] will be focused to a single spot. For a diverging lens (for example a [[Lens (optics)#Types of simple lenses|concave lens]]), the focal length is negative, and is the distance to the point from which a collimated beam appears to be diverging after passing through the lens.

For a ''thick lens'' (one which has a non-[[negligible]] thickness), or an imaging system consisting of several lenses and/or mirrors (e.g., a [[photographic lens]] or a [[telescope]]), the focal length is often called the '''effective focal length''' (EFL), to distinguish it from other commonly used parameters:
* '''Front focal length''' (FFL) or '''front focal distance''' (FFD) is the distance from the front focal point of the system to the [[surface vertex|vertex]] of the ''first optical surface''.<ref name = "Greivenkamp"/><ref name=Hecht>{{cite book |first=Eugene |last=Hecht |year=1987 |title=Optics |edition=2nd |publisher=[[Addison Wesley]] |isbn=0-201-11609-X |pages=148–9}}</ref>
* '''Back focal length''' (BFL) or '''back focal distance''' (BFD) is the distance from the vertex of the ''last optical surface'' of the system to the rear focal point.<ref name = "Greivenkamp"/><ref name=Hecht/>
 
For an optical system in air, the effective focal length (''f'' and ''f&prime;'') gives the distance from the front and rear [[principal plane]]s (''H'' and ''H&prime;'') to the corresponding focal points (''F'' and ''F&prime;''). If the surrounding medium is not air, then the distance is multiplied by the [[refractive index]] of the medium (''n'' is the refractive index of the substance from which the lens itself is made; ''n<sub>1</sub>'' is the refractive index of any medium in front of the lens; ''n<sub>2</sub>'' is that of any medium in back of it). Some authors call these distances the front/ rear focal ''lengths'', distinguishing them from the front/ rear focal ''distances'', defined above.<ref name="Greivenkamp">

In general, the focal length or EFL is the value that describes the ability of the optical system to focus light, and is the value used to calculate the [[magnification]] of the system. The other parameters are used in determining where an [[image]] will be formed for a given object position.
 
For the case of a lens of thickness ''d'' in air, and surfaces with [[Radius of curvature (optics)|radii of curvature]] ''R''<sub>1</sub> and ''R''<sub>2</sub>, the effective focal length ''f'' is given by:
 
:<math>\frac{1}{f} = (n-1) \left[ \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} + \frac{(n-1)d}{n R_1 R_2} \right],</math>
where ''n'' is the [[refractive index]] of the lens medium. The quantity 1/''f'' is also known as the [[optical power]] of the lens.

The corresponding front focal distance is:
:<math>\mbox{FFD} = f \left( 1 + \frac{ (n-1) d}{n R_2} \right), </math>
and the back focal distance:
:<math>\mbox{BFD} = f \left( 1 - \frac{ (n-1) d}{n R_1} \right). </math>
<!--

In the [[sign convention]] used here, the value of ''R''<sub>1</sub> will be positive if the first lens surface is convex, and negative if it is concave. The value of ''R''<sub>2</sub> is positive if the second surface is concave, and negative if convex. Note that sign conventions vary between different authors, which results in different forms of these equations depending on the convention used.
 
For a [[sphere|spherically]] curved [[mirror]] in air, the magnitude of the focal length is equal to the [[Radius of curvature (optics)|radius of curvature]] of the mirror divided by two. The focal length is positive for a [[concave mirror]], and negative for a [[convex mirror]]. In the sign convention used in optical design, a concave mirror has negative radius of curvature, so
 
:<math>f = -{R \over 2}</math>,
<!--
  CAUTION TO EDITORS: This equation depends on an arbitrary sign convention
  (explained on the page). If the signs don't match your textbook, your book

where <math>R</math> is the radius of curvature of the mirror's surface.
 
See [[Radius of curvature (optics)]] for more information on the sign convention for radius of curvature used here.

Camera lens focal lengths are usually specified in millimetres (mm), but some older lenses are marked in centimetres (cm) or inches.
 
Focal length (''f'') and [[field of view]] (FOV) of a lens are inversely proportional. For a standard [[rectilinear lens]], FOV = 2 arctan (''x'' / (2 ''f'')), where ''x'' is the diagonal of the film.
 
When a [[photographic lens]] is set to "infinity", its rear [[nodal point]]<!--principal plane??--> is separated from the sensor or film, at the [[focal plane]], by the lens's focal length. Objects far away from the camera then produce sharp images on the sensor or film, which is also at the image plane.
 
[[File:Thin lens images.svg|thumb|300px|Images of black letters in a thin convex lens of focal length ''f'' are shown in red. Selected rays are shown for letters '''E''', '''I''' and '''K''' in blue, green and orange, respectively. Note that '''E''' (at 2''f'') has an equal-size, real and inverted image; '''I''' (at ''f'') has its image at infinity; and '''K''' (at ''f''/2) has a double-size, virtual and upright image.]]
 
To render closer objects in sharp focus, the lens must be adjusted to increase the distance between the rear nodal point and the film, to put the film at the image plane. The focal length (<math>f</math>), the distance from the front nodal point to the object to photograph (<math>S_1</math>), and the distance from the rear nodal point to the image plane (<math>S_2</math>) are then related by:
 
:<math>\frac{1}{S_1} + \frac{1}{S_2} = \frac{1}{f}  </math>.
 
As <math>S_1</math> is decreased, <math>S_2</math> must be increased. For example, consider a [[normal lens]] for a [[35 mm]] camera with a focal length of <math>f=50 \text{ mm}</math>.  To focus a distant object (<math>S_1\approx \infty</math>), the rear nodal point of the lens must be located a distance <math>S_2=50 \text{ mm}</math> from the image plane. To focus an object 1&nbsp;m away (<math>S_1=1000 \text{ mm}</math>), the lens must be moved 2.6&nbsp;mm further away from the image plane, to <math>S_2=52.6 \text{ mm}</math>.
 
The focal length of a lens determines the magnification at which it images distant objects.  It is equal to the distance between the image plane and a [[pinhole camera|pinhole that images]] distant objects the same size as the lens in question.  For [[rectilinear lens]]es (that is, with no [[image distortion]]), the imaging of distant objects is well modelled as a [[pinhole camera model]].<ref>

This model leads to the simple geometric model that photographers use for computing the [[angle of view]] of a camera; in this case, the angle of view depends only on the ratio of focal length to [[film format|film size]].  In general, the angle of view depends also on the distortion.<ref>

A lens with a focal length about equal to the diagonal size of the film or sensor format is known as a [[normal lens]]; its angle of view is similar to the angle subtended by a large-enough print viewed at a typical viewing distance of the print diagonal, which therefore yields a normal perspective when viewing the print;<ref>

this angle of view is about 53 degrees diagonally. For full-frame 35&nbsp;mm-format cameras, the diagonal is 43&nbsp;mm and a typical "normal" lens has a 50&nbsp;mm focal length.  A lens with a focal length shorter than normal is often referred to as a [[wide-angle lens]] (typically 35&nbsp;mm and less, for 35&nbsp;mm-format cameras), while a lens significantly longer than normal may be referred to as a [[telephoto lens]] (typically 85&nbsp;mm and more, for 35&nbsp;mm-format cameras). Technically, long focal length lenses are only "telephoto" if the focal length is longer than the physical length of the lens, but the term is often used to describe any long focal length lens.
 
Due to the popularity of the [[135 film|35 mm standard]], camera–lens combinations are often described in terms of their [[35 mm equivalent focal length]], that is, the focal length of a lens that would have the same angle of view, or field of view, if used on a [[Full-frame digital SLR|full-frame]] 35&nbsp;mm camera.  Use of a 35&nbsp;mm-equivalent focal length is particularly common with [[digital camera]]s, which often use sensors smaller than 35&nbsp;mm film, and so require correspondingly shorter focal lengths to achieve a given angle of view, by a factor known as the [[crop factor]].
