2019 NELSONIAN® AWARDS
Presenting: The NELSONIAN® AWARDS for 2019
INFINITY PHOTO-OPTICAL COMPANY congratulates ALL.
This award—a golden trophy MikroMak™ prime lens—is an accolade for meritorious and innovative use of Infinity’s unique Nelsonian® lens systems: optics which are designed upon microscopical principles, many of which date back to those proposed by Edward Milles Nelson.
Called by many “the English Abbe,” Nelson established criteria—which led future scientists such as F. Zernike to develop phase contrast and other devices—by observing anomalies in Abbe’s diffraction theory, such as “the invisible image.” We now honor his memory.
This year’s recipients are:
Roberto Laguna Ditleff –
For the initial use and first cinematography done with Nelsonian® optics.
Avi Karpick –
For the advanced use of Nelsonian® optics in product and perspective cinematography.
Stephen McGehee –
For innovative commercial applications of Nelsonian® optics in Apple, Samsung and Exxon commercials seen by millions on television.
Rob Stiff –
For exploring the methods and capabilities by which Nelsonian® optics can be utilized for forced perspective.
