Question

Or they truly do.

In: Engineering

Answer 1

Because inch for inch, they do. It’s the world shrunk down to a frame. But the other reason is, it’s flat. In the real world you have to focus on things at a certain distance, and that’s where all your clarity is while items near or far blur out. On a screen, it’s all as in-focus as the filmer wants it to be.
