Reflex lens is an alternative term for mirror lens . Refraction is the change in direction of light rays as they pass obliquely from one transparent medium to another of different density, e.g. air to glass.
Refractive index is a numerical value indicating the light bending power of a medium such as glass.
The greater the bending power, the greater the refractive index. Register is the exact alignment when overlaying separate images. Register punch is the punched used to make alignment holes in film or paper for registering images. Rehalogenization is a process by which black metallic silver is converted back to silver halides. It is used in bleaching for toners and intensification .
