In the case of a camera as well as the human eye, it is possible to control the amount of incoming light with the help of a diaphragm and an aperture. Both use a convex lens for focusing. The photographic film in a camera is coated with a photosensitive material. The retina in the eye consists of a large number of light sensitive cells.

1. Comparison b/w Human Eye and Camera
In the case of a camera as well as the human eye, it is possible to control the amount of
incoming light with the help of a diaphragm and an aperture. Both use a convex lens for
focusing. The photographic film in a camera is coated with a photosensitive material. The
retina in the eye consists of a large number of light sensitive cells. The photographic film in a
camera is processed using chemicals and then prints (photographs) can be obtained using the
appropriate paper.
In the human eye, the electrical signals generated by light sensitive cells are passed by optic
nerves to the brain which interprets them. Cameras come in a variety of sizes and shapes
unlike the human eye. Unlike the human eye, a wide variation in exposure time is possible in
the case of cameras. The human eye is sensitive in the visible region (red to violet) of the
electromagnetic spectrum, while a much wider view range of the electromagnetic spectrum
can be covered with cameras designed for specific purpose.

2. In comparison with the human eye, a wider view and rage can be converted by a camera.
In comparison with the human eye, a wider intensity (of light) range can be covered with a
camera. The retina is indispensable in the human eye, while cameras without a photographic
film have been designed with the help of photosensitive materials and are in current use.
With advances in technology, improved cameras are designed all the time, and the list
of differences between the human eye and a camera in general would be practically endless.
