  • @TheSergeZebian Glad you liked it! The real image forms within the focal point and the second lens. When this occurs it has the consequence of creating a virtual image which is larger than the real image. In my video titled '14. Ray Tracing for a Converging Lens - Part 3/4' i explain why this is the case using the three rules of ray tracing. Have a look at that video and let me know if i explain it satisfactory.

  • great video!

    just one question why is the virtual image bigger? is it just simply because it is being viewed by a magnifying lens?
