Merge with fixed focus?

Is a Focus free lens the same as a Fixed focus lens with a fixed focal length? Than this is the case, than it should be merged. UdovdM 14:35, 25 November 2008 (UTC)


 * In the way the two articles are written I would say that they are and the content should be merged. Interestingly though there are cameras with fixed focal lengths in which the focal point is not fixed at the hyperfocal distance. These include specialist portraiture cameras such as those used in Department stores to photograph children and a number of industrial applications where a camera is used to record an industrial process for which no change of focus is required. There are probably many other examples. In conclusion I would propose merging the current content and creating Fixed focus lens with more relevant content.
