Solution

The correct option is B False

Camera:

The camera needs a lens that can produce a real image of the object on the photographic film or screen.

Explanation:

  1. A concave lens constantly generates virtual, erect, and smaller pictures, and the tiny size of the picture is determined by the object's location.
  2. Depending on the location of the object on the primary axis, a convex lens produces actual or virtual, upright and inverted, decreased, same-sized, and enlarged images.
  3. The convex lens always creates actual and magnified pictures for object distances beyond the focus.

Therefore, the given statement is false.
