In terms of the perspective projection camera model, two things occur simultaneously during a dolly zoom sequence: the camera moves along the z-axis, and the focal distance of the camera changes. The distance moved and the change of focal length are carefully chosen so that the projection of objects at a predefined distance remain at the same image position. Objects at all other distances move relative to one another. A photographer wants to capture two images of a scene captured at either end of a dolly zoom, such that the image positions of points in the world at a distance of α cm relative to the camera that took the first image remain the same. The first image is captured with a focal length of β cm. To capture the second image, the camera was moved γ cm along the z-axis in the negative direction. What focal length should be used to capture the second image to successfully perform the dolly zoom.
