Theodor Scheimpflug

Theodor Scheimpflug (7 October 1865 - 22 August 1911) was an Austrian army Captain who elaborated a systematic method and apparatus for correcting perspective distortion in aerial photographs, now known as the eponymous Scheimpflug principle.

He disclaimed inventing it however, citing an English patent of the early French photographic engineer Jules Carpentier.
