You don't understand the efferent model either. And you still haven't told me what your mysterious third option is.

You are changing the properties of light whenever you say the light at the film or retina can be there without having traveled there and without having been emitted there.

Your requirements do not explain how the light got from the Sun to the film. There is a very real 92 million mile distance between these two locations. If the photons get from the one location to the other, then they must either pass through the intervening space (i.e. travel), or not pass through the intervening space (i.e. teleport).

Good. Instead of repeating weaseling evasions, try actually answering honestly for once.

Then try speaking of the fields of view of people, instead of mindless nonsense about the fields of view of objects.

No-one can understand what you refuse to explain. You don't understand it either.

Denial will not make it go away. The photon problem is that you need photons at the film on Earth at the very same moment the Sun 92 million miles away first starts emitting them, and you have absolutely no explanation for how this can be achieved.
