Abstract

A systematic design method for quasi-symmetrical wide angle systems is presented. The method starts with thin lens predesign of half of the system using most available glasses. The aperture stop position is determined for reducing astigmatism and the system is made symetrical about it for eliminating Coma, Lateral colour and Distortion. Finally the system is optimized using Eikonal software for infinite conjugate.
