Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Both a practical book of tested lens designs and an introduction to the topic. This book presents designs for anything from camera lenses to laser collimators, giving construction and performance data for each design. Preliminary chapters introduce the design process, both traditional and CAD.
Includes index.
Automatic Lens design: Managing the lens design program -- Improving a design -- Evaluation: How good is this design? -- Lens design data -- Telescope objectives -- Eyepieces and magnifiers -- Cooke Triplet Anastigmats -- Reverse telephoto (Retrofocus and fish-eye) lenses -- Telephoto lenses -- Double meniscus anastigmats -- The tessar, hellar and other compounded triplets -- The Petzval lens; Head-up display lenses -- Split triplets -- Microscope objectives -- Mirror and catadioptric systems -- The biotar or double-gauss lens -- Wide-angle lenses with negative outer elements -- Projection TV lenses and macro lenses -- Zoom lenses -- Infrared systems -- Scanner/f-0 and laser disk/collimator lenses -- Tolerance budgeting -- Formulary.
