ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for maintaining in focus an image formed at the image plane of an optical instrument, notwithstanding random angular movement of the instrument's housing. Such apparatus includes mounting means for angularly decoupling the image-forming element (e.g., a refractive lens) of the optical instrument from the instrument's housing, thereby allowing the image-forming element to move relative to such housing, and means for maintaining the focal plane of the image-forming element substantially parallel to the image plane of the optical instrument during relative angular movement between the image-forming element and the instrument's housing.
