ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a highly corrected, parfocalized, two-focal-length optical system comprising a primary image producing group consisting of a catadioptric lens system which forms its image within a first, positive field lens, and a second group comprising a symmetrical relay system coaxial with the primary group and movable axially relative to the primary image producing group, the relay system reimaging the image formed by the primary group through a second, negative field lens onto the fixed plane of the final image, movement of the relay lens between its extreme positions permitting close focusing of the entire system without altering its overall length.
