ABSTRACT:
A lens testing apparatus detects and evaluates inclination of the image plane as caused by decentering of an optical system. The apparatus has an image provider, a plurality of focusing position detectors, and a calculator. The image provider provides an image to a lens system to be tested for decentering. The detectors detect a focusing position on which light rays exiting from the lens system focus. The calculator calculates inclination of the image plane based on the focusing position detected by the detectors.
