ABSTRACT:
An infrared afocal refractor telescope (40) comprises a zoom system (27), a collecting system (28) and an eyepiece system (30) arranged in a common optical axis (26). The zoom system (27) is formed by a fixed objective lens component (K) and by a first lens component (H) mounted on a carriage (32) and by a second lens component (I,J) mounted on a carriage (31), the carriages (32,31) being separately movable along the optical axis (26). The movable lens components of the zoom system (27) each have the same sign of optical power and the variation in telescope magnification provided by selective positioning of the carriages (32,31) is at least 5:1 in range. The locus (34,33) of movement of each of the two movable lens components (H;I,J) renders the telescope athermalized.
