A lithographic apparatus includes an illumination system configured to condition a beam of radiation, a support structure configured to hold a reticle, a substrate table configured to hold a substrate, and a projection system configured to project a beam onto the substrate table. The numerical aperture of the illumination system is larger than the numerical aperture of the projection system. The apparatus also includes a radiation redirection device configured to re-direct sigma>1 components of the beam of radiation to within the numerical aperture of the projection system.
