A particle beam apparatus for tilted observation of a specimen is capable of producing magnification images of the specimen under tilted observation with high accuracy. The particle beam apparatus includes a source for generating a particle beam, deflection means for tilting the particle beam and a lens for focussing the tilted particle beam onto the specimen. Furthermore, multipole correction means are provided for correcting the lens aberrations occurring due to off-axial intersection of the lens by the tilted particle beam. The lens is an electrostatic, magnetic or combined electrostatic-magnetic objective lens.
