Eyepiece system

摘要

An eyepiece system for use with binoculars, etc. which comprises, in order from a side of an observer's eye, a first convex lens element having a strongly convex surface on a side of an objective lens, and a cemented doublet lens component which consists of a second biconvex lens element and a third negative or negative meniscus lens element. This eyepiece system is configured to have a wide apparent field angle and favorably corrected aberrations by selecting an adequate value for a distance as measured from a front focal point of the eyepiece system to a vertex on a surface of the first lens element which is located on the side of the observer's eye.
