Abstract

A far-optical device comprising a reversal system and an adjustable optical magnification means with more than fourfold magnification, wherein the far-optical device has an optical beam deflection means which at all magnifications ensures a subjective field of view of the far-optical device of at least 22° at least for light of a wavelength of about 550 nm.

Claims (16)

1. A far-optical device comprising:

an objective lens and an eyepiece lens;

a reversal system, wherein the reversal system is arranged between an objective-side image plane and an eyepiece-side image plane,

wherein the reversal system is for magnifying an intermediate image produced in the objective-side image plane, and

wherein the reversal system has two optical elements with positive refractive powers, wherein said two optical elements are movable relative to each other, so that said intermediate image produced by the objective lens in the objective-side image plane is produced, with a changeable imaging scale and in an upright position, in the eyepiece-side image plane; and

an optical beam deflection means disposed on a side of the reversal system facing the eyepiece lens, wherein the optical beam deflection means is arranged fixedly with respect to the reversal system and is arranged on a side of the eyepiece-side image plane which faces away from the eyepiece lens, such that at all magnifications of the far-optical device a subjective field of view of the far-optical device is at least 22°,

wherein a maximum value of the changeable imaging scale is greater than four times.

2. The far-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the maximum value of the changeable imaging scale is at least fivefold.

3. The far-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the maximum value of the changeable imaging scale is at least sixfold.

4. The far-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein at a maximum magnification of the far-optical device a total focal length for the reversal system is at most 11 mm.

5. The far-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the optical beam deflection means at a maximum magnification ensures a total focal length for the reversal system of between 11 mm and 7 mm.

6. The far-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the optical beam deflection means at a maximum magnification ensures a total focal length for the reversal system of between 10 mm and 8 mm.

7. The far-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the optical beam deflection means has a refractive power of between −20 dpt and −40 dpt.

8. The far-optical device according to claim 1 , wherein the optical beam deflection means has a refractive power of between −27 dpt and −37 dpt.

9. The far-optical device according to claim 1 , having a central tube disposed between the objective lens and the eyepiece lens and the central tube having an outside diameter of 35 mm at most.

10. The far-optical device according to claim 1 , having a central tube disposed between the objective lens and the eyepiece lens and the central tube has a maximum outside diameter of between 35 mm and 30 mm.
