Thanks for the complementary info, now it's much clearer.Duke wrote: ↑Tue Sep 22, 2020 10:51 am...
Just from the fact, that LOMO PE 1.67x is Huygens eyepiece, you should know it has no "correction" whatsoever, it's totally uncorrected in terms of optical aberrations.
It introduces spherical aberration, coma, field curvature, distortion, astigmatism, lateral and axial chromatic aberrations to the resulting image.
In fact I'm not strong in Optics theory and much less on Lomo equipment. You must be right but the scheme of the Lomo 1.7 shows two separated eye lenses so it is a modified huygenian design.
It happens that I own an old unbranded huygenian type eyepiece only labeled "Compens 10X" that effectively is compensating, showing the typical orange peripheral halo (and tested). It came with an old Zeiss industrial microscope part.
No problem, this is very usual.BTW, Sorry for hijacking your thread.
Just for clarity and ease to find, because both subjects are enough different and interesting I've split the thread.
