Schmidt prisms Product
Schmidt prisms are ideal for creating a right handed image with a ray deviation of 45°. They are similar in function to Amici Roof Prisms, however the 45° deviation makes Schmidt prisms especially useful in eyepiece assemblies and imaging systems requiring a path bend. Schmidt Prisms can be combined with Half-Penta Prisms to create a Pechan prism.
We can manufacture lenses in any optical material required. Please contact us with your specific requirements.
