Telescopic and Camera Optics
In large-aperture systems, SU is sometimes introduced deliberately to manage the energetic cost associated with maintaining absolute focus across the entire field of view. By slightly under-correcting the central axis, designers can allocate more optical material tolerance toward mitigating coma/) (specifically, oblique meridianic coma) in the periphery.
The analysis cross-reference provided in the Aperture/) entry demonstrates that achieving a standard full $f$-st…
