  2. Exit pupil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit_pupil

    The exit pupil is an image of the aperture made by the optics following it; divergent rays from each point in the aperture plane come together again in the exit pupil. To use an optical instrument, the entrance pupil of the viewer's eye (the image of the anatomical pupil as seen through the cornea ) must be aligned with and be of similar size ...

    For example, a 10 × 42 binocular has a 4.2 mm wide exit cone, and fairly comfortable for general use, whereas doubling the magnification with a zoom feature to 20 × results in a much more critical 2.1 mm exit cone.

  4. Telescopic sight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_sight

    Exit pupil – Telescopic sights concentrate the light gathered by the objective into a beam, the exit pupil, whose diameter is the objective diameter divided by the magnifying power. For maximum effective light-gathering and brightest image, the exit pupil should equal the diameter of the fully dilated iris – for a youthful dark-adapted ...

  5. Specter (sight) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specter_(sight)

    The optic has two standard reticles: both are a cross, feature a range finder out to 600 m (656 yd) for 5.56x45 and 800 m (875 yd) for 7.62x51, where they differ is in the bulletdrop design, where the one called CX5395/CX5396 uses circles to denote the range, while the other called CX5455/CX5456 uses lines and also features lines for windage.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C79_optical_sight

    C79 Reticle as shown in the declassified danish manual of arms HRN 111-00 for the M95 family of rifles (C7,C8 and C8IUR) The reticle of the C79 sight was designed to serve on the C9 Light Machine Gun, thus an appropriate pattern was chosen to aid the gunner in judging distance.

    Eye relief: For optics such as binoculars or a rifle scope, eye relief is the distance from the eyepiece to the viewer's eye that matches the eyepiece exit pupil to the eye's entrance pupil. Short eye relief requires the observer to press their eye close to the eyepiece in order to see an un-vignetted image.

  8. Optical aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_aberration

    The component S1 of the system, situated between the aperture stop and the object O, projects an image of the diaphragm, termed by Abbe the entrance pupil; the exit pupil is the image formed by the component S2, which is placed behind the aperture stop. All rays which issue from O and pass through the aperture stop also pass through the ...

  9. Telecentric lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecentric_lens

    The exit pupil is located at infinity, and chief rays after the objective are parallel to the optical axis. An image-space telecentric lens has the exit pupil (the image of the aperture stop formed by optics after it) at infinity and produces images of the same size regardless of the distance between the lens and the film or image sensor. This ...
