An objective lens assembly is provided, with a sleeve, a first positioning member arranged in the sleeve, which is housed displaceable in longitudinal direction of the sleeve and holds at least one lens, a first adjustment unit which brings the first positioning member into abutment on the inside of the sleeve such that the first positioning member rests against the inside of the sleeve in a first linear contact area and at the same time the displaceability of the first positioning member is maintained. More than one positioning member can be utilized along with multiple lenses and can utilize simple mechanical structures (e.g., blind- and through-holes and pins or shanks) and/or magnetic or magnetizable materials to maintain a desired position of the sleeve.
