An arrangement for generating a defined longitudinal chromatic aberration in a beam path of a confocal microscope. The arrangement includes using a confocal microscope with a microscope objective, and supplementary optics which are arranged in the imaging beam path of the microscope objective. The supplementary optics include at least two dual lens optical elements for generating the longitudinal chromatic aberration.

Arrangement for generating a defined longitudinal chromatic aberration

Optical system with variable image scale

The invention is directed to a microscope having an objective corrected to infinity and a pivotable binocular viewing unit. A tube lens is arranged downstream of the objective. The microscope includes at least one two-lens tube lens having a focal intercept greater than 200 mm as well as a tiltable mirror element and a further deflecting element mounted between the tube lens and the binocular viewing unit.
