Abstract
An apparatus is described for reading an optically encoded radiation-reflecting information carrier, using an opto-electronic focussing error detection system. The path of the read beam which is directed towards the information carrier includes a radiation-deflecting element producing a narrow focussing beam that co-operates with two focussing detectors to produce an error signal.
