Abstract
An optical assembly for a color camera includes a prism for splitting light entering an entry port into color components of the light which appear at output ports. Each color component is applied to an individual solid-state imager. In order to minimize size and maximize rigidity and reliability, the imagers are bonded to the prism. In order to equalize the effective lengths of the light paths, spacers are interposed between the imagers and the prism.
