Range Extended Zoom Lens Makes Images Easier to Read

Resolve Optics has announced a new longer focal length version (24-144mm) of its Model 290 radiation resistant zoom lens.

Occupying the same compact footprint as the standard Model 290 the new range extended 6x zoom lens allows users to get closer to the subject making images easier to read without any loss of performance.

The range extended Model 290 lens enables users to image objects from 800mm to infinity without using add-on adapters. When focused at infinity the lens achieves high image resolution on axis at full aperture throughout the zoom range without refocusing (image tracking). Operating at f/1.8 the extended range Model 290 provides high image resolution and minimum geometric distortion from 400 - 750 nm.

Drawing upon over 20 years experience Resolve Optics Ltd. has built a strong reputation for supplying production quantities of radiation-resistant lenses and optical products on time to strict quality and target price guidelines. All optical elements within Resolve Optics non-browning zoom lenses are made using cerium oxide doped glass or synthetic silica enabling them to withstand radiation exposure of up to 53 kGy (53,000,000 rads) and temperatures up to 55 degrees centigrade without discoloration.
