XENON-SAPPHIRE 3.5/96MM 25-1068012 16K Macro Lens System 16k High Resolution Lens

The Schneider Optics Xenon Sapphire 3.5/96 (pn: 25-1068012) is a  high-resolution, high-speed lens is optimized for the use with 16k line scan sensors. It is broadband coated and can be used in the range of 400 – 1000 nm. The V-mount makes it easy to install and rotate into the “best azimuth” position to provide the highest performance for a wide range of high resolution applications.

The Xenon Sapphire 3.5/96 provides three significant stop positions that are especially marked on the stop ring:

F#3.5 is the maximum opening of the stop and provides maximum brightness. The mechanical vignetting at this F/number is approx. 15% at the edge of the field. The MTF for 100 lp/mm is very high up to the edge of a 58 mm field. Due to the high aperture the lens is more sensitive with respect to change of magnification.

F#4.4 shows maximum MTF and practically diffraction limited performance over the whole field. The depth of field is bigger but the lens is still sensitive to magnification changes. At F#4.4 the lens is free of artificial vignetting.

F#5.2 produces more diffraction which reduces the MTF slightly but is now extremely homogenous over the entire field. The lens shows this performance for the complete magnification range from -0.37 < ß’ < -0.325 and performs well for a magnification range of -0.39 < ß’ < -0.30 at a 16k performance of 100 lp/mm.
