Describes the test methods for the determination of the following basic characteristics of telescopic systems and observational telescopic instruments: - angular magnification; - entrance pupil diameter; - exit pupil diameter and eye relief; - angular field of view in the object space; - angular field of view in the image space; - angular field of view in the object space for spectacle wearers; - collimation of the bundle of rays emergent from the eyepiece; - image rotation; - closest distance of observation.

This part of ISO14490 specifies the test methods for the determination of the following basic characteristics of telescopic systems and observational telescopic instruments:

  • angular magnification (see Clause4);

  • entrance pupil diameter (see Clause5);

  • exit pupil diameter and eye relief (see Clause6);

  • angular field of view in the object space (see Clause7);

  • angular field of view in the image space (see Clause8);

  • angular field of view in the object space for spectacle wearers (see Clause9);

  • collimation of the bundle of rays emergent from the eyepiece (see Clause10);

  • image rotation (see Clause11);

  • closest distance of observation (see Clause12).
