Book summary & details tell a friend all books
This is a great reference text for a practicing optical engineer. Mr. Smith does an excellent job of putting many very practical lessons in design, analysis, and practical experience for traditional lenses in it. I find myself continually looking up information and details relevant to my work in this text - which does not ever stray far from my desk! [by RY]
