3.0 out of 5 stars Summary of intros
Well, a book serves as a summary of optical systems intro.
Formulas pop up without derivations, some chapters are just a few pages long. Published 7 years ago, some pictures are hard to see the details or even the sketch..

This review is from: Optical System Design (Hardcover)
This is the exact book i needed. It is an excellent summary of optical principles, and their utilization in optical systems. The design examples are great for illustrating the underlying principles. The level is great for professionals (as a review), or for anyone wanting to learn the principles of optics design. I highly recommend this book, there are lots of references for deeper study. This would be an excellent textbook for a class in optical design.

5.0 out of 5 stars Practical words of wisdom for optics, September 27, 2000
By 
This review is from: Optical System Design (Hardcover)
Fischer gives me good advice that I can look up in a book. For example, I found answers about diffraction efficiency in diffractive optics, and a lens design case study about digital camera lenses. I also enjoyed the bloopers section. This information will help me do my job.
