<font size="4">"From the start the Minox concept was of a high performance high presicison isntrument of considrable versatility. Attention was thus given to the search for perfection, a search facilitated by improvements in lens computing, in optical materials and in all aspects of instrument production.

The Minox lens of 15mm focal length and with a fixed aperture of f3.5 was originally of three elements, but now a four element highly corrected anastigmat made of

lanthanum glass. It is capable of very high levels of performance and exceeds the resolving capacity of the film materials avaialbe"</font><P>

<P><font size="4">"The lens resolving potential of ultra-miniature cameras is illustrated by

the performance of the 4-element lens of the Minox. A test pattern the size

of the Minox negative image is projected through each lens to a screen

size of approximately 4x5 1/2 feet. Any lens which does not project this

pattern sharply from edge to edge is rejected. "</font>
