Abstract:
A camera head is provided that includes a first lens group, including at least one deformable lens with variable curvature, a second lens group moveable relative to the first lens group, and an image sensor for capturing a light beam received from an endoscope, wherein the first lens group is fixed relative to the image sensor and the aperture of the first lens group is smaller than the aperture of the second lens group. A method is also provided for capturing of an image utilizing a zoom system including a variable power first lens group and a movable second lens group.

Claim (Index 8):
An optical instrument comprising:\n an objective for providing an optical image, a zoom system, and an image sensor, wherein the objective, the zoom system and the image sensor are disposed along a common optical path, and wherein the zoom system comprises\n a plurality of lens groups for imaging the optical image, the plurality of lens groups comprising, in relative order along the common optical path from the objective side:\n a first lens group having a first aperture and including at least one deformable lens with a variable curvature, the first lens group being fixed relative to the image sensor; and \n a second lens group having a second aperture, the second aperture being wider than the first aperture of the first lens group, the second lens group being optically arranged between the first lens group and the image sensor, and the second lens group adapted to move relative to the first lens group in a direction substantially coaxial with at least a portion of the common optical path.
