Method for the Optical Adjustment of a Camerafield of the Invention

Abstract

During the assembly of cameras, especially for cameras having imaging optical systems with reduced depth of field, an accurate adjustment of an optical sensor medium relative to the imaging optical system may be necessary. Therefore, a method is provided for optically adjusting a camera in which at least one plastically deformable adjustment element is employed that is plastically deformable by the action of at least one force and/or at least one torque. By deforming this adjustment element, it is possible to alter a placement and/or alignment of the optical sensor medium relative to the imaging optical system so that an optimal image quality is ensured. Because of the stability of the method and the low costs associated with it, the method proposed is also suitable for a serial application.
