Abstract
Image forming lens systemsdo not provide perfect images. Lens abberations can be detected with complex optical ray-tracing. A single aberration in lenses, the distortion, can be detected at the image plane with optical mapping. Therefore moire interferometry can be adapted to detect and measure distortion. This method is adaptable by serial testing of the universal measuring cameras, projection cameras, photogrammetrical cameras, etc. The distortion of the whole image plane can be represented on one moire image. This can be useful if the distortion is not rotationally symmetrical for example because of errors of assembly. The distortion of 1 µm regarding the focal plane can be measured by using the moire method presented in this paper.
