Hi there
As is known using non-infinity corrected objectives in infinity corrected microscopes is not a good idea because of many reasons (image quality will be degraded, back focal plane will be in wrong place, parfocal distance is not preserved, etc.).
What about building infinity corrected microscope from the scratch using non-infinity corrected objective: is it possible? Are there any design differences between the two kinds of objectives that does not allow this or at least have to be handled properly?
Anyway, references to microscope design books are highly appreciated.
