Very rugged cameras with all-reflective optics proposed for use in presence of high accelerations. Optics consist of four coaxial focusing mirrors in Cassegrain configuration. Mirrors are conics or aspherics. Optics achromatic,and imaging system overall passes light from extreme ultraviolet to far infrared. Charge-coupled-device video camera, film camera, or array of photodetectors placed at focal plane. Useful as portable imagers subject to rough handling, or instrumentation cameras mounted on severely vibrating or accelerating vehicles.
