    Hi, My simple telescope consists of a convex lens which images an area with diameter D into the detector diameter d. The object distance is S' and the image distance is s as indicated in the upper graph. Since S'/s=D/d, if I want a smaller field of view (a smaller D), I end with up a larger s...
