p.1 #1 · Odd question - technical diagrams for lens


Alright, I have a bit of an odd request for y'all, but if anyone would know where to find these things it will be someone on this forum.

I am in a solidworks class and our final project is to find some sort of mechanical item to model. I would like to do a camera lens, preferably something with a simple design (the simpler the better). I need an "exploded" diagram that shows the different componants - something with dimensions would be fantastic in helping me to model it.

Here is an example of what I am looking for:
http://www.docstoc.com/docs/21873006/Olympus-50mm-f18-Lens-Exploded-Parts-Diagram

If anyone knows a website with this type of thing I would be really grateful!

Thank you!

In lens design books and software (for example free Qioptiq Pre Designer) some simpler lenses are as examples. But I am not sure if there are all needed distances given, but I suppose thes should be there.

Yes, everyone else on this forum stinks

But, really, I got what I needed, that's all I look for when I ask a question on this forum, it's why I love it here.
