Hi All,

I am currently designing a low‑cost imaging lens for a sports application. In my lens model I use the REAY operand to control image height, the RAID operand to control chief‑ray angle (CRA), DIMX to control f‑theta distortion, LACL for lateral‑color correction, RSCH for spot size and MTFT/MTFS for resolution across the field. During optimization I can obtain either good MTF or good lateral color with CRA and distortion depending on the operand weightings, but I cannot find a stable balance even when I adjust the weights gradually. In both cases, my geometric spot‑size results were poor. Please suggest optimization techniques to achieve a better trade‑off, or alternative approaches to indirectly control these parameters.

Note: candidate glass materials must have hardness greater than 450.

Thank you in advance for your support.
