Image pickup and observation equipment for endoscope
First Claim
1. Image pickup and observation equipment for an endoscope which has an optical observation system to make it possible to observe the image of a subject formed on the image-forming face in the image-forming optical system using the eye lens optical system via fiber bundle, characterized in that it is provided with a driving means to vibrate at least part of the image-forming optical system of the endoscope using the said optical observation system by the amount to meet the pitch of the arrangement of the fibers on the image-forming face.
