  • a white light source for producing visible light;

    at least two dichroic mirrors, each dichroic mirror selecting light having a particular wavelength band from said visible light so as to transmit said light having said particular wavelength band therethrough, each dichroic mirror reflecting light components having particular wavelength bands that are different from said particular wavelength band transmitted therethrough so that each dichroic mirror transmits light having a different wavelength band therethrough, said dichroic mirrors being arranged opposite to each other with respect to said white light source; and

    condenser lenses, each condenser lens being combined with a dichroic mirror;

    said dichroic mirrors reflecting light components not transmitted therethrough towards said white light source.
