Système optique convergent destiné à capter le flux lumineux émis par une source, pour le concentrer sur une surface ou dans une direction déterminée. On peut distinguer les condenseurs dioptriques, constitués uniquement par des lentilles, et les condenseurs catoptriques qui utilisent des miroirs. Le système le plus simple est formé par une lentille convergente ou par un miroir concave. 2, record 2, French, - condenseur%20optique
