The usual form ofrapid rectilinear (Fig. 505) is symmetrical,consisting of two similar combinations,with the diaphragm between. As itsname indicates, it overcomes distortion,and gives also a large aperture com-bined with flatness of field. The wide-angle rectilinear (Fig. 506) has a smaller?iiperture, and the combinations are placedcloser together, being, it will be noticed,also larger in proportion to the size of theaperture than those of the ordinary recti-
