OPTICAL SYSTEM FOR IMAGING AN OBJECT, AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE OPTICAL SYSTEM

The invention relates to an optical system (1) for imaging an object (O), comprising a first objective lens (14A, 14B), a first image stabilizing unit (16A, 16B) and a first image plane (24A, 24B), wherein, as seen from the first objective lens (14A, 14B) in the direction of the first image plane (24A, 24B) along a first optical axis (10, 11), the first objective lens (14A, 14B) is disposed first, followed by the first image stabilizing unit (16A, 16B) and then the first image plane (24A, 24B), wherein the first image stabilizing unit (16A, 16B) has a first optical unit (19A, 19B) and a second optical unit (20A, 20B), wherein the first optical unit (19A, 19B) is disposed between the first objective lens (14A, 14B) and the second optical unit (20A, 20B), wherein the first optical unit (19A, 19B) is embodied to be rotatable about a first axis of rotation (22A, 22B) and wherein the second optical unit (20A, 20B) is embodied to be rotatable about a second axis of rotation (23A, 23B). The second optical unit (20A,
